What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[AbbaDatDeHat]

Greetings All:
Today....at the risk of taking a beating on the fit i had to go with the Ralph Lauren Polo Country suede A2. I’m not much on fashion brands but the color on this piece goes well with a lot of my hats. A very nice suede and well made jacket nevertheless.
Be well. Bowen

Much better than a Durable my toddler could wear.

Yeah but that Durable could bring in five of those. XD

Don't remind me. I thought I was doing a good deed and you blotted out my sunshine, Mr. Eclipse.

TBH, I actually went through the same mental gymnastics you did. And arrived at the same conclusion. Let someone else run down that rabbit hole.

No name jacket. First morning been cool enough to wear. First time for more than 2 minutes anyway.

That's a great fit!

Thanks jacketjunkie! Got it at a car show in the spring and hasn't been cool enough to wear it. Only bad thing is someone has torn/ cut out the liner.

8.30 am and it’s already too warm for the ELMC Roadstar [emoji22]

Looks like it’s over to you guys in the Northern Hemisphere ...

In six months I’ll be bitching about the fact I can’t wear those! Change of season is everything. I couldn’t live without the brutal cold or stifling heat and humidity. In short, I’m only happy when I’m complaining.

I flip flop between this and the Lawrence for coolest Perfecto (along with Sportclad's version).

Thanks! Maybe I'll wear the Lawrence tomorrow.

Very cool CR. Looks like a racer wore it too, based on the numbers on the back. I haven't heard of the Endura brand (or make?). What can you tell us about it?

I’ll get better pics in the light but man this Vanson is an absolute tank. Beautiful, thick and grainy comp weight cow. Easily one of the nicest Vanson I’ve owned. Feels brand new. Thanks @jpk_NJ and @JMax. I appreciate it!!

Thankya - unfortunately, there is next to zero information (that I can find) on the Endura brand. They were located in California (per the label) back in the 60's. I would best compare the brand to Lancer leathers, Brooks/Kehoe, and of course Bates - however the leather is not of the quality of a vintage Bates.

The one feature I really appreciate on this Endura is the snapless collar - very clean looking imo.

Possibly the best fitting of this jacket or any Vanson motorcycle jacket.
