What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Al 916]

Vanson for me as well. I forgot how warm these E’s are. Legit winter jacket. I still believe it to be one of the very best crosszips available. For me it’s absolutely the mutts nuts.

Did you make the collar Ton?

And a special O/T mention for my Triumph Stoke boots. As I've said before, I believe Everything Is For Everyday and these boots are CE 2/2/1 for riding, but also after weeks of relentless bloodstains-on-the-lining agony they overnight suddenly broke in and became comfortable enough to walk in for miles. So now they're the boots I grab every time, for everything.

Doesn't hurt that they look cool and all.

The jacket goes without saying... but the JEANS.....

I wouldn't wear it (anymore) either, but Ton makes it look kinda cool . In any case a cool picture.

"but Ton makes it look kinda cool".

Very annoying habit of his!!

Bell bottoms or I die! These are actually pretty tame compared to some others I have. LOL.

I'm out in my old Barbour International today. This has been my default jacket for over a decade and I love it.

It feels like it's part of me and every time I wear it I feel a pang of disappointment that there have been days when I haven't worn it.

It is endlessly versatile. Because you can wear it open, or with the belt fastened around the back to trim the fit how it's needed. So it works over just a t shirt on a chilly summer evening, or a thick sweater for a December hike like today. Or over a Kevlar shirt when I had the motorcycle crash that left me broken in hospital.

We've got history, me and this Barbour. Our stories are intertwined.

It is always great to hear a personal story behind a jacket. Looks like a waxed fabric. Did you ever re-wax it? I recently re-waxed my old Gustin field jacket and started wearing it every day, lol.

You are so right. If I wore bell bottoms I would look like an idiot (that I am), but Ton somehow pulls it off. Damn.

Yes, it's 8oz waxed cotton. I had it rewaxed by Barbour* but that was a couple of years ago now so it's due another go.


*Patched and rewaxed actually, after it got ripped in the crash. They made it good as new. Better, actually, as the repairs mean something.

Today, no leather jacket, but a vest that I got as a liner for under my jackets. Without it is now too cool with 5 - 0 degrees Celsius.

I like that passion towards your special jacket! With a history like yours, this one will never be out of fashion or even remotely uncool.

Dude, that whole outfit is perfect!

With this vest, I can wear my Thedi in freezing temperatures. Good, because I love this jacket.

Natural habitat!

I had a few rainstorms in my LW, and the grain just went wild after that. Arguably the nicest horsehide around.
