What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Seb Lucas]

I'm not wearing leather much any more but get a lot out of the lesser known Baracuta G4 - the one without knits.

Rainy season here, goatskin again

2 quick outings today.

That brown Californian looks great, must be a size 40 long?
Also, the Eastman J-100 is the winner this season, isn’t it? You’ve posted it more than any of your other ones, if memory serves well. Perfect fit in both too!

@dannyk
If you refere to the picture on post #12845, it's a "one star" "brando"jacket by Schott produced in 2011.
They call it the PER2, it's in a nice Horsehide, with NOS brass hardware.

Oh man for that price I think I have to buy it. I couldnt remember this is where I saw it. Thanks for reminding me. The other place that has a good one is BK, but for 400!! I dont care how well built it is, for a hat I am not spending 400.

Wearing the Daytona again today, with the riding armour removed its perfectly comfortable for day to day.

'King love this jacket!

Thanks, I’m pretty sure the Cali must be a 40L even though it’s just tagged as 40.

The J-100 is very easy to wear and I do like it a lot but I am trying to get some wear into it, it looks a little too new still so it’s been a deliberate operation to wear it a lot [emoji38]

From the "But there's room to layer"! camp comes this gargantuan RL cross zip. Nice cognac color to it tho. It's a super easy jacket to wear with sleeve diameter rivaling my Carhartt Detroit. The leather is pretty although it does not feel as it will ever develop any significant creases. I may have my tailor trim the sleeves and body for a better fit. Not sure...to me this jacket is quietly whispering in my ear
" sell me and buy a natty Bootlegger"

I usually don’t say listen to the voice. The TFL effects can ruin us. But hell buy a natural cxl bootlegger and be done with it. You can put this up on eBay or grailed where RL will pull in a decent sum. Put it towards that and then probably sell that for some super limited awesome looking Vanson E hahaha. But if you like the general idea of this one, I say go get the Aero and call it a day.

Also why “it grained” I edited it to make sense. “Or grailed” I’m not sure if you read that properly but I’m sure you got my point! Ha

My problem is I hold everything against Aero. They are my gold standard. Few jackets can bear that terrible burden and most get the boot! Ironically I don't own a single Aero right now. And that's a problem.

It’s amazing to, cause you’ve had quite a few really nice custom ones. Though I’ve decided custom is so expensive compared to return value. Other than maybe adjusting sleeve length I’m out of the custom game.
