Monarch M-422

[bazelot]

I know I shouldn't have but yesterday I wore my mint M-422 (not the M-422A) Monarch for the first time ever and it felt great. I should be ashamed of myself for wearing it but I am not..... I love the russet leather and it also smells fantastic!!!

a monarch m-422? way to go. man, they were made to be worn. nothing lasts forever, including old jacs. wear it, and wear it some more.

I will be wearing it very sparingly. THe russet goatskin is just fantastic, I have never seen the same shade of goatskin in the M-422A.

Now I remember. That's a beauty. I think there's just enough wear on it to not feel guilty about giving it the occasional outing. I think it does vintage jackets good to have some movement and breathe some fresh air now and again.

I will let it breathe then and take it out for a walk
