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

ATF fleece tanker. An ace jacket for wear whilst working about outside.
I would love to show you the deep, rich patina that mine has acquired that beats anything that the costume department dirtied up and gave whathisname to strut and posture about in "Fury"... However changing a burst tyre on a trailer loaded with several tons of horse poop out in the middle of nowhere on a cold, windswept bit of Norfolk countryside on a January day did not foster the urge to strike a pose for a photo session ....even if said location once resounded to the roar of numerous WW2 bombers ....and the described activity added quite a bit to the "patina' on the jacket

:D

What a load of crap!

As you get older you'll find all the little helpful things your computer and you phone do to "help" you will start to drive you into madness. I'd like to start a shooting range for killing phones...o_O

What drives me nuts is all the new cars and how they beep all the damn time. You don't put your seatbelt on? BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! You open the door to hop out with the engine going? BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! You open the fucking boot/trunk...BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Honestly the nimrod who thought this up needs a damn good kick up the backside.

That's why I have a 2007 Toyota Tacoma with NO electric anything! No seatbelt beeping, no electric windows, no electric locks, no nuttin"! The only cute little modern trick it has is it will turn off your lights automatically.

Foster 55J14 again. I wasn’t pleased with this one when it arrived - it had a strong aftershave smell to it. A few weeks in the closet, and it seemed to have disappeared. :)

You can clearly see here the V-shape effect- wide shoulders/trim waist thing going on with the 55Js. This one has no label, but it’s about 99% a Foster 55J14. A bunch of cosmetic issues/replacement knits/zipper/collar?, but the shell (what counts) is strong.

A little bit of white paint too. Why is this so common in these jackets??
