been to the small lake about an hour from my current house today the last time before I finally get back home to Germany in about 5 weeks

even here in Mexico autumn arrived and it is getting colder so the B10 was a good choice

"MONTEJO" beer random ballcap from the next gas-station (less than 5 bucks)

BRONSON B10 in size XXL / 44

Pike Brothers Roamer pants

Redwing "Spirit Lake Boot" made for INDIAN size 12 (I usually wear RedWings in 11.5 but that particular model is available in even sizes only)

TIES - yes I know you`d recognize that "pinkie" thing in my right hand in an instant - that`s the bat to throw my 3 dogs their tennis-balls :)

Thomas,

I was about to say something clever about bats to "throw your balls" with, but....nah....

Great overall outfit!
How do you like the PIKE denims? I never had any, but a lot of other Pike's stuff...was wondering if they might be worth a try?!

Nice fit Brice!

Never met an international person like you before although I also lived and worked abroad since meanwhile 12 years I never called a location „my home“ except Beijing where I lived for 7 years.

All other „stations“ have simply been temporary spots ...

Saludos from Mex (still 6 weeks to go before I finish my life / work here)

Aeroleather, horshide in size 44... A tank, unpatched at this time (2015). It now bears a Wright Field leather patch. These jackets should probably be aquired in cape for comfort and drape. But I will wear this one until the leather gives in.

Nice very nice...... once that breaks in and gets some drape to it, you’ll be wearing that every where you.

Just brilliant, Brice!
I was in Seoul a year ago, it is a pity I was not yet familiar with you and did not write here - if we coincided in time, we could discuss jackets with cup of soju :)

Did the obligatory walk with the dogs in the morning and then had to pay a short visit to our old flat (rather dirty there as it is being refurbished currently) so I went for my el cheapo B-10 in 9th AF Nightfighter guise...nowhere near as well made as my Eastmans but a nice jacket anyway...

Thank you :) I bought it at Seal military two years ago together with a A2 repro. Both jackets have a very nice fit (at least I feel well in both :) ) and look not too bad compared to repros that cost much much more...

Tried to go as original as possible today, Cable Raincoat, NOS sweater, watch with newly purchased NOS band (on wrong hand as I never leave my speedmaster behind), in addition to my ATF boots and USN gloves (mismatch, but prefer those for jackets with knits). Elevator picture of course + a few from the train-ride to work (train was nearly empty at 6:30 :))...
