First outing for this mixed media half belt courtesy of the Aero blowout sale earlier this summer:

Collar needs a little training but overall I dig it. Doesn't have the heft of all leather nor my other wool coats so this offers a nice alternative.

Looks incredible from the back, especially with that hat

Quit hiding the hats Jonathan!

Haha! My jacket picture setup is pretty rudimentary involving propping my phone in a small drawer of a clothes valet stand. Decent height for jackets, not so good for hats. If I stand further back some of the detail is lost. If I hunch over it doesn't optimize the jacket. And if I don't, you get a nice shot up my nostrils.

A brief respite from the heat is set to pass but I did get two days in the y’2. I’ve grown to love it. I wasn’t sure at first but it really hits the mark. I love the outer sleeve seam. Lined up perfectly with the shoulders. Beautiful color and I can wear it to work without a care. Hopefully we get a sunny, cool, dry fall.

Finally got my old man Logan jacket.

Used Iron Heart indigo duck canvas type 1 straight out of the box from Germany. Could not wish for a better fit!

The canvas jackets age really well!

I love duck canvas in indigo. Ages differently than denim (you'll see), but very cool. This is the best Canadian Tuxedo outfit I have seen in a long time. The hat and the jacket make it work.

@Will Zach
Thank you for the Canadian Tuxedo compliment
I've never owned duck canvas before. The indigo type seems quite rare, does not come up at all with google. Only this IH stuff and N&F.
IH does have a "fade gallery" for this fabric though. I could not tell it apart from regular denim visually, but it definitely feels different.

It's much much quicker to fade. What takes years with denim will take months (or weeks) with that cnavas. I wish they would re release it. I'd go back to IH for a type 3 in that.

I was eyeing that up myself but you pulled the trigger faster. Looks good on you.

For a couple minutes a day it’s perfect though. I figure maybe they are bandwidth throttling my posts

But that would take some skill.

It’s working now. I’m off to speed read and post what I can.
