      Man are those sweet choices. Based on above I would go with the boondockers. You could wear them year round and on damn near any occasion. My 2 cents.

        We sure did. Thank you for the MF veg tan jacket pic. Beautiful.

        I'd say that this is a tough call, but you really can't go wrong. If it were me, I would go boots; but you'd be one bad motherfucker if you could rock a Bronco Champ at UCLA.

          I agree with summ3rhays; the boondockers would be the most versatile of the boot options.  Easy to dress up or down, while the engineers are a solidly casual choice.

            tbh. ben, i'd go with a jacket first…you can always buy boots in the end.
            as you can see on your pic where you're wearing the MF jacket, is sure looks hella cool with those converse.
            so for me, a leather jacket is way more versatile (no matter if paired up with some shirts or flannels, a pair of blue jeans or some nice footwear such as sneakers)...you can always buy boots.

            so for me, it's the leather jacket over everything....and i think i'd get the bronco or the veg tan jacket 😉

              If i were in your shoes, I would probably go with the one that I will wear more often. If you're comfortable with the shoes that you're wearing nowadays, then go for the Jacket. I would agree with Rafa that bronco sure looks GOOD on you..

              Whatever decision you made, in the end you can't go wrong with either one. Good Luck!!

                For me a good pair of boots is a wardrobe essential whereas a leather jacket is only essential for some.

                          I'd likely go the boondockers for the year round wear+game changer. Man great question 🙂

                              boondockers are boring
                              get the engineers or the himel jacket, (the bronco with stars does nothing for me sorry)

                              don't you know there ain't no devil? only god when he's drunk!

                                I'm with Friday–the one that will get the most wear is the one that you should choose. Of course, you may not know how much you really want to wear a thing until you have it, but such is life.  Out of the options, for me, boondockers and/or veg tan all the way. The bronco does look like a good fit, but for me a leather should be a garment that goes with anything, and colors, stars and shit just don't.

                                  I love my Lofgrens and wear boots, even heavy boots like engineers, year-round.

                                  I completely fell in love with the brown Flat Head cafe racer size 40 at SELA and loved its fit, but I couldn't justify another leather jacket at the price. But what a lovely beast it is. One nice thing about it versus some other horsehide rider jackets was how supple the leather already is–no need for an uncomfortable break-in period (not that I really mind such).

                                  Think it, be it.

                                    thanks for all the input guys… after thinking about it more I have a feeling itll either be the flat head jackets or the engineers, and I feel like I really cant go wrong with either one.

                                    mclain, you tried on the brown cafe racer in the pic I showed (with 4 pockets)?  didn't know they had it, will definitely have to take a gander next time!

                                      I am trying hard to convince myself that I did not get my 3sixteen+ 21BSP jeans hemmed too short. Does anyone else think that they're too short?

                                        you can still cuff them so they can't be too short.
                                        If you desperate to cuff your jeans, I still don't think they are too short. And after all, you have to judge when you actually wear footwear as it can change the look a lot

                                          Put on some shoes. Look in the mirror again. Give yourself a big thumbs up.

                                            I guess you're right. I think it's because my other jeans are longer so I keep thinking that these are short. Thanks man.
