    Vintage "Snake Plissken" horsehide

    Well I just received the jacket from FedEx today. I knew when buying it that it may not fit and I was kinda right. It fits well in the shoulders and sleeves, but I will never be able to zip the jacket up lol. It probably is a 38 or maybe even 36 chest. I know this post is kinda pointless w/o a...

    Vintage blue horsehide

    Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm really new to collecting vintage leather, so this was my first seeing a vintage blue horsehide. They should have made more in this color! I don't have it yet, but based off the photos, I'm thinking the wrist knits might need to be replaced at some point. If...

    Vintage blue horsehide

    Hi all, I took the plunge on this vintage 50s? blue horsehide bomber jacket. I know it is probably not everyone's cup of tea...but it being what I imagine a more rare color and horsehide to boot, I just couldn't pass it up. It has a blue vintage talon zip as well..though the pictures I have...
