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

[mulceber]

But I don't care, I'm having fun just looking at it.

Yep, that's it - that's the VLJ bug.

Throwback Wednesday contribution...

ELC Irvin [sold this one]

 

[Pa12]

Got something from mr. postman today too. Tomorrow will be 7 months to the day

 

[mulceber]

Can't just leave us hanging! Where are the fit pics?

 

[Pa12]

Fits. Just. I have a 43 inch chest and take 44 in gw. This is a 46. So if your any bigger then me, forget Platon. This is the biggest he makes.

 

[Pa12]

Noticed the leather zip pull is missing. Can’t remember if my last one had it.

Jake? From State Farm?

Looks great! it is very trim pattern from him. He told me I needed a 48 but has stopped that size. I was sure a 46 would be more than fine, but it was a squeeze till I lost another 20lbs, which was already a plan.

 

[Pa12]

A shame bigger guys can’t get one of these. They’re a beautiful jacket

One for way back whensday, my first A-2 an Aero 38--1711-P in oil pull, it didn't work for me, too short and although lovely the hide was too thick, my fault there.

Yep … That’s the only down side . A great jacket, but if you’re a little bigger guy, A size 46 really fits a size 44 guy nicely and there’s no more size 48s for a legitimate size 46 guy. However, if you’re a size 42 you’ll have a great A2 for a great price.

Throw back Wednesday …. Back to cooler days and cooler temperatures. Here’s a repro Willis and Geiger M-444 by … Willis and Geiger.

All of these sheepskins are giving me heat stroke!

I haven't been able to look at any of my jackets in weeks.

 

[Pa12]

Man , south west us is really getting hammered. Ridiculous temps over 50 c. We’ve had several heat alerts already but pretty normal for here in the summer. In the 30’s with humidex pushing 40. Hope they don’t start plugging in all their electric cars down there. Deadly time to have a black out

I had no idea John had made an Indy, that's awesome Nick.

I've only got a lowly Wested Raiders but I absolutely LOVE it, one of my favourite jackets, so easy and comfortable to wear, practical and it elicits more "Nice jacket" comments from complete strangers than any of my other, far more expensive jackets.

BTW I have a "Puck Futin" T-shirt which I should follow your lead and team up with the Raiders jacket ;-)

Hope you're doing well Nick after your bout of COVID.

So you know it

Beauty! Perfect fit! Congrats!!!

will fit you if you decide to get one

 

[Dany McDonald]

Pa that Dubow was made for you, nice fit, enjoy it and abuse it, cause it can take it. And I mean that, mine is aging slowly which means it will only be getting better year after year!

I think they stop taking any orders now. I would love to order a 46 in russet for sure.
