What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Marc mndt]

one of my favorite jackets and the whole outfit is killer. What are those jeans?

Thanks for your compliment. Jeans are RRL.

I love the versatility of this jacket. Great for a night out yet also perfectly suited for a day at the office.

Thanks! Are those fades real genuine or pre-distressed? If pre-distressed they got to be the nicest I’ve seen.

C&J's?

Yes, Skye 3.

On Monday Crockett and Jones will lounge their webshop. Can you imagine they didn't have one until now!?

I also read that they offer mto and mtm at their Paris store. Wonder if I can get a pair of c&j in a fun color like green for instance.

Pre distressed. I'm a huge fan of RRL jeans. They look great, they don't loose their shape and they're indestructible.

Yep, I heard about the webshop, for the time being it will not cover EU.
I've got all my C&J's from retailers. Once I've used their mail order for a shell belt.

Looks awesome. How is the mobility? Can you zip it up and drive or hold a phone to your ear for 5 minutes?

Glad to see that jacket went to the right person! Fit looks great on you!

Thank you! Its a good start to vintage jackets, I love how relaxed the leather is. It might be sacrilege but I'm having the sleeves trimmed/shortened so I can wear this better.

5* CR. I like it a lot, it keeps me warm with the quilted lining.

That looks so much better with a little wear already, nice!

The Y’2 Leather vest came in from Japan (finally). The teacore Horsehide is similar to the one on the Iron Heart IHJ-35 cafe, which is to say freaking amazing. It is cut more like a jacket with no sleeves and a little thinner to wear even indoors. The stitches are straight and consistent. The vest feels great on. Keeps the torso warm without becoming heated.

I have described the Iron Heart IHJ-35 cafe jacket as a heavy quilted blanket that falls and folds in your hands. The Y’2 Leather vest does the same, except that it’s thinner and lighter, yet substantial enough to feel that the maker has taken pride in constructing this vest.

Apologies for the crass photos below, taken quickly early this morning while still in my PJs.

Looks ace! I need another good vest, too.

It’s a bit ironic that I like this paltry H&M jacket as much as I do. Ironic and sad. Nevertheless, it is what it is. That’s my legacy. The mall jacket guy. LOL. See you at the food court or Ruby Tuesday’s, Musicland, etc...

It’s not as surprising as discovering that Pretty in Pink was actually filmed in Southern California.

Discovering a jacket like that at an H&M is like discovering a Cinnabon shop next door as you walk out of the Ruby Tuesday.

Indeed. And as an added bonus, $1750 less than the Fine Creek equivalent. This jacket is very much like horseshoes and handgrenades...in this instance...close enough.

Damn, that’s funny. FC is now trying to expunge this post from the internet.
