I'm ashamed to admit it .... I was a member once...
 
Naw... it wasn't quite as bad as a criminal gang, a wacko religious cult, or even a political party ...

I found an almost "like new" Member's Only jacket way back in a rarely used "coat closet" ... my never used (or lightly used) "life of coats" is being boxed for the mountains...

Should I put that MO jacket in the box .... don't wanna add insult someone's injury ;)

Fess up .... who had one? Thanks mom :D!

Funny. I knew EXACTLY where this was going! And no, my personal economy didn’t allow for a MO jacket back then.

Like everyone else, I always wanted one, but never had one.
I suspect there are a ton of them on eBay. That's probably the kind of thing that I'd throw away or donate, but if you've got lots of room for hanging onto stuff go ahead and keep it. In 20, 30, 40 years, it can be someone elses problem. :D

I received this jacket when my race car in 87' was awarded best engineered at car show.
Recently sent the jacket to the current owner of my old race car now located in Italy.:)

eck. me too. my mom got me a grey one after I begged her. I was a victim of following the trends in my youth. I am glad that thought pattern, AND that jacket are in my rear view.

I don't remember it being that great of a jacket in terms of comfort that warmth.

now, I just walk around in an outfit I call: "I already have a woman" outfit. and I look gooooood.

Had a couple of them. No idea where they ended up.

OK, I would totally rock that jacket now! That jacket is full of Rad.

My teenage daughter occasionally will drag me along to LA area flea markets. Those types of jackets can be found there. I'll have to ask her to keep an eye out for one.

"i refuse to join any club that would have me as a member" pretty much sums up my thoughts on any "exclusive" clubs and members only jackets etc etc

I could always just throw it away and put a Benjamin or two more in the box ;)

My black MO jacket is much heavier. My grey one similar to that was Pacific Trail ....

I would wear that jacket too, but I would roll up the hoodie and put it back where it belongs in the collar to never be seen again. Never understood why people take those things out 'cause once you take them out they never go back in place like they were originally.
