Ahhh....jacket weather! It's getting to be that time of year, once again. What is your jacket of choice this season?

I can't wait!!!! Still too hot down here to wear a jacket, but soon...

I will be wearing my USW Indy of course and I also have three A2s that I wear regularly (two are custom Flying Tiger and the third is blank)

Wearing my G&B today... finally cool enough. Just hope it stays cool. I love Autumn.

i will be wearing my todd's standard , high in Chicago of only 69 degrees today

for the colder weather it's got to be my us wings collectors edition-a very thick/heavy jacket.

I have 3 lined up......my G&B prototype vegetable tanned goatskin Expedition for cooler 'Fall' type weather along with my new Magnoli cowhide, and my Wings prototype horsehide Legend for the rest of the winter season.

Regards! Michaelson

My distressed Relic Hunter and maybe, once in while, this cool new Wested Hero in dark Lamb I just aquired. I may wear in under my Kelso as as it is kinda hard to take off!

I'm looking forward to donning any one of my Indy's with my Banana Republic close-enough MOTB cardigan (purchased 2011).

And just Fall in general...

I've pecarded my fingers to the bone....I'm ready! W>

A jacket would probably be warmer, but to each his own I guess.....

New Wested Skyfall jacket enroute.

Still 33 degrees here in Tokyo, but since the humidity has dropped a fair bit, I am back to wearing jackets again since yesterday...

I suspect my "daily" will be the Wolverine X-1 Vanson, or my Top Gun "Maverick" jacket..Both relatively warm though.......My Wested Hero is still my favourite Indy jacket to wear until it gets colder though, and until it gets to the low tens in temperature, I'll wear those I suspect....Then change to the Nowak for winter again, when I need more layers under the jacket...

I love this time of year...

I don't care if the humidity is 0%, 33C/91F is not jacket weather! (that's me sweating just thinking about it).

A Wested Hero in soft goat, with my trusty HH Wested LC waiting for the colder days.

I had to wear my Nawak Crystal Skull jacket this morning.

....whew! I'm overdue for a few jacket posts. I need to get some photos up here!


*usually about each fall, you could expect some new jacket offerings, or at least, some new shipments.

What is Fall? Its called Indygear season.

FINALLY FALL IS COMING!

I wish fall was here in So Cal, but with our triple-digit temps for the past couple of weeks, we're hotter than July was here! My G&B goatskin beckons from the closet, waiting to be put on...

Enjoy the nice, brisk autumn weather if you've got it!

Best wishes,
Dr. Nebraska S.

It was actually 62 on my front porch when I stepped out the door this morning. Caught me completely by surprise....NICE surprise, though.

Regards! Michaelson

We went from high 20's C to mid teens C in the space of a few days, and I went from the lambtouch Wested Hero to antique cowhide Last Crusade.

I also found that a slightly more generous cut jacket keeps you a bit warmer!

Sorry folks it's been my Wested XO over the weekend.
Got my shrunken lamb Hero on today to make up for it

How is that dark brown Hero? I have a new one to break in.

Was that a question for me? My DB Lambtouch cow is doing great.

....

Today was 13°C. Sunshine and showers with hail. It was also windy. Real mixed bag. I had the authentic brown lambskin Wested on and daymnn! if it doesn't really channel the jacket when it's getting blown about on top of the WOS mound.

When it gets into the 70's here in Florida in a couple of months I'll through on my Kelso.

Cole slaw?

My 2 year old wested raiders

I hear ya - I'm ready for this hot spell to be done and over with down here too. Hoping tommorrow evening cools off a bit as I'd like to wear my Wings cowhide to the local TOD screening.

I'm just going to rough it until my new Wested custom Raiders gets here...

53 this morning in Baltimore County. EXCELLENT!

I was in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan this past weekend. Yooper Country! It got down to 32 degrees. I was wearing my Wested Hero in shrunkin lamb and received many compliments. I love this time of year.

Started early with my Relic Hunter in HH, gonna give it a good wear this fall and winter.

Hey, I'm a Yooper! Was born in White Pine, MI - Dad worked for White Pine Copper Company for 23 years, from 1953-1976. I was born in 1968.

Been living in NC for 30 years now, but I'll always be a Yooper!

Say 'Ya Sure' to da U.P., eh?

Since fall seems to be already here (it's getting pretty wet and cold lately in Berlin), I already switched to my double-breasted 30s "flight" jacket (or motorcycle jacket, since that's what those German pilots choose due to the lack of officially issued flight jackets).

But! - I am really waiting for a long, looooong and cold winter to get the chance wearing my recently purchased Eastman B-3 .50cal.

Now that's a jacket to protect you from the elements...hopefully it will be a long and cold winter. Or you could just go to Greenland again, right Jens? Or was it Iceland? Either way...

Haha, both actually. And know what ... that sounds like a brilliant idea!

The mornings around here have been getting rather cool, so, I busted out my trusty Wested Hero in soft goat.
It was getting pretty nasty smellin', so it got a trip through the old washer/dryer before being hung up for the summer.
The washin' left it pretty stiff, but, after a spritz of Lexol it's softer than ever (looks better than ever, too).

It's nice to be back!!

My LucasArts IJ jacket didn't look to well, 25+ years without really taking care of it had its toll. But this spring I got some leather cleaner and conditioner and I used it and it definitely revitalized it. So I'm looking forward to the cooler weather so I can start wearing it again.

Ahh....the dog days summer finally give way to cooler temps in the mornings and evenings. The leaves are changing colors. Best time of year out here.

...and I did it! Didn't need a jacket yesterday, but was in the mid-50's this morning, and it felt GREAT! I LOVE JACKET WEATHER, especially with a BRAND-NEW WESTED!

I really cant wait to leave Maryland. 84 one day, 40s the next. So strange! Either way im breaking in my new Legend. Wearing a new jacket makes you miss wearing the old broken in one! But you gotta do it to break it in.

woo hoo!! 54 degrees this morning and my USW is sitting on the back of my office chair right now!! I got to wear it for the first time this year!!!

Just got back from a vacation in the Rocky Mountain states, Colorado and New Mexico! I got to wear my Willis & Geiger A2 for a week straight, and loved every minute of it!

Definitely not liking the 39 degree overnights, but there is a certain satisfaction walking out the door in the morning with a cozy leather jacket...
(Granted, it's 70 when I leave work up here right now... )

I swear we are going to make weathermen out of COW members yet!

Well, it's sunny and warm today, and chances are, it will be sunny and warm tomorrow with little to no rain in the desert southwest....back to you, 'M'

What we need is a perfect storm of a jacket...hat...boots....

You need another cup of coffee, Tex. Go back and sit down.
