    How likely is it to find vintage clothing in larger sizes

    And speaking of vintage clothing, here are the pictures from the Levi's advertisement campaign promoting their new line of "vintage" clothing. Very dapper construction workers. The leather jacket in the first picture looks awesome.

    Five Star Leather Jackets

    I have 5*trucker in HH. It's not bad. The leather is not uniformly thick over the jacket, but that's construction/QC issue. The hide is ok.

    Yeah, I thought those two hides were the default.

    I made an attempt for a Maxwel type jacket in HH and it came to $520 including the hide overcharge, size overcharge and all the other fees. Yeah...too much

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I've got the overdye cxl in a 4+oz hh. It does look kinda plastiky at the beginning but it develops good character with time...long time. I've had it for a couple of years and it just now has started to develop a worn look. It is warm and to be honest, it is a tank of a jacket. I love it. I have...

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Yeah, that's what I'm thinking as well. I've already talked to Damon and got an initial cost. It's going to be around $1600 because of the hide, and that's why I'm shooting for next year...kinda pricy

    That Milan will be my next project from Johnson. I'm in the process of budgeting it in. So, probably next year.

    Kudu is a kind of antelope right? How does that hide compares to deer or bison.

    LW straight zips go for $1650 HH regular size. Crosszips $2450. Both way overpriced

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    The M-200 is the baseline, but Damon or Alan can accommodate any modifications in design and size. After the first fit jacket measurements can be fine tuned and adjusted on the second fit jacket for a really good fit. I had a 4oz+ Horween CXL HH jacket made by JL and it's been great to ride or...

    Leather Police Jackets

    A Johnson will run approximately $1100, depending on size and hide. It could be closer to $1300 But you can see the Taylor CHP, made in Pakistan now, with Taylor requirements https://taylorsleatherwear.com/collections/vintage-police-styles/products/los-angeles-cowhide-leather-motorcycle-jacket

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    Yeah you're right, I'll consult with Alan and Damon at JL and see what they suggest

    Johnson Leather Jacket

    I was considering a jacket from JL, cossack style with a couple modifications in Horween Milan HH, but JL only has the 3.5/4oz weight which is a bit thick for a buttoned jacket, but more importantly that hide would add a surcharge of at least $300 to the price of the jacket. Wait time the usual...
