What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[MrProper]

Beautiful! Sometimes I envy you guys in colder climates. Then I put on my flip-flops, go outside in my shorts to drink my coffee, and it goes away .I do love the look of these shearlings though.

I would like to exchange my jacket for 365 days of flip-flop weather

Just a warning, it comes with two kids, and an old car.

what size jacket and what's your height/weight. I've been looking for an older one but can't figure out if I'm a 38 or 40. you've got a perfect fit. And is that nickel hardware? I thought they came in brass usually?

I'm 178cm and 75kg. Mine is size 38, comp weight, with brass hardware version. TBH, the hardware is a bit too bright to my taste, not sure how many years it would take to look vintage

It can get old. I’m not asking for sub-zero temps, but winter weather temps in the 40-50s would be cool. (I know you are chuckling at the thought that 50 degree temps are cold lol).

Leathertogs. The more I wear it, the more I love it. Amazing jacket.

View attachment 284808 Seriously in love with this jacket. I feel like I could be happy if this was my only leather jacket. All of these years I’ve felt nothing for cafe racers. Y’all have been posting pics of your cafe racers and I’ve been yawning. I bought this just to give the style an honest chance. I couldn’t imagine I would enjoy it this much.

when you zip, is the left bottom hem slightly longer than the right side? My jacket has this little problem and I just noticed in your photo the left side is hanging lower, but can't tell if that's just the angle.

On mine, it's like 1/3 to 1/2 inch longer on the left side. I've been trying to pull the other side down to stretch it out a little bit, but the leather keeps retracting back LOL. Like 60 year old leather won't give up.

Fist thing that came to my mind:

That's seriously cool.

I hadn’t even noticed that but I had a look again and you’re right. It’s more noticeable in the photo than IRL, mostly because I slightly lean to the left in the photo.

LOL, love the meme. Wondering if that's a design feature then for some odd reason. Or maybe how they all age over time. Who knows.

Yeah, I tug on mine to even it out. Works for about 20 minutes. Trying to permanently apply pressure some how to stretch it, but this thing is beast. Keeps snapping back. It's only noticeable when it's zipped up, so was curious.

Monitor you need to get out more ( although I do appreciate it is winter outside at the moment for you !)

I'm out all the time, I just don't feel comfortable taking selfies in public. Nothing wrong with it, just not my thing. Can't even say why...

Good Wear Imperial

Ps: Sorry about the prior post in the wrong thread

Same here -- just feels odd taking a posed photo of myself in public.

Hey, maybe we could start a thread where we ask strangers on the street to pose with us. Could be great.

Ended up wearing these 4 over the course of the day ,waxed n1 during early morning rain.
