Is it on black? Do you have any close up pictures? Hard to come by in the gallery, as most pictures are iphone + mirror.


I'm just thinking that it may look too 'bikery' with bright silver zips. Also I want it to look worn in as quickly as possible and the bright zips may give it away.

WTH. Didn't even know silver was an option.

I thought the order page just listed gold and gunmetal. Yes some pics of any/all three would be appreciated.

 

max_r - it sounds like maybe we are in the same boat. I want a jacket to look worn as soon as possible. Not really into the bright shiny black pampered leather jackets. I want something with wear on it and creases, and colors that range from black to gray.

Either start wearing it when you go to sleep, take a shower, rolling around on the ground or buy a used one.

you will find that as you wear your jacket it will magically transform into a worn down jacket, proportional to the amount of time during which it is worn

Yeah, but now there's gold!

 

black 4 zip with gold zips would be pretty awesome.

I don't know about Jfetter but i'm not really interested in a pre-distressed jacket, I just want my jacket to develop creases and look worn in, and I think non-bright zips might be best for that (though who knows!).

Take Willy's message there and splash it across the first page. Because if you haven't been following TOJ and JC for even the briefest time you're going to be confused as hell.

"This is the official TOJ / John Coppidge thread. It's long as hell, so grab a sixpack and start reading. Protip: use the search function or check out the gallery, the JC tumblr, and the Facebook. Seriously. Everything you need to know is on those sites."

I can easily do that. Just send me the text and embedded pics, and I can slap the thing up.

Ughh it's been a few days now and I still can't decide on varsity colour.

Started off with black/yellow which I can rock, but I know I'll change my mind a year from now.

Then I really love the Navy/Black and now I'm really leaning towards Navy/Grey Goat....

I have a TOj1 in all black on the way as well.

What did you guys end up ordering so far?

Are those boots grey suede, Synth? Can I get the deets on those?
