    https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/vintage-outerwear-threads-of-the-past.102621/page-6#post-2761777 I posted about that jacket awhile back. I don't really see the indicators of it being from the 40s/50s, but I was curious what the brand was. It's a bit odd to see the exact same style of...

    Did you get a different measurement from the seller? The listing description said 22", but if it was a 20.5, I would have gotten it. If someone here bought it on principle and it's actually a smaller size, I'd be happy to buy it for practicality and principle!

    Nice looking steerhide cross zip, not sure of the brand. Size 38. Nynco and Robin Samson zippers? Not sure what those date to.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    It's a good rule of thumb, but not always the case. I have seen a number of jackets on ebay.de that specify men on the jacket's label, while the zipper zips up to the left shoulder. I have also seen women's jackets that zip up to the right shoulder. For instance, this Vanson: I will say, I...

    Yeah, it's a Fidelity. I think the seller also dated the zippers wrong, the ones on that jacket are 1940s to 1970s, not the 1940s only variant.

    Per this article in 2015, (possibly sponsored? I don't know the site), their USAAF jackets started at €2600 and their shearling RAF jackets started at €3100. Now five years later, their USAAF jackets begin at €3500, and their shearling RAF jacket starts at €5000. Prices aside, many of the...

    Brown Cal Leather LAPD, size 36

    Hi everyone, I purchased this from Dannyk late last year, and it just hasn't worked out. It's a nice jacket, but a bit too small. After a couple months of just sitting in my closet without being worn besides to try something on, I think it's best if I offer it to someone else. I bought it for...

    This was basically me when I started using facebook marketplace. Pristine Cal's for $80 and others for $50. Then my happiness was shattered by the fact that many sellers on facebook marketplace refuse to ship their items.

    There are probably a bunch of other good deals in that site. It's a whole new environment of mostly-casual sellers! Great find.

    This is a recent pickup that might end up on the bay / classifieds soon. Bit too large for me. Anyone have ideas on who the maker could be? Many of the features look like Cal (chest stitching, add-on collar placement, shearling cuffs), but the belt loops aren't flipped, which I've always thought...

    Leather Police Jackets

    Here's a recent pickup that's on the way now. Anyone familiar with what this brand might be? Seller purchased it from a Oakland police shop when he was on the force. Will try to get better pictures from it arrives.

    I'm not sure if this is Miklos Sas or another maker, but this is a good looking NYPD jacket for $115 OBO. Really cheap considering it's most likely horsehide. I'd snap it up right now but with an 18" chest and 22" sleeves, it's just too small. Also a size small Brooks CR for under $100...

    Does the Schott 641 Horsehide say something like 641 HH on the pocket tag, or does it just say 641 like the standard jackets do?
