What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[handymike]

That's a great find! My N3b parka is a Spiewak "golden fleece". Looks good- how do you like it?

Found it NOS on ebay recently. There are a few left. At the price point (under $200) i think it's a great pick up. Workmanship is pricepoint good. Like buying USA made goods. Just got it so the jury is out on the cut. It feels weird having the leather stop, which you feel against you, and the knit continue. Also tend towards sweatshirts this time of year which hang below the knit. Not 100% sure i like it, but am happy to figure it out at $200 rather than $1,000.

No, just a handmade coyote fur hat made out in the Western US somewhere.

Navy cold-weather/flame resistant deck jacket. With the wind chill, the temps were in the single digits for most of the day. This current-issue USN deck jacket handled the cold weather quite well with only a thermal shirt and medium-weight sweater underneath. I'm very pleased with this latest acquisition!

And speaking of photos, THOR’s photos always feature such interesting backgrounds and locations around the NYC waterfront.

Thank you @seres! That's one good thing about working on the water and starting your day at 5am; you get to enjoy lots of pretty scenery

This reminds me - did you get rid of that beret thing?

Man, I start my day at 6am and I ride 8 miles right along the river and I don't see any scenery as pretty as this. Just fog and bad smell and... Cold. Every day. Fog and cold. There and back. Each day...

I still have my berets. Thanks for reminding me. It's the season now so I should pull them out.

Windchill had it in the single digits last night and today. I was warm and toasty though. Broke out my trusty Viet Nam Era N3-B

You can do no wrong David. Total winter winner. Can I take you to Vegas?

Yeah, but when that wind comes tearing through the Verazzano straits early in the morning you wish you could just go back to a nice, warm bed. We used to have to wait for the bus on Shore Road in Bay Ridge. I still shiver when I think of it.

Shore Road is where my father-in-law lived as a boy. He used to sled right down into the frozen River before the bridge.

Case,
I can't thank you enough for this little bit of info! I look terrible in most photos and I would love to be more photogenic. I'm going to give both of these tips a try.

El, lets see your modeling pose!

regius,
I'm still working on it. I should have a new Thedi coming my way early in the new year and I will try to have my modeling skills ready by then!
