    Assistance please - Californian California Sportswear horsehide leather jacket half belt 30s 40s?

    Love Californians. T hit it right on the nail. Those pulls were mainly used in the late 30's to early 40's. The quality and most of the time the zipper's serial number reveal the zipper's history. Sometimes the serial number is not reliable but the type of metal is a good indication of when it...

    I think the Vanson take on that style is a better jacket.

    Asking for advice - I am thinking of getting a Buco J-24.

    Are you thinking of getting a RMC? I am not a big fan of their J24 type. I believe the Lost Worlds J23 is a much better jacket for the money. Several days ago, a person was selling an original with an original belt and mouton in excellent condition for 1.3k US. That is a killer deal for...

    Replacement zipper for RMC Buco J-100

    Eagle, try e-bay in the UK. #5 Talons were often used in originals in their 50s production. I have seen a few Conmars also. If you want to keep it original #5 talons work great and are excellent performers. However, if you want a solid zipper, Conmar was the king of the #10 during the...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    I have seen those. I purchased one for my daughter. Not at the current HD Road King level, but the jackets produced were good American-made reproductions. The line was produced some 12 years ago? Truly I do not remember the exact year but the quality was good. I would describe it as very...

    The jacket looks good on you. I do not like longer sleeve look for my jackets. Some riders like the longer sleeves.

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    This is one of the images I was referring to. However, I need to locate the image with the king and queen's name attached. The late 40's version had square pockets on both sides, wool plaid lining in four colors, chain spots, and reinforced belt support. Belts were available for an...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    I love this designed. When it came out it reminded me of an original jacket that was displayed at my favorite Melrose store in the 80's. I have seen the original advertisement in the flesh and dated 1937. However, I have seen some designs similar dated 1932? At any rate, I always wondered...

    HARLEY x Real McCoy x Jason Momoa Horse hide D pocket 1940s

    Love the jackets. The cycle kings are beautiful designs. I specially like the cycle kings with the wool plate lining. The cycle champs are also very nice. The brown cycle champ is one have ever see from that time period.

    That line was excellent. My friend has the NZ long coat. I compared it with my original and it is the best reproduction I have ever seen.
