What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Send me a PM in a week and I’ll let you know if I was courageous enough to do it.

I have thought about doing this many times myself, but I dont know if I could either? Looking at the pic you can come pretty close and maybe clean. I'm looking forward to the outcome if you do give it a go. As cool as I think fringe jackets are in a different sorta way. I couldn't rock it either.

I'm in love with this Kehoe that just arrived!
I'm posting these here for those who might appreciate the fringe.
I will be giving it a "haircut" this week and using the fringe strips as zipper pulls.

Please don’t do it handymike!
That jacket is just perfect as it is. I know you of all people can find a way to make this work. Any man who can wear a rug turned jacket can definitely rock a few fringes.

The Vanson Daredevil in Z150 is quickly proving to be one of my favorite jackets to grab for a ride. Versatile, functional, and comfortable on the bike

The rug coat is a whole different beast! It is amazing as is...well, almost... I’m considering adding a chain-stitched skull patch. :)
Do you reckon the fringe can be removed professionally without leaving trace? is it an add on stitched or part of the panels? That cafe racer fits you perfect and the Kehoes are super cool jackets, I love mine. Wearing it today. :)

You have my complete support in this. It seems like it fits you perfectly though honestly, I can't say because of the stupid fringe. It doesn't look good, it takes all the attention away from the jacket, from the fit and you. Looks try-hard. Liberate this jacket from the horrible faith nature bestowed upon it.

You know you'll never like it the way it is. Either a shave or sell it but seeing how well it fits you - again, at least that's my best guess right now - you ought to give it a chance.

@handymike .. I’m with you on giving it a trim, but maybe do it in stages, I would def get rid of the fringe on the arms but maybe you could live with the chest and back? At least take a few pics of the process as I’d like to see it all get whittled away.
