What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[jeo]

I need one of these

Me too, but RMC stopped making the Wayward. Over the years, I have searched high and low for a Wayward in my size, but to no avail.

Yes, instead they made what is IMO a much better version, the Nelson or the Disfarmer (same jacket just in deerskin)

I'm surprised that you haven't been able to find one. They don't come up often, but they are out there. There are two on yahoo auctions Japan right now.

I do like the looks of the jacket. View attachment 289122

Entire outfit is great. That's how you wear cuffed jeans!

Cold Sunday, but Cal warms the winter.

I was thinking just yesterday how much I miss my padded Cal. It'd have been a perfect fit now.

Ship John Wills showed up today. I didn’t plan on going for a walk but since it’s 40 and raining lets give it a test.

So it’s (already) there! Am interested to learn how you will like it, and if you manage to include it in your rotation of great jackets in the long run.

Only the second time I've worn this vintage Schott perfecto since getting it last year. I definitely need to wear this more!

Yes sir, you do. It’s perfect on you.

Thanks @jeo. Yes it's really well made, my best fitting jacket for sure. The collar is 4" at its widest point lol hope it's not too 70s vibe

Nah once you start living in it the collar will curl up and look amazing!

Thanks man!

Wasn’t super fast. Quoted 8-12 weeks and took 16. Sizing is perfect. Pleasingly less stiff than expected. Should mold to me pretty quickly. Construction is solid. Only issue is that it wont be the right weather for this jacket for about 3.5 months.

Thanks- no experience with Japanese Auctions but may be the only outlet for these pieces.

That definitely fits you well but i get why you do not wear this as much because of all the other grail jackets you wear all the time.

Thanks for the take on the collar, I'll try to shape it like the ones we see on those older bates if possible at all

The Nelson and Disfarmer are shorter than the Wayward -- too short for me.

For the longest time, I didn’t feel comfortable bidding on yahoo auctions Japan, but then I discovered buyee.com. It’s super easy and safe, never had an issue.

Haha thanks! Sometimes I get to thinking that the vintage pieces are the true grails.

No need to shape it, just wear it a lot..the collar will naturally take on a nice shape.

Interesting. That’s one of the things I don’t like about the wayward on me...the back is a little too long and because of the fact that there are no side panels, it tends to billow out a bit in bottom back when worn open since or it bunches up when I zip it up. I also like the fact that they removed the extra piece of leather on the collar on the Nelson/Disfarmer.

Also, the wayward is an older model and not even sure if it’s Shinki. Don’t know where it’s made either. If anyone has any insight on this, it would be very much appreciated.

Once you get the jacket, how does shipping/tariff work? I really don't want to know but I have to know lol
