What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[Grant]

Another chilly day and another repro Irvin. Seeing as there is yet more ELC knocking currently going on here I threw caution aside, thought sod it and wore an earlier ELC.
Let the criticism begin because “frankly my dear I don’t give a damn” ….especially as I have now gone down with some bug or other that has already gone around the family over the past two or three weeks. What was that about immune systems? Grrrr


Irvin looks awesome. Don't let the haters get you down. Feel better Steve!

Just got some cooler weather (40' s and 50's here in the Fort Worth Tex area. Brought out my NZ Real McCoys Monarch and Dubow A-2's. Most favorite of the herd.

 

[CombatWombat]

Still too hot and humid around my neck of the woods......probably won't be wearing anything but the lightest cotton jackets till well into hhe new year

Returned home to winter. At 19 F / -8 C, it’s time to break out the winter kit. GW B-6. Not pictured: ELC officer pinks.

 

[Dany McDonald]

Man that B-6 is getting better with usage or what... maybe I am just a fan... Kwik zip is always nice to see and I love the color of the sheepskin, soft off white.

Same old Eastman Irvin, but hey I like snapping selfies.

Also- no red rot!

Not a sign of red rot on this jacket. Nor on my 1951 P&S 55J14. Solid, supple goatskin in both cases. Seeing how well goatskin seems to age and stand the test of time prompted me to order a GW A-2 in goatskin (Doniger). I'll report back when that one is 70 years old ; )

19 degrees F ??
I’d be giving that new N-3B a check ride

 

[mulceber]

Well, it’s supposed to warm up today to *almost* freezing, so the N-3B might have been too much.

Really? Not supposed to get out of the 20s here (sorry @B-Man2 ), but mid 40s by Weds. But yeah, N-3B is still in the upstairs closet.

Peacoat has been the go-to.

28 is the forecast, so almost freezing, but still in the '20s.

I’ve been in Florida for so long that I’d be freezing my gonads off at those temps.
I guess there’s something that’s true about your blood thinning out when you’ve been in warm weather for a few years .
When I lived up north I was running around in a sweatshirt at 32 degrees.

With me it's a seasonal thing -- I get cold fast in the winter until I acclimate, but 40 feels like sweatshirt weather come March.

Only 6 months to go

New acquisition, 1958 Foster 7823 (2312) G-1
This is a catch-&-release unfortunately, sleeves are bit short for my liking. Going on the sale page soon.

Thanks to Steve

The wife and I went to a festival of lights last night and the weather was just right for my Eastman D1.

Killer looking Eastman D-1!

 

[Grant]

Thanks to Steve for the sweet Eastman AN-J-4.

Thats a lot of a collar, nice! AN-J-4 are so stylish, almost unmilitary... You look great in it Grant.
