What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Getting a brand new jacket to appear presentable is more annoying than I remember. Again, thanks to @MrProper for this one!

Been wearing my new to me Suburban.
It's i think the jacket with the largest carbon footprint in the world.

IT was made in NYC, shipped to Canada, sold back to a lounger in NYC, then it went to Holland, back to Canada and then back to Belgium, it's final place of residence.

It's a really nice discreete everyday jacket when not on the bike, i really like it.
The pattern is roomy and comfortable without being too oversized, it allows for easy layering.
I understand now why @red devil always told me his Suburban was his favourite travel jacket.

This more conservative style really suits your already edgy look (compliment). Excellent!

Thank you, and so true! I wasn't really going for a full vintage look but now that you mention it I will definitely try a more formal tucked shirt next time, I just love the way the Menlo drapes and how easy to wear it is with almost anything!

Why thank you Sir.

I have over 200 leather jackets on 3 industrial size racks:

Military
Motorcycle
Designer

I have completely fallen out of Love (temporarily) with military jackets so I have not worn any for a while.

I tend to pick 2 from the motorcycle rack, 2 from designer rack, to wear Mondays to Thursdays then I'd often pick a high end one for Fridays.

Weekends I pick the jackets that best fits my outfits.
It’s good to hear that I am not the only one with over 200 jackets on industrial size racks! Do you manage to fit them in your apartment/house?

I have a separate warehouse where I keep the racks and out of rotation jackets. I keep 20-30 in my house for rotation, but I don’t have any system to rotate them. I’ll just pick what ever feels good at the moment considering the weather/season and activities of the day in question.
