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

[newagegeezer]

It looks like a Cal, identical to mine, great jackets. Does yours have fur at the cuffs?

no fur at the cuffs on mine, a couple of other photos, buttons (would they have been plastic or metal ?) missing from teh cuffs...Does yours have the corduroy over collar ? perhaps been added later to perhaps cover wear on the collar, but rest of the jacket is is such good condition I've no idea why the collar would wear, also no idea whether the white leather insert over top of lining was original , does yours have that ? And what is the Cal make ?
Thanks for any more info
Cheers

It looks like the corduroy was stitched over the collar to help hold it together as you said, mine doesn't have it. The collar might have worn from sweat. Those cuffs are a style I've seen on other Cals. Cal is an American maker, they made a lot of cop jackets (Officer Poncherello!) from the sixties onwards. https://www.instagram.com/cal_leather/

You might want to post on www.thefedoralounge.com , the people there would definitely tell you what it is.

It was a cool day out today, so after work, @Nnatalie and I went for a walk and got some chai. I’m wearing Rip Depascal’s Cable 27753, and she’s wearing a Five Star ladies Cossack jacket.

Look at the happy smiling faces on those two.....what a great couple... aren’t they?

 

[mulceber]

I promise you, we’re smiling under our masks.

Still the schott anj3 for Chilly +8 as I go out for a ride and a coffee
I love the jacket for the cooler weather, thick leather and it’s design
Allows for layering today a light freezer jacket and heated vest.

Nice jacket .. and that heated vest really is a great piece of kit if you ride a bike in cold weather, isn’t it?

Windy day at the Costa del Sol...and far too much light for open eyes (Sorry @Smithy )

You guys look like you’re having a great time . That mask can’t begin to hide the happiness I can see in you daughters eyes and the smile I know she has on her face

Oh no, that's my smooth and easy look. I'm more the corporate pilot type.

Unfortunately I can't wear my A2 right no here in my area of California as it was 87° F today. Maybe sometime in the middle of November.
