Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[AeroFan_07]

In case you need some more color in your life - Find more than a deal (23" pit to pit - $402 BIN)
Unlike most multi-color this one appears to have some rather thick cowhide to it.

Leather on this one looks incredible for a Sears Leather Shop jacket, which I was under the impression were rather piss poor quality jackets.

I just bought one to check out and so far I find the leather to be quite nice with solid hardware and a cozy liner - the leather shows very nice grainage (though not quite as much as the one you are showing, still very satisfying).

The fit is also great and I think it looks terrific on me… however, the movement is very restricted and limiting. I’m hoping it just needs to break in to my body so I am actually wearing it quite a lot around the house. Not really too hot either - the jacket breathes nicely.

I bought mine for $99 all in and I would not think it’s worth much more than that. For example, I don’t believe I would go out riding in it - the leather is solid but too thin for the road to my taste. But it’s a great fashion piece if it breaks in: mine has wide 70’s lapels (well, they are at least noticeably wider than a Perfecto).

Hope that helps.

That'll sell. These Gen-Z types love that crazy colorway. This is "cool drip", LMAO.

That does look pretty good. Some are piss poor for sure but most I would just say are less than earlier Sears jackets.

You can buy a VW Polo Harlequin to go with it.

Super cheap Oakbrook suede jacket. Size 38, but seems to fit large. Personally really dislike this style of jacket, but it does have a nice crown zip + less than 30 bucks.

Cool Taubers! It feels like the price is fair too, because of the ultra-rare color.

It's not a find or a deal, but the most proper leather jacket to buy after you've won the lottery and own a Lambo, lol.

Prime example of the adage "money can't buy taste".

Wow. A two tone! I wonder if the lining is original to the jacket. I never seen this lining from my favorite maker.

You should ask Larry McKaughan when you see him around California. He used to own this one before selling it to a Japanese collector. California Sportswear did it again, huh?

Yes! I got to get to know our friend Larry. Never met him.
