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

[Thomas Koehle]

Not leather but this is a short Cathcart 'Brooklands' jacket that I got NOS from ebay. It fits my general aesthetic, being short in the body, matching my high-rise trousers.

Very sharp look!

Awesome

Couple of days back - well not military and certainly not vintage but still leather …

Got it taylor made in suede when I was still working/living in Mexico in “The leather City” Leon

They called the cut a “Riding jacket” thus the rather short shape …

Barbour Beaufort for the usual outside chores because it's piddling down here in Norfolk. Because it's piddling down, and I was busy, I had zero urge to stop and take a photo of the jacket and my ugly mug - both of which you will have seen before if you have been around here for a bit.

Today ELC A-2 Pearl Harbor walnut color, with a 31 st Bomb Squadron patch (wich was at Hickam Field december 7, 1941).
The patch is hand-painted by a spanish seller on Vinted, good job, good price and no taxes

We need some more fit photos of your beautiful jackets from your good self B-Man, as the weather cools down in your neck of the woods over the coming months.

Tell me PA, is that Mustang as much fun to drive as it looks?

Ahh, it's slow man, thanks for asking. Really, really, really slow but I just persevere. Next couple years of my life just slow physio.

It's literally a case of learning to walk and be a functioning human. I keep the faith always.

Keep it up. Lots to look forward to. Recovery, jackets etc. always have something to look forward to. Makes us humans happy.

Younger fellas would probably be disappointed driving these old cars. No abs or any of the modern advancements of modern cars. 1968 technology. You slam on the brakes and you’re probably going to do a 360. Just have to be a little more aware of things and not as lazy. But I’m 64 so it suits me right down to the ground

Like with your GW, this is, in my opinion, what an A-2 ought to look and fit like. Perfection. Well done, Pete.
