Friday Challenge May 20, 2016 : The particular jacket challenge

[CruzAzul]



I would like to see typical jacket from your country, field jacket, saharienne, maremmana, fancy back jacket, teba etc...

Interesting. So many great possibilities. I was born in South Africa and I have a kick-ass vintage field coat dating back to the Angolan Bush War. My citizenship is Canadian and I have a Roots leather bomber with some interesting trim details.

In order to integrate this jacket in something a bit more formal than a walk during the weekend, please wear a tie.

...aaaaaand I'm out. Good luck, guys.

Yes, I was not really clear this morning... The fabrics has no influence.

I don't have a formal jacket from my country so I hope this works instead:

Just waiting for your full-length sable overcoat to arrive back from the specialist cleaners', right?

Naturally I have a whole closetfull of them. For this one I'm considering going with the pirate coat.

We've all survived through a week, why not loosen our formality a bit? It's formal enough for the office without the stiffness of a blazer.

Can I participate with an old photo ?
