    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    There's just so much I don't know, and am still learning, that I can feel really ignorant sometimes. This jacket could be from the 1990s or it could be from the 1940s, or from anytime in between, for the little I know. I also don't know if it is what at TFL is considered vintage. I do know (I...

    A Made-in-Japan Excelled Racer: I need some context here...

    Very cool. I saw that and had been thinking about it, but the measurements were just all wrong for me. Glad you got it!

    A Made-in-Japan Excelled Racer: I need some context here...

    I just picked up this Excelled jacket online, and I could use some info and opinions. I got it because I liked the look and don't already have a jacket in quite the same style/cut. Unfortunately, there were some issues undisclosed by the seller. I don't mind some flaws in a used...

    Good to know. I've always wondered about them. In some pics they can look a bit thin and cheaply constructed, yet what little I've heard has been positive, and some have a very cool look. What's your experience, and what other maker(s) would you compare yours to?
