New Langlitz I scored in PDX this week at the shop on Division. Those guys (and gals) are awesome. They gave me a tour of everything and answered all my questions, then before I left I checked out their used jacket section and scored this 70's (we think) Columbia for a reasonable price. Cowhide with some sorta foam insulation under the lining and the obviously super cool mouton collar in grey. The Tony Lama "El Rey" ostrich skin boots are a recent thrift store score...$20!

The high today is 85f. It's supposed to rain for the ride home though so I'm wearing leather anyway.

Well I'm not really wearing this jacket today... I am indoors, breaking it in and loving it.

There's just something about a new jacket. You put it on and:

Just got back from a stint in Baja, Mexico. 115°f. Luckily, we had plenty of aqua agua.
No jackets

No jacket here today, alas - London is a blistering 34C. Much more of this and I'll just be a little pile of ash, longing for Autumn....

It's raining here in the PNW (surprise), yet it still fairly warm. Today I'm wearing a Father's Day gift; A 6 pocket (two breast, two snap shut hand-warmer and two deep inside map pockets) Biltwell denim vest.

I purchased it oversized so that I can wear it over my leather riding jacket.

My club patch:

One of two interior map pockets:

Yep, that's right. Denim on denim on denim.

Hi Ton,
It's Russet Vicenza

Hi Ton,
It's Russet Vicenza

It's beautiful man...really rich color, like butterscotch.

It's beautiful man...really rich color, like butterscotch.

I put a leather conditioner on it recently to help give the jacket a bit more water resistance (it seems Russet Vicenza absorbs water and stains more readily than the darker Vicenza leathers). The conditioner darkened the leather a bit and made the color richer, which made it look better imho.

36 here and hotter tomorrow. I'll never get used to this. I always hated summer and I'll always hate it. To hell with it where it belongs and where it came from. At this kinda heat, I might as well wear a jacket, it won't make much of a difference...

Hot, humid hell in Paris today. Almost heat stroked in an an all steel train with no A/C. Apparently French Engineers don't believe in expansion joints in the rails so a 20min train ride turned into over an hour because the rails were buckling.

Needless to say, I wasn't wearing a jacket today; would have liked to be naked if acceptable. Although, in my delirious dehydrated daydreams, I drifted off to Fall, where I can FINALLY appreciate my new G-8 that's been hangared in my closet since it arrived.

Monitor, I feel you pain...

Radz that looks awesome. Your whole get up is just ace.

And your house is adorable!


ps: no jacket for me at the moment. A heatwave in the south of England means I'm slopping around melted into a puddle.
