** SOLD ** Just checking to see if anyone is interested in my ANJ-3 leather flight jacket before it goes to eBay. Black goatskin in size XL (fits 46-48R) - like new, except the map pocket snap has come loose. Plan to sell for $110.00 shipped in the US ($299 at Sporty's). Let me know if you...

Rios of Mercedes boots (new-to-me). This is my first pair from this maker, so I know little about them (other than positive comments about the maker here on TFL) – not sure of vintage, model, etc. (and would appreciate any info from those more knowledgeable about ROM boots). Very impressed...
