What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[RossRYoung]

Couldn’t disagree but more but hey, that’s what opinions are for, right? Surely this jacket can function as ‘workwear’, because that’s what it was designed and intended for. It doesn’t need to be vintage to be workwear. Would you make the same statement if this was made by say, Carhartt or Iron Heart?

Yes, I also wear my high visibility when needed. In fact, I need to wear it now, gotta go empty the dumpsters in the landfill.



Btw, they’re terrible jackets that really only have the function of being obvious.

RMCNZ D1

l would like to thank Marc mndt for his advice regarding urad. I bought a tub for another jacket that I have always thought was a little flat. It worked a treat. I then plucked up the courage to use it on the D1, incredible results. The jacket is approx 25 years old, this stuff has brought new life into it . Thanks

I always say that if a leather jacket can't take it, it shouldn't have been a leather jacket.
I am thus in the team "do with it what you want, but do not babying it".

Hey, it’s a really nice jacket and I was just a bit shocked that you would subject it to the potential of damage like that. But certainly only my opinion.
You have a different one and that’s alright, it’s your jacket.

I agree.

Everything is for everyday.

FW Wool A1 jacket

That fit is spot on perfect!! A little Urad will brighten it up and hide the faux ageing. I’ve heard the liners in these were quite delicate. Same with some of the LVC line Aero produced…

The liner is very thin and it's like the liner got distressed along with the rest of the jacket. I presume the whole garment was tossed in some kind of drum and beat up, along with some hand distressing along edges and so on.

Out for a warm winter day ride with the Buco. 62 degrees today in Wash DC! Last ride of the year.. (Unfortunately, no one here to take my picture.)

I figured that out with watches. What’s the point of spending $$$$ only to wear them on “special occasions.” I use my stuff like I stole it.

I certainly don’t baby my jackets, not even my Thedi’s who I’m really fond of. I wear them everyday and go (almost) everywhere in them. But if I were to do something where I was likely to get dirty or be in a situation where my clothes might get damaged I’d wear something less expensive.

I don't wear leather jacket when trimming claws of my pet cat.

This is how I feel when I want to wear my majestic. “Will it be raining hard, is there going to be ketchup within 50 yards, what percent chance is there that I’ll be in close proximity to olive oil….?”

some progress on the RMC J100

Those two jackets couldn’t possibly fit any better. Eye am also very jealous of the flow. Eye’d happily go bug eyed for a pelt like that on top of my dome.
