No. I'm more of a hoodie person.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yes I have multiple that I wear regularly it's because I think they look punk as hell

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

No. I don’t like the way pants feel on my legs. Why would I want them on my arms.

That being said I don’t know anyone that does so maybe it’s really just cuz I’m not Canadian like others have suggested.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

It's my niceish early spring/fall jacket. Unfortunately that season usually amounts to a grand total of four days per year; the rest is either too cold, too hot, or both.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Nope, I don't dislike them, but they won't fit my current style

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

No, I always feel too restricted in the shoulders and arms and it bugs me

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Hell yeah. It's my favorite piece of clothing. Got patches and pins all over it, a real battle jacket. Thing will probably outlive me, too, particularly at the rate we're going.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Nice, I love a good battle jacket

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Nope. Cotton in the wet and cold are miserable to wear. I avoid denim jeans, too.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

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.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I'm Canadian so it's the law.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I'm a bad Canadian for not wearing a Jean jacket. Just don't like the feeling of denim... Pants included. I do recall owning a Jean jacket as a child though, so maybe I'm not so bad.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

As long as you did it once you have upheld the legislation.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Just like we ride moose to hockey practice every day eh

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

I ride caribous. Through 1.875 meters of snow. While rolling blunts. To watch a game at the 'local' "pub".

It's pronounced meese, btw.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Get after it!!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

My jacket is a utility jacket made with denim, ripstop and kevlar (basically cut proof) and is green; would that count?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Visibly denim counts in my book. Pic?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

The seams are like jeans, but from a distance you couldn't really tell it's denim.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Did back in my 30s when i was in better shape. Too stodgy for it now

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

No. Denim is a miserable material.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I own 2 black ones. I bought them because I was going for a kind of 70s look at the time and remembered loving my jean jacket as a kid.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Walmart near me had a sale on black denim jackets for like 10 bucks each. I bought all they had in my size lol.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

Yes. It was part of my costume when I was cosplaying as a character from the film The Warriors.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I’ve always wanted a Sherpa lined one and every time I have tried one on I look like I’m wearing a blue refrigerator box.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No. Availability. Don't know where to get one.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I'd be more interested in a used one. The wear is part of what makes them cool.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I like Sellpy myself. Found some nice things there.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Should check something like vinted. That's where I got my Tommy Hilfiger Sherpa one for about 30 quid unworn last year.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 months ago

Nope.

Not Canadian

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I do have one. It holds my cool pins! I wear it sometimes when I wanna look edgy. It’s a little tight in the shoulders but I like it a lot.

My daily wear is usually a bomber jacket

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I do, and I wear it, as is my God-given right as a Canadian

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

I think Trudeau is questionable but I did appreciate his full dedication to the Canadian tuxedo.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 5 months ago

Sure, here, let me come over and show it to you...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

I don’t own one. Don’t recall ever seeing them for sale. In any case, it’s probably too hot to wear them here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Not since the 90s. I don't like heavy coats.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Not blue but khaki. Basically the same material as jeans.
