Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[Kubatu]

Decent looking CR, sz 44 (but maybe a little bigger); $56 + shipping, with offer. Label missing with the zip-out. Cut like a Beau Breed I'm familiar with, but the leather looks maybe a tad heavier. If not a BB, then a Brooks, possibly?

Almost certainly a Beau Breed, I think. Looks practically identical to this one that actually has tags, albeit not as in nice condition.

It could be Sears too. Later, 70's CR. They were going through the styles a lot quicker than back in the days. I had a very similar one.

Perfecto!

Hey Terry, if that Seattle Woolen with the no belt loops is a big fit for you and are possibly interested in swapping for mine (with cash to balance conditional differences) PM me. I know you don't just collect for size and fit but I thought maybe you'd be interested.

THE ALLLLLL-VALLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ohhh that's GOLDEN bro!!!!!!!!!!! One of the truly formative films of my youth. I still gotta check out the whole Kobra Kai series on YouTube. I feel like its some sort of Sacrament I am meant to experience. I think Macchio was like 43 in that first movie!!!! So he's like prolly in his 80s now but he'll always be DANIEL SAHN to me!!!! If you google it, you'll find Ralph Macchio actually saved a beached dolphin years back when he was outta the limelight!!! Is there ANYTHING Macchio CAN'T do!?!?!?!!?!?!?? He's prolly working on a Covid vaccine as we speak!!!!!

"Get that Star Glove jacket a BODY BAAAAAGGGGG!! YEAAAHHH!!!!"

awesome. I’m the anti-Laruso. I enjoyed when his knuckles bled. Lol. Crybaby and little instigator. Hopefully he gets his in the series. Kidding of course... or am I?

That's funny because when I was a teenager and the original movie came out, I was all for Daniel. Now, years later I identify with Johnny and want to see him do well. Well written!

That one is really nice! Ohter than the zipper pull it literally looks brand-new! Quite a bargain at this price and apparently and off the rack Size 44.

If it fits. Does it seem a little tight in the chest and short in the sleeve for a 44? I've never had a Langlitz on, do they somehow fit different?

Chest 22.5” (underarm to underarm)
Shoulder 20” (seam to seam)
Back length 28” (collar seam all the way down)
Sleeve 25” (top shoulder seam to end of cuff)

stock patterns their jackets are cut to fit trim and work well in the riding position they were designed to ride in at as fashion jackets
