How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

^^ Great to see you got that Western Style Suede (roughout) back there Tony! :)

I personally have had such positive experiences with my straight-zip Branded, that I went looking for a cross zip - this should be incoming later this week and looks in excellent shape...

For those who keep their finger on eBay often, you may recognize this one as it has as it's headline photo the one below, highlighting the colorful pocket liners...making this a little more special, unique piece...

The seller really knew how to photograph details on this jacket, which is part of what sold me on it. It was about "top" dollar for me from this brand (Branded) however it appears both well presented and well cared for. I do wonder just how old it really is.

Special day for me. When I sold this Schott 5 years ago I genuinely regretted it.

Instantly. After a year of constant, multiple times a day, I finally found another. This is a rare style rancher from Schott. Short manufacture in the 70’s. To find another seemed impossible but by chance I found one. Heaviest suede I’ve handled. Masterpiece in western wear!

If you sell this again, you're dead to me

That is a cool looking jacket
And too big in the belly region. Need to get it altered by a tailor but all of those near me refused due to the heavy thick and stiff leather.... Need to get to a special leather tailor for this beast. which is not to be found in my region.... o_O

it’s been a while but the snow in NY has me California dreaming.

I think I’ve finally found myself a Cal. It’s not labeled as such, but we Know how that goes. A little big as well, but I think I could make it work as a cool weather jacket.

Everyone and their brother hopping aboard the C2 train (rightfully so) it seems, but I'm happy with my OG C:

Anyway, I recently missed out on this Vanson Cheyenne in black suede. When I went to sleep there weren't any measurements provided so I waffled on it. The next morning the listing had been updated with pictures showing dimensions, and lo and behold, it was sold.:

So then I turned my eye to this Tenderloin roughout deerskin cossack. But alas, after telling myself I'd sleep on it, it was sold the next day following a price drop:

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times...not going to happen. Now I wouldn't consider this an impulse purchase because I've had my eye on this passively for several months ever since I started exploring the rabbit hole that is the Japan used market. Being on the lightweight end of the spectrum is a blessing and a curse because the choices are endless and the prices can be incredible, thus yielding some great deals (see above examples). But having missed out on two other jackets in the past couple days I ended up pulling the trigger on something pretty unique:

Definitely won't be be garnering the universal acclaim of the C2, but I'm pretty chuffed for this one. I figure I'll let stew in the Buyee warehouse for most of the 30 day free storage window and then have it delivered right before my birthday. Plus that'll give me a month to sell some other stuff to raise funds since I stretched my budget a bit on this. But the opportunity to own a 1 of 5 limited edition (with only 1 made in each size, so 1 of 1 for me) was an extremely strong draw. After doing a reverse image search and digging in deeper on the story behind the development of this jacket I knew I had to make a play for it.

Cool combination of jacket and hat. I could imagine wearing a hat like that, but I wouldn't know when to wear it without feeling like I was wearing a costume. But maybe for my photos? Let's see lol
Very cool with you in any case.
