    That Appalachian police is really cool, I've never seen a jacket like it. Feels like it mixes a bunch of different styles together (I especially like the CHP laces). Also that box, wow! I didn't realize jackets were packaged so well back then. I'll definitely shoot you a message when I find a...

    Thanks for the detailed response Terry! That is a really interesting back as you said. How does it affect the fit? I've been trying to get my hands on a wide variety of jackets to feel out the different makers. So far I haven't gotten the chance to handle a California Sportswear jacket...

    Shame :( I really like your restoration posts. Something magical about seeing a jacket restored. It reminds me of that scene in Toy Story 2 where the guy fixes Woody.

    Your Hercules was one of the jackets I thought of when I received the jacket but now that you mention it the sleeves and belt clasp look very similar to the ones on the Californian.

    Hey guys, I recently picked up this unlabelled half belt and wanted to ask for some help dating and identifying the maker. The leather is very light and pliable (typical of vintage jackets). To me it looks like a 50s Sears Hercules but the sleeves are a bit different. Let me know what you think...

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

    Maybe I'm picky but there are a lot of flaky bits around the shoulders that may be cracking leather (doesn't show up super clearly in the photos). Also I've been conditioning it with Lexol + Urad so it definitely looks better now than when I got it. I was also thinking 40s/50s due to the arm...

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

    Finally got the chance to snap some pics of the unlabelled half belt. Great quality hide but not in the best condition. How old do you guys think it is based on the style? (no zip pics because I think it's a replacement).

    Thoughts on Toyo's (Buzz R, Sugarcane, etc.) 'Bronco' horsehide?

    Wow, talk about persistence. That's a beautiful leather and it looks great on you!
