    Factory repairs

    I brought my Langlitz in for them to add the snaps for a collar of theirs that I already had, and they suggested I get my liner around the neck fixed as it was torn in a few spots. I gotta say, I dig their approach to repairs. While the jacket was in, I ended up getting a new zipper as the...

    Show your Langlitz

    My recent Langlitz find had a shearling collar that I wanted to see if it would fit on my old yard sale Langlitz. I dropped off the collar and the jacket and around a week and half later I was able to pick it up. They informed me that my main zipper was going, so I opted to have that replaced...

    When Langlitz patched my sleeve, they also replaced the wrist zipper and gusset, gusset was toast, and threw in the patches for free. They will need to pop the lining stitches to repair the patch.

    I just had some repairs done at Langlitz. The main zipper should be around $100 and they can repair the hole, though it might looks something like this repair.

    A2 fit

    I feel like this is a touch too big, but maybe I’m use to seeing awesome short A2 jackets that fit like a tight sweater.

    Langlitz Columbia and Cascade review.

    I know this is an old thread, but the XL stands for 1" longer in the sleeve(X) and 1" longer in the body(L). At least that is what Scott at Langlitz told me when I asked about my 44XXL labeled jacket.

    White label vanson.

    I found this older jacket on CL in Spokane earlier this year and had a family member pick it up and mail it to me. Fit is nice, though it feels about 1/3 the weight of my 10 year old Vanson. Just thought I’d share it before it finds a new home.

    ID help please

    I think this is a Lesco, though I’m not sure. I bought this 10/15 years ago for $35 at a thrift store. At one point it fit nicely, but that was 30lbs ago. I love the color and the feel of the leather on this jacket. Any ideas?

    Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?

    the only pics I could find on my computer. My 1983 Volvo 245 Turbo in the background with my 2003 C240 wagon in front. My original and in need of some love 1948 Chevy 5 window is outside of the frame to the left. Here is my 1993 BMW K75rt and while I don't have a pic, I also have a 1972...

    Soft leather jackets in the $500 to $1,000 price range?

    If you live in Portland oregon, I saw a beautiful soft light brown/sand jacket with a stellar collar at a vintage shop for $24 yesterday.

    Here is one I picked up last week. Hefty goat. The repairs, new main zipper and wrist zipper/gussets, will cost just around double what I paid, luckily I didn’t pay much.

    Avirex A-2 goatskin dating help

    from my little bit of research, these are not “serious” jackets though the earlier ones are favored higher than the mall variety. I found this today at a vintage mall, it was priced right, fits nice, made in USA and of goatskin. It has an EMAR labeled zipper and scovill snaps if that helps...

    Pawnshop Langlitz find

    I have a sneaking suspicion that I know this jacket. I think I bought it at a pawnshop around 6 years ago, though it did not have the collar at that point. If I recall, I paid $90 for it and sold it for $600. The reason I believe this is the same jacket as I had Langlitz make a small...

    Pawnshop Langlitz find

    I will say this goat feels much more stout than my other goat. It feels nearly twice as thick. The new jacket also has leather lined pockets, which is nice but odd to me. All of the Langlitz I’ve had over the years have always had cloth lined pockets.
