What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Superfluous]

most people would not notice how well your jacket is made.

Very true. That said, I notice and that is all that matters. I wear well made products for a selfish reason -- I am aware of and enjoy the quality. Whether anyone else notices is irrelevant.

This is extremely cool! Real wool and super thick wale corduroy! I love it. Sherpa type III is my go to in winter. Light, breathable but warm. I’d love to see more pics of this jacket.

There you go

Bingo. If we all cared more about what other people think, then we probably would be wearing more modern clothing, not leather jackets which are frankly rather antiquated pieces of outerwear. I like this stuff for me.

That is exactly the point, if I cared what people around me thought... I would be sporting a drastically different style

That’s the best looking HH I’ve ever seen from Schott, or anybody else for that matter!

Wearing leather for the first time in weeks. It’s simply been way too cold here lately so the only thing keeping me warm enough has been my Norwegian wool sweater and Schott pea coat. But today! Today it was only -1C/30F so happy as a kid on Christmas I slapped on a thin (!) wool sweater and my Hooch Hauler.

It's a disgrace you don't have one already! XD Seriously nice jacket and albeit shinier and softer, HH is quite similar to now-no-longer-my Speed Demon.

@ton312 it just might be, tho my first HH 618 was pretty nice, too. But this one is really beautiful and only getting better. Slowly, though.

The Dutch love ice skating. It's been a while since it was cold enough for the ponds to freeze over.

This is after your darkening treatment on the leather?

I have been to Warsaw three times, beautiful country. View attachment 309767

It's true, but 90 percent of Warsaw was demolished and razed to the ground (this is Germany's WWII-era leader's revenge for resistance). It was rebuilt right after the war. Colloquially speaking, Warsaw is a reproduction now. personally, I prefer Krakow which has survived in its entirety and is 100 percent original city together with Wawel, Wawel is the pearl of the crown, the icing on the cake , Kazimierz too, it is an old Jewish district .

I love old Levis products, especially the ones with the orange tag

Off topic, but “Alchemia” in Kazimierz ist in my top-3 of pubs worldwide. Part due to the polish lady that introduced me to the place but mostly - well because it’s just a great place!
