What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Al 916]

Just checking out the results of some tlc for this 50s/60s white label Harley Davidson cafe Racer, which arrived to me this week with a quite significant cigarette smell attached to it. A bath dip and soak, the drying/wearing process and a coat of Pecards later and I'm really pleased with the results (and am now able to wear it without feeling like I've smoked a pack of 20). Luckily this time I managed to do it without any drama as per another of my threads. Here's some pics for anyone who's interested - View attachment 478965 View attachment 478966 View attachment 478963 View attachment 478964

Have a look at Gliptone GT11 as a conditioner, see what you think.

And my last summers Model A wash adventure (bottom of the page)

Superdry again, and out hiking in the woods again.

Excellent fit over what proved to be an unwisely-chosen thick sweater, as of course after a few miles at a decent pace in warming up conditions, I was too hot.

More Schott spam from me.

New Perfecto I picked up, I tried this on with a slimmer sweater underneath, rather than the hoodie I wore in my original fit picks, and it looks significantly less boxy than it originally did. As others said, it will hopefully break in even further to conform to me. I liked this piece and now it's growing on me further.

Gorgeous colour on that piece. We don't see suede too often here.

Cardigan weather

Kinda grey and foggy but not too cold. Good day for a waxed cotton jacket. An M-65 liner makes all the difference.

I really like this one. If it were me, I think I’d like it enough to pay to get the waist/opening taken in a bit.

That’s not a bad suggestion. I think I’d wait until this is broken in to see how this changes, and reconsider then

This leather really reminds me of Shinki. Or I guess to be more accurate, Shinki really reminds me of this leather

I spoke with Charles today. He has some exciting plans for home grown peas at HPA, along with an entire catalog of other stuff…so rather than hop on the buzz, I am waiting for his release. If there’s one thing I love, it’s supporting small operations based in the US, recreating the great outerwear of the past!

Don’t look for one that has the stars on the buttons.
YOU will go mad.
Lovely example of a fine coat.

The king of the deck jackets!

Gosh… another rainy weekend. My Kapital jacket is keeping me in check.

You guys probably already know this trick… wearing a trucker cap keeps the rain specks off your glasses!
