    This one looks SWEEEEEET!!!! Yet according to the Seller it's "a little damaged/dirty" Glass Half Empty marketing!!!! Lol....... I say this tongue in cheek.......... the over the top honesty really is shockingly refreshing.

    "Item Condition In Bad Condition Overall" LOL.......... The Japanese listings are SOOOO overly honest. Basically, if it isn't brand new, its listed as "dirty with imperfections" or something like that. Now this one appears night and day when you look at the inside vs. outside......and the...

    Interesting jacket regardless. That one piece back is beautiful and grainy!! I was initially thinking the badge holder was perhaps covering a hole or some other flaw. When I first saw it, it looked perhaps like it was not original and was possibly added to the jacket at a later date. The...

    Even for an old 50s piece, that is an odd placement for the badge holder IMO. I get that its crowded on a CZ but even so.......that Belly Badge is strange to me...... I don't think I have seen one in that location on a jacket before.

    This looks like another RoughWear.......... you don't see these this come up too close together like the one previously posted and this one. The cuffs, the lining, the script font, the colors of the label, and hide quality are all very RoughWear-esque. The Horsehide Label is different...

    Nothing to do with this jacket---no knock----but for some reason I have a weird thing about jackets with Chest pockets only on the right side. I am so used to a left side chest pocket these right siders just look and feel wrong to me. Prolly because I'm a righty...... When I see these jackets...

    I have handled a decent few Hercules jackets but have never come across one with a Union Made tag......I sorta pegged that Herc label as a later vintage than would be the period I would expect to possibly see a Union tag. Can anyone give at least a rough time period with the Union tags were...

    Was Roughwear The Original Manufacturer Of The Iconic Hercules Jacket?

    I agree with this. I wonder if there was ever a transfer of ownership of any kind over the years that might explain a quality shift??
