    Anyone replace their Aero Cafe Racer Zipper with a #10 zip?

    Yes! They were. Excellent nickle finish on them. Personally, they look better than the 40s crowns. They were produced till mid 70s. Vansons used them in some of their heavier jackets.

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    I have several. One in the Highway patrol style and several others in the CR types. About 30 years ago, I took several jackets to Cal leathers for authentication. I was told that the Cal prototype I got from my friend Dan Jauregui was the only one two ever made and both were made in HH. The...

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    Anything in the 7th pound range (with out belt and mouton) is an excellent Cal. The straight zips tent to weight a little less in my experience then the X zip ones. There were two gents from the forum that are selling excellent jackets here, did you see them? I had bad experiences with some...

    What’s a fair price for a good Cal jacket?

    After reviewing the newer pit to pit images, the jacket is in the 42-44 size range. The jacket looks like a 70-80's model to me. The price is a little in the expensive side. Is it ok to wait for such a jacket to show up in the Uk? Have you reached in to this forum to see if anyone is selling...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I totally understand why you see it this way. However, this jacket is significant for many collectors. Back in the late 50s, there were few companies (Trojan) who were adding white as a safety feature. Additionally, Vinyl had its advantages over leather and was considered a new product for...

    Yes, it will go on the shaft. The higher the best, I will take some images on my RedWing Boots 2268. I also have them in my two pairs of redwing motorcycle boots and other engineering boots. While using regular Levis jeans 501 (boot cut) nothing gets on the way. I have opted for the #5...

    $95 for the sleeves and button repair? That is good price. Did your repair person also adjust the length?

    For Sale Vanson C2 Size 44

    Very nice jacket. Can you please share if the jacket is comp weight leather?

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I have the Vanson. However, the Hein Gericke is a underrated jacket. For the price, it is hard to beat them both. If in a cold day, you can heavily layer on those two.

    Vintage HD Traveler jacket - anyone worn one?

    I actually have one. They were produced mainly towards the end of the big square label production. You probably know that this jacket also has elastics at the bottom towards the back at sides of the hem. Mine was a little worked out but very functional. Elastic had its places in vintage...
