So today I was finally able to wear this jacket to work as it's been pretty stinking hot ever since I bought it.  This thing rocks!  I felt like I was wrestling an alligator all day because it's such a tough jacket, but in a good way, like when you're breaking in a pair of new thick jeans!

It's not very cold where I live (Southern California) so this jacket is perfect for me as it's not too thick.  On the way home, I had the windows down on the freeway and had to laugh at the fact that I couldn't feel a lick of wind, like the jacket was like "LOL, wind, whatever."  It's kinda funny to look at the ruffles on the sleeves and not see them move at all

And of course, once I got home, I had made it stand on its own   I was especially impressed when I realized that I had left my phone in its pocket and it still stood no problem.

As I've been drinking tonight, I reserve the right to regret anything I wrote or the way it was written in the morning.  That is all.

Ha, sorry, I did post pics a few pages back but this is the first time I got to wear it since then.  I have some unwritten mental policy on not posting more pics than the number of times I've worn the clothes

Now that is yet another mental policy (in France we call this disorder, but hey…). I think we should definitely start a topic in the general topic section listing our mental "policies", we IH'ers might not be too numerous, but I have a suspicion we are long on mental "policies"...

true, true.

more images & less lip.

You're the one with the sb rider…

[madmonday]

no, no, one of my mental things, more images & less lip. i also find it hard to put something on unless i'm weraing it out.  i can't just put something on to take a picture.  when i actually wear this out i'll make sure i snap a flick

[Paul9221]

I was really hoping that it'd get cool from here on out so I could wear this thing, but California weather is fickle like that.  Was below 70s for two days, now it's 85-95 all week.

[Beatle]

stop complaining..just wear

[Seul]

That's 30+ C° Beats… I know you would probably wear 4 layers of Iron Heart, but some of us aren't cyborgs... 

[Paul9221]

Lol, yep, it isn't pleasant

I spilled some drinks on the rider jacket and decided chuck it in for a wash, came out the machine with scuff marks all over the jacket!!!

I soaked it for about 1hr and a bit, then washed it in the front loader 40'c cotton wash as instructed. I dont know what went wrong, but it seems the jacket is too stiff for machine wash!

Heres the photo of the jacket, not the best quality but u definitely notice the scuff marks in person…

So pissed off right now…

[Giles]

JZ714.  That is a real bummer.  It is always best to was anything as stiff as this inside out.
