Ask Lemmy

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!

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 have a denim vest with band patches on it, battle jacket type thing if that counts.

I'm Canadian so it's the law.

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

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.

Nope.

Not Canadian

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

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

No. Stopped wearing those in the early 90s.

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

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.

No. Never owned one. Not really my style.

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.

I inadvertently left mine hanging in a hotel room in Atlanta time time in the late '90's and never looked back.

No. I'm more of a hoodie person.

I owned a black denim jacket in the 80s.

Yep. Got a Sherpa denim jacket last year for winter and it was a great decision. Kept me toasty warm and was a good alternative to a heavy winter coat.

No, but now I want one.

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

Nope. I have texture issues with denim.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

Ugh, I wish I still had the one I had in college 20 years ago. It was lined with fake fur kind of fabric and it was so warm, and I'm always cold, so I wore it constantly. Sadly, I gained a few pounds and it didn't fit.

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

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.

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