I'd wheel it #prettyinpink

 

Casual

Its been getting chilly out here and one of my jackets I'd normally wear has a slightly worn cuff. Doesn't help I've taken it to a shoot course or two while in bad weather.

I'm partial to Arcteryx and have a few, so it's what I want again. Just sucks not being able to gauge how thick/thin it is before buying it.

My current one is a shell; waterproof and windproof.

 

There's a place that specializes in selling work clothing and I've seen carhartt jackets there.

Only found really thick ones that aren't as casual as I'd like; I will say they do look and feel like a quality jacket that'll last a damn long time.

Fuck..or A and C

It's tough but definitely A.

 

They all look the exact same to me

 

Arcteryx looks like some really neat merchandise.

I wear a fairly common sport coat size that works for "off the shelf" purchases without alteration. Its been a while since I needed to buy a sport jacket.

I have a Carhartt winter coat that I've been wearing since 2008.

 

Go buy a minivan

 

So I got turned to them some years back when I'd do shoot houses and night shoots in cooler weather; it progressed to cold nights and rain even and I found Arcteryx to last a long time. The materials offer great breathability so no fear of sweating and maintaining moisture while you're in colder weather; being in a cold sweat sucks.

I'll look at Carhartt's offerings online; like I told Jake I only found trade-work specific jackets so I don't really know what I'm missing.

By the way it's been a minute, how's the LX coming along?

@Wulf

I like this one - https://www.carhartt.com/products/c...ulated/Full-Swing-Armstrong-Active-Jac-103371

Says I'm a medium...guy in the pic is wearing a medium but he's 6'2"

I'm only 5'7"

 

B and C all day.

 

I actually have one of the first ones that made like that. It has a plaid inside like a plaid shirt.

 

Is there anywhere you can try one on? Murdoch's, Big R, tractor supply, milsurp stores usually have them.

FWIW height is not everything because you can be tall and have a short torso. at 6'3" with a short torso a regular cut shirt or jacket medium fit me when I was cut. I still wear medium backpacks.

 

Thanks for asking. No real change since I put on the rear bumper. It needs to be aligned to fit better. Maybe I can get my kid to help me with it this weekend.

Right now I'm waiting for Dobinsons front shocks to arrive so I can start and finish the suspension lift. I should have some sliders arriving around the 1st of the month.

I need to finish the suspension to remove AHC to install the sliders.

How's the 4Runner coming?

 

All of this.

 

Hmm true

I'll try and swing by that one place that sells work clothes.

I've only seen the really thick jackets meant for welding and what not, but those I found online look really comfy.

 

Looking like a badass rig; I forgot some of your suspension components were on backorder and stuff.

Lift that thing 2" and it's going to look like a real beast.

Are you doing anything for a rack? Can't remember if you intended to sleep in the actual truck or not.
