What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Hh121]

Was this jacket this grainy when it was new? Or was it pretty smooth and the grain appeared with wear?

It was like that when new(It was @sweetfights jacket, the jacket is in almost new condition), definitely rare to see in LW jacket.
Some area shows grain almost like cowhide, from my amateur eyes.

I can definitely say that graining was there since day one. A brilliant jacket. You could order a few more black 4oz plus horsehide Suburban's from Lost World's and not get one this good looking.

True, I can testify that:
My sold 3.5 oz Suburban 44

Returned defective 4oz plus Suburban 42

Yep- your current Suburban is a keeper for sure!

Yes.

Bates makes a fine jacket. The shoulder gussets are 4" deep, under arm footballs with vents and a super rigid kidney panel. This one is a good 1.5-2" longer than the others I've owned. I'm happy enough with this one to endure the ongoing postal search for my MIA Bootlegger (which left Sweden on 12/5) but hasn't been seen since...so coffee bean cross zip it is.

That one looks really nice! Love cross-zips with mutton collars.

I’m keeping my thumbs crossed the bootlegger will turn up, but really I’m so angry at Swedish postal service right now!

I'd imagine the Nordic version of Newman to be blonde, extremely buff and have a superior compensation package. Lol.

That looks great, and it does look a bit longer than the norm. BTW, I no longer am selling my brown Bates. This photo makes me glad I decided to keep it, though this brown is darker than the brown on mine. I like the darker shades. Well done.

That is a damn fine jacket! The leather looks incredible and it fits you great. (Ah well, which of your jacket doesn't...)

Greetings A-1:
Good to see you again.
And good to see the best sleeve wrinkles on the lounge. Imho

Much obliged! But wait until you see @Superfluous after another round of rowing...

Where're your bellbottoms??

All in good time Matey!!! All in good time.

Here's an idea of the kind of Jeans I'm making and selling.

I do some plain bellbottoms too of course, I like the light acid-washed faded Denim, the best best Bellbottoms are recylced from GWG brand Jeans (Great western Garment Co.)

Good prices honest to god, and I'm broke and crazy enough to do on-demand work.

You might want a pair and start copying my styles, who knows? Haha.

I wrote a review of the Melvins show if anyone is interested, it's a 20 minute read 10,000 characters long...I'm honestly hesitant to post it here unless people are ok with some stronger language?

Unless I get the go ahead I'll have to leave it alone.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Another good fit Tony.
Congrats
