What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

[Corky Corcovado]

I have not seen anything like that from Lost World. I really like that what's the back like? What size is your jacket? Did you order that or was it in their catalog?

I bought it direct from Stu via his eBay account. He accepted my offer. Size medium(42ish) with the Ryder half belt back. Unlined. Something I’d imagine finding on his sales page. Here and there he puts items up on eBay. I have a russet Ryder on the way from Japan. Coming back home.

I really envy you guys.

Leather jacket weather is gone here in Barcelona. Can't really wear them anymore, it's too hot for them. The moment I start walking I'm sweating like a pig.

Maybe use this as an excuse to add another dimension to your wardrobe? Linen suits, guayaberas, safari jackets, etc... Could be a summer specialty among the Mediterranean, South Cal, & New Orleans set here on the WJYW thread!

Personally, I prefer Guayaberas when the summer weather gets too humid in the Midwest US. Ideally in a 60% linen, 40% cotton blended fabric, but you can find 100% linen ones quite easily on eBay.

I used to have an insane Guayabera collection. Short sleeves, long sleeves, different colors. A few are left somewhere but I need to stock up a bit.

Day 24 of wearing my Chopper. Finally starting to get some break in. Love it just as much as the day it arrived. I have a strong feeling that is going to continue.

That's nice that it's from a TFL member, I think I saw that jacket recently. Hope it will fit well and can't wait to see your jacket when you get it.

Thats what I thought. Definitely a link between the two but separate makers. Just like Langlitz and Classic.

I was going to bid on this. I thought about reaching out to the seller too, but got lazy. You didn’t and scored. Lesson learned. Thank you professor.

Leather jacket weather today. Vintage Tauber's cross zip this evening:

This is a special one! It lays perfectly when worn open.

Thanks! Don‘t you think it’s too short? It’s shorter than Most of my jackets. Probably it looks good and I‘m just not used to it. This was the main reason why I sold the Vanek.
