JMax is about to do something impulsive.

Unlabeled California Sportwear has been seen with a Montgomery Ward label. The example below has the belt removed. I have the same jacket with the belt attached.

These are exceptional jackets.

Through a recent question I have been able to confirm these jackets were made by California Sportswear.

This unique Stitching was ask about when I posted a CSC jacket recently. I had not thought about it until it was pointed out. I knew I had seen this technique before, today I found it. I have suspected these jackets were made by CSC. This confirms it for me.

Seller willing to deal, but the jacket is way too small for me. The All Weather is stunning too.

Interesting how this jacket used side zippers to tighten instead of laces. Effective but might be a bit expensive. This jacket must be a higher priced model in its day, it has more details than others. Unfortunately the belts were cut off right?
