What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

G-1 horsehide jacket. Underarm footballs and full action back. Just wow. Only wish I tried G-1's sooner.

Rainbow Country makes the nicest G-1’s, and that’s a real beauty.

No name/label jacket bought on eBay last week. Best fitting leather I've ever had, thick hide too. Just taking it off to sleep the last few days. My keys just fit the zipper pocket on the left cuff

Aero Premier Highwayman in Black Badalassi Steer. I recently gave this one the hot water treatment. I'm not necessarily recommending it. There will be shrinkage, but I've done it successfully with several Aero jackets.

Great look, hat got extra points

Nice jacket and nice photo!
What a coincidence. We're wearing Cal on same day. That's great.

Wife: “you are not and never were in the Navy!”

Me: “but I did drive a pontoon boat down the Chicago river last summer. TWICE!”

Thank you @JMax for posting the link to this Windward in Finds and Deals. My first vintage jacket and it’s perfect—I’d wanted something that was lined and could function like a winter coat. It’s in amazing condition (likely a new mouton collar?) and fits perfectly with a sweater.

Cheers,

David

Every time I wear my crosszip other than riding my wife gives me the same shit. “You going riding again”?

Resistol fedora and vintage Avirex jacket. I've seen similar jackets on eBay priced near or over $1000, not as nice as this one I found in 2007 at Salvation Army for $35.

That jacket is beautiful and looks great on you. You hit perfection on your first attempt at a vintage jacket?!? Even better.
