Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[Guppy]

Yea, I did. They probably don't give a F. I know you can relate guppy. Imagine buying the 113 context on bin for a steal.....an then it gets canceled. Glad that wasn't the case brother, enjoy Yours!

I've had two too good to be true sales fall through, so I do know what it's like. A new Aero Half-belt for $235, supposedly sold in person at a physical store before I bought it on eBay, and an Aero Thunder Bay that went for opening bid, and then the seller decided that his son wanted it so he canceled the sale. Ebay didn't do anything to enforce the sale as far as I know. It still bothers me. Obviously these were crazy deals for the sellers but they're the ones who listed them.

I had forgotten that YSL did an Indian Ranger repro. It's interesting that they went in on most of the details, except of course keeping their signature zippers.

The Margiela one is more impressive, if arguably less creative, because that one was a fashion house doing an exact repro of the Indian Ranger, just in luxe materials.

This seller has other nice jackets, notably a nice 90s Vanson C2, 46, with Talon zips, for 375 obo. If it was a 38, I'd be making an offer.

In case you didn’t see it, a Margiela IR is for sale on eBay.

Too small for me but I dare say that's not badly priced for what it is. $1600 for a luxury fashion house's direct repro of an off-the-beaten path* classic is significantly more interesting than yet another RMC Buco or something.


In contrast to the standard SLP moto being a mishmash of Schott and Lewis with worse proportions than either.

From now on, its not a win until it ships!

 

[J Leather Investigater]

Yep.

Seller has got some nice jackets for sale. Most in the 40 range.

Edit- someone made out like a bandit on the 50/60s Dur-o-Jak police jacket this guy was selling. Seriously.

Another cal he listed

Not a fan of 2 panel backs when there is a seam running straight down middle. Imo.....flaw

If it helps with fit I don’t mind, but prefer without. Some TFLers who have owned this jacket swear by it.

This seller seems cool too. I’ve purchased from him.

Can anyone tell if this in an official Schott or a knock off?
