What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[VestCoast]

Seconded. I'd like to check out some other Japanese brands but by the looks of it, and compared to all the other trucker jackets I've had and tried on, the IH's Type 3 is by far the best.
I've been wearing mine whenever the weather would allow it, had it on at work the whole day, every day and it's just a perfect thing to live in.

As for the price, it's up there alright but not significantly more so than anything from Levi's heritage collection. These are all over $300 and for that kinda cash, it definitely makes more sense investing into an IH.

I've got a fair amount of IH pieces that I love but their general design seems to be pretty safe--basically overbuilt and overspecced classics. I also wear a lot of Stevenson Overall, they have some incredibly cool stuff with very nice detailing. They don't really build anything with fabrics that punch at the IH weight class, but here in Texas lighter clothing gets you a little further most of the time.

No I haven’t sold out to all that is good in this world and sworn off leather like “someone” we all know but it’s still a touch too warm and humid for leather, perfect for a light cotton Harrington though.

Thanks Terry. I see you continue to bring the A game to jacket world every day.

@jonesy86 Good to see you're enjoying your well deserved retirement! Hawaii it is? Have you met Woody Harrelson yet? I heard he's living on Hawaii as well and enjoys his days without all the fuss our modern society confronts us with, playing board games. I imagine that to be quite the life!

Thanks JJ. I think Woody hangs out a couple of islands over, but I'll keep a look out for him.

I love that color. I just don't think I can pull it off.

karlito,
I think you’re probably wrong about that. Cordovan, or burgundy, is actually one of the easier wearing leathers for a jacket because it goes with almost anything. It is also quite lovely and therefore attracts a lot of compliments.

Shoot Ton, if you like that jacket you should order it now and let Ciano do the holding off on making it for you. With any luck it might be here by Christmas.

That tweed cape is stunning. You, sir, have STYLE.

 

[jonesy86]

I dig it. Something like that is on my short list for sure.

I was way off on the cone mills white oak denim extra large long size, so I ordered this hickory striped in large. I think it fits well.

I have a pair of eyelet near the collar added to join the outer and facing around the collar.
