Leather or Driving Jacket to Compliment GT86 - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Those Toyota jackets aren't too bad... But not my style.

I'll wait for the black leather w/ red stitching and Alcantara inserts :-)

I'd like a satin jacket (or whatever they're actually called if they have a different name) to wear for cruises.

I usually go shirtless to meets/cruises.

Less weight.

Just get a scorpion jacket and act like you're autistic. You'll be a big hit at the car meets.

Top gun jacket or gtfo

I had a very warm, cozy Italian sweater that I always wore when I drove my Fiat. It had a full length zip, a mock turtleneck and was a *beautiful* mustard yellow color. It was just SO comfy. I wanted to believe that it was wool, but probably wasn't. It was very soft, and nothing that I buy in Italy has tags on it.

My wife made me stop wearing it. She says the color is Godawful.

It's all about being comfortable.

And if you think you look badass, then that's all that matters. :-)

Nobody buy this one, I've got dibs:

e: and if you're a small person, here is a perfect one if you like "ironic" stuff.

e2: unrelated but the picture on this ad cracks me up.

This was probably one of the best threads I have read on this forum. Seeing everyone's suggestions had be laughing so hard.

I've had this jacket for 4 years, always wear it driving.

Never owned a BMW, but strangers/gear-heads always ask "So which ///M do you drive?"

I just give them the above look.

Very snug/comfortable and warm, while resisting wind.
