What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Darkblue storebrand Storm Rider.

my brandnew AERO Maxwell with some mods (different back and cuffs)

 

[Peacoat]

Now that is a clever way to get a full length and clean picture of jackets, or of anything. Never seen it done before.

Aero nailed the fit on this one. Congratulations on an excellent jacket.

Willie Watson Mfg Co. jacket

The C & O Railman's is peak wabash. The one that Willie Watson made for himself is so beautifully broken in. Nice pick up!

EDIT: Had questions about the jacket of @4444Design, above, but then saw he has another thread devoted to the jacket which answered my query. Nuthin' to see here!

Very nice Superfluous.
Tell us about the new car..!!

I was thinking the same thing. I don’t know what it is but it sure looks fast!

Tom71,
I can’t tell you how happy I was to read your post and see the photos. I should be receiving my own black Ryder tomorrow and I can only hope it looks and fits like yours!
I too went with the 3.5 oz horse and I’m happy to hear your assessment that it is a lighter easy wearing hide. Shout out to John D McCarter as well as he gave me some good tips and pointers that I incorporated into my order.

Thanks for the kind words!

In fact, the jacket Looks slightly better in real life, as arms and body are not as short as the picture-angle suggests. Took it to a rock-show last night and actually the waitress commented on it.

I can´t wait for the Pictures of your jacket. I am sure, you will like it just as I like mine!

Took my new car and my Himel Frobisher to an early morning car gathering.

Here's my 1968 Martin Lane. Gifted to me by a good friend after his tour was over.

Such a cool gift. A jacket to be cherished forever.

“The old man” refers to a well worn Highwayman, of course!

It chilled down some but still ridable today in the Vanson Daytona X150

Thanks! I am quite happy with it. I love the phrase "peak wabash." That is quite apt.

My LW Ryder arrived and it is love at first sight! Unfortunately for you guys I am a very crappy photographer and this is the best I managed to do in the short time I had to snap a couple photos:

Not great I know but you get the idea. Stuart was perfect on the fit, nice and trim without being at all tight. I agree with Tom71 that the 3.5 oz horsehide is quite wearable right out of the box. The jacket is quite creaky and squeaky so I am wettimg it down with the water bottle and walking around the house windmilling my arms, normal behavior for one of us jacket people.
I will get some better pictures taken tomorrow and post them for you guys, this is too nice a jacket not to share with everyone.
