    I'm in front of this one in a vintage store. I'll bet it's a Lesco, Scovill zippers even the snaps. Sleeves were shortened folding them up, so they can revert to the original length. Maybe 22" p2p. What do you think?

    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    My pleasure! :) Glad to see how great this jacket looks on you! Amazing the high quality of the leather. Congratulations! Absolutely, I stare at mines sometimes, as if they were paintings, haha.

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

    Welcome to FL! Did you pick this up in Russian Hill, San Francisco? I say 'cause a jacket like this was for sale there a while ago. Congrats, you'll feel tightly embraced by this beast as well as all its weight on you.

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Good idea! Despite I'm not familiar with superglue gel, I know the normal one tend to generate heat that may burn the fibers. Btw, Loctite has this flexible adhesive for vinyl, fabric & plastic but I'm not sure if this will stick scotch tape to fabric. Anyway, before using any product on a...

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Spending a few time of my vacation, I've looked for more ideas to combat this problem. I found this Tokyo workshop site where the staff fixed this issue, apparently. They don't explain how to do it, but based on pictures, I'd say a little piece of self-adhesive nylon clothing was used around the...

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

    Besides the zipper, one of the belt loops missed half snap. Anyway, I imagine these issues are easy to fix :) Great patina, btw.

    Amazing jacket, Mysteryo! I remember seller used "cossack collar" in the auction description. What's the difference between mandarin and cossack collar? I've made a research but nothing instructive found.

    Thanks, Jin431! The fur collar is in perfect condition for all these years. My padded Cals, one made with heavyweight (cowhide?), the other with mid/heavy leather. The 2nd one is completed with a basket Sam Browne belt I got for practically nothing. The next step is finding vtg fur collars for...

    My first flight jacket! A vintage Gino's with Serval zipper working like the 1st day. No scratches, marks, or breaks on leather. Cuffs and waistbands are in mint condition! Very happy with this for very few bucks.
