gorgeous jacket, I recently picked up a mobster which is pretty similar. The leather on these is top of the line veg tanned pigment finished Shinki horsehide.
Thickness? Not even close, the cal is one heavy gal. But durability is another question. In terms of construction I may have to give it to the mobster because like many vintage pieces, the cal has a few loose stitches and the fabric at the bottom of the zip is starting to fray, wereas the rmc is...
This is a quick turn around on https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/fs-cal-leather-1960s-horsehide-40l.105569/#post-3067126
She's a real looker, but I am already on to the next one.
Asking 350 shipped, which is exactly what I paid.
Pics came from prior post, happy to send updates...
Hey guys,
Just got this gorgeous straight zip chp with an original talon zipper. The zip works great but the little plastics fabric protector is long gone and the fabric is starting to fray. Anyone know of any ways to resolve this. Or should I bring it to a professional.
Thank you much
