What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Superfluous]

I've been largely away from here lately... been a bit busy...

Congratulations Dude. You definitely married up! Treat her like the princess that she is, thank her every day for sharing her life with you, and make her happiness your central priority. Everything else will fall into place. Happy trails.

For a chilly motorcycle ride, it's gotta be the Buco. @tmitchell59

You do that Jacket Well! It has the same great fit on you. This pattern was widely copied, I am assuming Buco made the 1st in this style of Police jacket. I've owned this style by another maker, loved the fit on that one also. They were made for some comfort with the skin protection.

Nice to see it out! One of the Kings wear through.

I've seen many of this style, but not too recently.

Haha thanks! I certainly did. Already doing my best to do that, but it doesn't hurt to have that advice reinforced. Much appreciated!

The neck hole? Do you mean when the collar is buttoned up?

Both when buttoned up and when laying flat. I can button it up but it’s really tight (and I have a slender neck). When laying flat, the back of the neck is too high and tight (similar to the “aero pattern issue”) which causes some of the jackets weight to rest on the neck. The material is soft enough so this doesn’t cause discomfort but had this been a leather jacket it would have been a much bigger issue.

My new old Aero half belt in 4 oz CXL steerhide View attachment 387884

Those cxl steer hide or HH age so nicely. Great look as it gets beaten up
I want an Aero j106 or maybe have Johnson’s build something in this leather

Not the ideal color to hide with in a crowd, OK maybe other than striking binmen…

What Jacket Did You Take To The Beach Today?

I got this CAL in the mail and immediately went outlaw and drove my Prius 27 mph in a 25 mph zone down the hill to the beach.

Jonesy, some photos obviously failed to attach. Please attach the ones of you IN the surf.

Not going body surfing in this one, it certainly needs no breaking in. LOL

C/mon brother. Don't go gettin conservative on us. You have a reputation to uphold now. Many of us are living the island life vicariously through you and WE want to go swimming in our leather jackets.

Have you ever had a beach party for all of your jackets? I would love to see the reaction of people with you and all of your jackets hanging on beach chairs at the beach.

It might trigger the wrath of native spirits that guard the island to grow a new volcano.

Jonesy, your taste in lids and jackets is only exceeded by the scenery in your pics.
