    I do. Love a good jean jacket, it’s like pants for your arms. Wear it with jeans and you’ve got yourself a Canadian tuxedo!

      I still have mine from the 90s. I haven’t worn it in more than 20 years, and it’s far too small for me (I’m regular sized, but in high school I was painfully thin). It’s got a bunch of punk band patches, both famous and local, most of which no longer exist.

      It hangs out with my guitars.

    Certainly. A men’s fashion staple, if you ask me. I’d like a black one, too.

    Is there a male fashion advice Lemmy, actually? I loved that sub back on Reddit.

    I still own the best jacket ever made, the Lee Stormrider.

    Got it in like 1986-1990 ish, not totally sure.

    It’s pretty discoloured so I only wear it for dirty work, but it’s still completely structurally sound except for the standard slice in the wool liner to make a pocket and path down the sleeve to hide your cigarettes in.

      You can re-dye them! (Not sure how well that works with any wool parts.)

    I did at one point, not now.

    They’re durable, but I don’t really put a lot of wear on my jackets.

    I enjoyed it when I had it. Not very well suited for rain, though.

    I’m wearing one right now as I sit in the local library. They’re easy to get I guess, not sure how much thought I put into it aside from whether they’d pair with my skirts.
