My cursor hovers over the "bid" button.... Too bad it's so small. In fact, I don't think it's even a 36, judging by the pic where it's measured pit-2-pit. Size 34? Or maybe it's a 36 and the tape measure is a little off the jacket.
I love the way these Cals are made, so 70s! And this one in...
Awesome jacket, Marc!!
The pity is that the one for sale has a broken Conmar -insert pin missed-. Except for this, it's a completely wearable jacket. I'm absolutely sure that whoever buys it will wear proudly.
Well, after much thought, I've decided not to buy that one. This is a late 80s Al's Leather, YKK plastic zippers. The seller is close to know what s/he sells, as in the description talks about Cal and Johnson Leathers. Maybe someone will enjoy it more than I would. Size 38. BIN $169. eBay
I live in Barcelona, walking the streets from 1 to 7 pm it's like when you open the oven to take the pizza out. It's horrible, the little air that blows is warm, like a giant breath. The worst thing is humidity: yesterday noon went up to 70% and 30ºC. You come out of the shower and you're...
Hey, @mattdarat nice jacket! I had that listing watched. You got a really nice jacket for a good deal. Judging by the size of the former label, this was from "A Taste of Leather" in San Francisco, which fits what the seller said to you. Here a post by @Chevalier showing an exact jacket like yours.
Well, I did a little search about Lesco, especially 'cause many times I find their jackets in almost every vintage store I visit. But nothing better than rescuing the post of @Gamma68 talking about their history.
On the way this Lesco I bought yesterday. Serval zippers. One half unstitched belt loop, easily fixable. Let's see what kind of leather is that, but my guess it's steerhide.
One extra inner pocket, interesting. This hide looks awesome! If this jacket was 20-21" p2p, I'd consider taking it.
And about the fraying tape on this Serval zip, it's very easy to fix.
GLWS!

It's a very masculine and cool leather jacket that Johnny Depp would wear, so if you're interested, we're waiting for you. :cool:
I have a Cal with #10 Talon zipper and Serval on the cuffs, another with Serval as main zip and Talon of cuffs, and other with all Talon (cuffs and pockets) but the big one was replaced by YKK :')
So, yes, yours is original. You can determine the period of making by the hardware, so I guess this...
