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

That Sefton is really a great jacket. It’s not talked about much these days but it was the GW of its day in my opinion. Of course it was only made for a limited time and other manufactures over took and surpassed it’s design an authenticity features .
I also think the original patterned 5 Stars are underrated as well . I just purchased one a few weeks ago and I’m wearing it whenever I get the chance. Once it breaks in and I get some wear time on it I’m going to do a quick review . So far I’m happy with it .
Cheers

I agree the 5 stars jackets are very well made jackets and they have had a lot of improvement for authenticity and in the leather choice... SEFTON will be only avaliable second hand but worth the price. For a 30 year old jackets they are still well made jackets... Their russet steerhide jacket is buildt like tanks.

Thanks. Wife and dog are away visiting for a couple days and I’m sick of cutting grass. Going to go play a bit.

Nice to see Sefton A-2’s getting a bit more well deserved praise around here. Stephen Silburn (who is Sefton) no longer produces A-2’s but still works with leather producing stitch perfect B and C type flying helmets and other reproductions as well as producing items in other materials for collectors, museums, film and tv industries. He will also restore certain items too.

Historical artifact meets modern work of art. Wearing this one in perfectly Flash, keep it going!

Very kind CK. I do feel like a historical artefact at times. Maybe less art and a few more inconvenient facts

Warm here so no jackets which is a luxury in these parts.

Been mooching around in a T-shirt, jeans and an old pair of cowboy boots for most of the day. Ended up kicking the old barbie into life and grilling some porkchops for the hungry kids and their mates.

Can't say I missed a jacket today at all.

How warm has it been?
Just asking because it hit 97F / 36.1C here today ….. and it’s not even June yet!!!….
Just wondering if it’s time to move to Norway so I can wear jackets.

23 Celsius where we live today Burt going to be 24 to 26 tomorrow. Kind of feels warmer as it's nearly 24 hour sun up so the sun's still pretty high up in the sky and warm even now at 10pm.

You're always welcome here buddy. There's always a bed with clean sheets and a hot meal if you ever turned up on the doorstep.

Ouch. Even after enduring a long winter that’s too hot for me. Probably very humid as well I’m guessing. Thursday and Friday here were my idea of perfect weather. Crystal clear blue skies and mid 60’s. Back to rain today again.

Even at that I’d take it over the weather we’ve had here for the last couple of weeks .

Yeah that sounds like a bit much. Especially when it’s only may. I find the extremes at both ends of the mercury similar, in that I generally park my ass inside and don’t get much done
