Haha don’t know how old you are but I’m 40 and don’t see an issue there but totally get what you mean. It can easily go the „midlife crisis“ direction.

@Memphisakers @Dmart we all getting old together!!! What I dig about this gear we all love so much is it’s basically all the same stuff I’ve always worn just waaaayyyy nicer haha. And waaaayyy less baggy. Remember the old skater days of pants big enough to fit two dirt bag skaters in!!?

[Memphisakers]

Oh you mean this 

[Memphisakers]

@Mizmazzle  I found that the other day on Reddit… nearly fell out of my chair laughing. That is exactly why I never let anyone take pictures of me.

[Mizmazzle]

Haha! @Memphisakers this is the absolute SHIT!!! Iron Heart should make the JNCO cut!!! I bet it would be huge!!! Literally!!!

Josh, is that you in this photo??

[Memphisakers]

@Mizmazzle
Na but I’m pretty sure my style was even worse

[Memphisakers]

Hahahahaha could you imaging how much those would weigh?

[Mizmazzle]

JNCOs in XHS!! Bet the roping would be worth looking like a clown for!!

[Memphisakers]

You are killin me bro… killing me

15 pound pants…so stiff they don’t move…washing them like 10 times is a requirement . Lori bought the brown blind jeans reissues a couple of years back and I’m pretty jealous. Not gonna lie, I feel like some brown 21oz in a loose cut would be DOPE!!!

@Mizmazzle I realize this is a very old thread … but I thought I’d keep the topic alive.

How do you find the jacket for mobility? Can you button it up and still raise your arms to parallel (ish)?

I owned a Himel Imperial but sadly it had to go as it was too snug (my fault not David’s). Now I’m thinking a different style and the Canuck in the dark Shinki brown is calling .

@goosehd same question to you … how do you find this pattern for mobility?

Looks great on you btw!

[Mizmazzle]

@Brandrea hey brother man! Mine over a tee is best for mobility. I can wear thicker layers but it definitely restricts the movement. I think it’s more the size than the cut of the jacket though. With leather, it’s almost like you need at least two. One for a tee only and one for layering. My split steer is roomier and easy to wear over layers. My Himel and Bareback feel easiest over a light shirt like a tee or under 10oz shirt.

@Mizmazzle Thanks so much for that, and what you say makes complete sense.

Your jacket looks absolutely terrific on you, nailed the fit!
