Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[LVC-HEAD]

All I know is that metal 33 tag should not be on this particular LVC jacket. That metal tag is for an Apalachian MC repro hence the biker description on the back.

Do you happen to know which season this jacket was released in? I’ve bought a handful of things from this seller over the years, he always have cool LVC pieces and ships quick. I actually messaged the seller today about the tag and he said he bought it from another seller and it had that tag on it, so I think he just didn’t realize the tag was incorrect for the jacket. If anyone has other Info on the jacket, I’ll pass it on to him.

I ended up getting it. Thanks for the info. Definitely looking forward to it.

I was wondering if you can please share images of the mouton collar construction. The link to the thread is here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/leather-jacket-fur-mouton-collar-attachment-pattern.108468/

The first post contains a pdf file to reproduce the "standard" 1" graph paper.

You can tell your reliable seller who "ships quick" that before doing anything else they should pull down the listing because intentionally or not, it's fraudulent.

I would stay clear of this one. The dry leather can be reconditioned but that busted seam might be indicative of dry-rot.

Also, the main zipper slider is broken. Which would be easy to replace if only it weren't a crown zip.

After checking the listing, The seller "Pattonsfinest1944" has not provided any measurements in his listing for the Windward jacket Listed. I have been on "The Bay" for 23 years. Any seller who is unwilling to provide the necessary measurements to make an informed decision should be avoided. After checking his site he has the following warning... "Seller does not accept returns" When you see that, it's "Red Flag" NOT TO BUY!!! Unless you intend to resell the item!

Indeed. And resell at a loss, of course as there is sure to be a bunch of omitted issues.

A 1940s police jacket, S/M, maybe Seattle Woolen CO. I don't like the shoulders/sleeve jonction stitching , that I find cheap. Replacement zipper, removed badgeholder, and other modifications. Still a really nice leather.

No idea about the trucker. I think LVC released a number of the suede truckers in different color over time. The tag should be on this mc jacket. The mc jacket came around 2012-14 if I remember correctly.

@ton312 The man is an EXPERT dude!!!!!!!!!!!!! PATTONSFINEST??????????????????????????? This douchebag would be the FIRST soldier Patton woulda SLAPPED!!! The sheer moronic tone of this person............. its hilarious that the entire response is SO EXPLANATORY of this Seller!!!!! It's all nutshelled in the response.......

Basically, the guy is a turd who DOES NOT MEASURE correctly. So when asked, to measure, he does it WRONG and then the prospective buyer loses interest. Yet from HIS/HER myopic perspective, its somehow the HUNDEREDS of Buyers' faults that have convinced him/her that measuring correctly is a WASTE OF TIME.

One would think that if you've have had "OVER A DECADE" full of "HUNDREDS" of prospective buyers ask for measurements AND THEN CHOOSE NOT TO BUY---like, MAYBE--POSSIBLY---PROBABLY--- YER THE PROBLEM!!!!!

Makes ya wonder who the ONE is who actually bought from this bunghole!!!! .

Yep. Providing measurements only helps. If it's not going to be a good fit, they won't buy. It's common sense -- of course a lot of the time people are going to pass once they know it's not going to fit them. But somehow, making it easier for the person for whom it is the right fit able to know that this item will work for them is "a waste of time." Not that buying things hoping they'll fit only to be disappointed is a waste of anyone's time.
