The stretchy, elasticized hem is a deal breaker for me. Always thought that looked pretty lame on leather jackets. Shame because otherwise it looks nice.
his opinion wasn't even necessarily directed at you, but rather the piece of clothing. i don't really think you need to be so defensive in this situation. i'm sure he has every right to have an opinion on a piece of clothing when you're not even in the picture itself...i don't understand.
The reason his post pissed me off is the vaguely worded reason for not liking the look of the jacket.
What's lame about it? Why isn't it (in his opinion) acceptable?
I have no problem with statements like, "It makes the jacket fit baggy through the chest" or whatever, but to just say that it looks like lame means absolutely nothing to me, nor should it to anyone else here. We're not talking about something as ironclad as color matching or material construction. There's not even a picture of anyone wearing the jacket. Explain why it looks bad as photographed, hanging on a hanger in my office.
If you're going to educate me, educate me; but don't play to the lowest common denominator and bash something just because you wouldn't personally wear it.
Anyway, I'm off to go for a ride. Maybe I'll post a fit pic, maybe I won't.
