Now is this something real or is it fake? I thought it was fake because look at those sleeve ends. Pretty poor execution. But maybe this is how Buco's are? I'm not knowledgeable on Buco's.

I know this seller sold fake RRL before and I highly suspect a californian sportswear he had listed was fake as well. Therefore I'm suspicious of this Buco as well. But I could be wrong.

I don't really know the details of Buco designs, but the jacket looks off somehow to me. I've never seen a brown label Buco with the tag size to the right, also. It's always been below:

Plus those chest zippers are all 60s talons, right? Some brief googling indicates Buco stopped using this label prior to 1950. I guess they could all be replaced, but the jacket doesn't look like it's seen that much wear. I dunno. Again, I don't know enough to say anything definitively, but it does look a bit weird to me.

Edit: The label text color is also different. Green with a thin white border on brown versus completely white on brown.

Even the font is different / off.

Even if this is 1000% legit Buco, which it isn't, do you guys seriously think this looks worthy of your money? Would you look at this jacket twice if it didn't have a Buco label?

Ralph Lauren Round Hill reversible goatskin jacket. The seller is named Japan-Island, so he might be another unofficial proxy.

This Penney's in horsehide for $350 is not a crazy price at all. Nice patina.
