What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[tmitchell59]

Man that sure looks like a Thedi style..or does Thedi look like a BK style. Whatever, it is certainly a unique style that looks great. The Thedi buttons where the BK zips. The fit sure looks good.

I bought that jacket here, second hand. Probably 5-6 years old. It is a take on the jacket worn by Kurt Russel in the movie, Escape From New York. They used a vintage Monarch as a model. I've seen pictures of the Monarch. It is a great fitting jacket. It is marked as a size 44.

I believe this jacket is also available with buttons.

T did the zipper on the original Monarch also stop at the lapel and not zip up all the way? This is such a nice jacket. The Duke in goatskin that you moved recently looked really cool too, but the leather on this one looks very special.

I will look for a pic of the original Monarch. I don't recall the zipper length. Yes, the Victory HH is distinctive.

Did you buy this by any chance?

Another Victory HH in your size I think.

That thing's... Out of this world!

View attachment 141779 It’s basically winter here in Buffalo NY so the collar is out. 618 HH with collar and Red Wing Iron Ranger Muleskinnners on the bottom. And though my dog doesn’t make an appearance here. Rocking my friends dog rescue shirt.

Perfect!

No I did not buy that jacket. I have been looking at it, in fact, just this morning. I was considering it. I have been wanting another A-1 Cossack style, just think the Victory is too heavy for that style of jacket.

Agreed.
Not only too heavy, but too stiff for Cossack.
But it's absolutely perfect kind of leather for The Duke, no doubts. Actually the best to my taste) Terry, you've got a gem with this Duke!

The only thing that could make that jacket better is if Adrienne Barbeau was wearing it!

Aero Daytona, CXL FQHH, this is a keeper from the hidden treasure sale. Pulled up my jeans a bit too.

Aero Hooch Hauler in seal Vicenza today. This really is my favorite jacket, and the Vicenza leather is just beautiful, well worth the upcharge imo. Just look at the creases and grain on the sleeves [emoji7]

I know they call the other one Hardcore but this one is like 5x more hardcore. It's the most... hardcore cross zip that ever was. I love it.

@Hh21 Love that Vanson Rock and Roll.

Today I took my Police Road King to the parking lot for some slow speed work. Wore my Fox Creek with the liner in and a T-shirt. Even though it is 1.45 mm, it is so comfortable to wear, I didn't even notice I had it on.

Interesting. I didn't know about the weight. It certainly looks amazing. I also prefer lighter leathers for that style.

Great find there @Bigbenbs !!

Looks great and you’ve reminded me I need a pair of light wash jeans.

By the time I looked at the hidden treasures page there wasn’t really anything worth considering, which is probably a good thing....

Was there a lot of stuff at the beginning?

 

[Hh121]

Thanks, I doubt myself that I will have a courage to wear this jacket on campus, it's 100 times hardcore than I imagined.
