I work in healthcare so I’ve been extremely busy and preoccupied. In any case a few weeks ago the last time I was on, I posted a photo here on my way to a photo shoot with my fiancé. There were two themes 1930s and 50s early 60s. I didn’t include all of the 50s shots I didn’t want to post 20 photos. I included 0 of the 1930s as that was suit and tie costume. In any case I hope you all enjoy these as much as I did taking them. The hat was from a local store here in Buffalo called O’Connells, jacket is 50s Sears Oakbrook. Jeans are Pure Blue Japan, and shoes are George Cox Strummer Shoes. George Cox have been making Creepers in the UK for forever, including this model. Which they renamed after Joe Strummer (Vocals/Guitar The Clash) after he bought several pairs over the years.

From today's COVID-19 "restricted gathering" Saturday morning Harley ride. Cool start at 12C ( by our standards !)
Jacket is my Perth Western Australia ( By Sinnika leather here in Perth) Eastman Luftwaffe goat hide exact "copy".
Jacket now some 20+ years old and has had some "adventures" over the years.
IDENTICAL to my original 1990 Eastman Luftwaffe I bought new , but lighter goat hide and lining, YKK zippers.
My only ever "bespoke" jacket , effectively "made to measure".
This does not get worn often now , considers itself "semi-retired" , a bit like myself. Too many others y'see !

I forgot to say one thing. The one at the table where my fiancé’s arms are up and I’m making a fist. The photographer wanted me to throw a piece of popcorn in her mouth and we nailed it first try. That was her excitement and me being proud of myself haha

Too damn cool, both of you.

Took a stroll in my stupid-heavy HWM, the thought process being that the government spoke up against going out unnecessarily and with this thing weighting me down, I wouldn't come far anyway.

I'm sure that's not the case in Germany too but here in Croatia, for the whole month now, the government has been recommending everyone to stay at home because the disease spreads much slower outside which is why it is recommended to spend as much time outside, in fresh air, as long as we don't leave our homes because staying put spreads the virus.

I am acting accordingly.

These are brilliant! You guys look awesome. And you know what, you just made me realize I need to keep my Sears Oakbrook. I think it fits us the same and if it looks 30% as good on me, no freaking way I'm letting go of that jacket.
