Leisure Wear

Vintage leisure wear rules! No, I'm not talking about 70's garb, I'm talking about '40's gab! Here are some pics of my favorite leisure jackets.

From NY's DL Cerney

Great Jackets! :eusa_clap

 

[Rooster]

Pretty cool! I've never come across that kind of stuff here in the midwest.

 

[J. M. Stovall]

When I was in LA recently I found several of those on vintage shops...and always priced over $200. Yikes.

 

[Jerekson]

On another note...Cosmo Kramer seems to have a liking to these...

 

[Feraud]

Great stuff!

Those are some really great jackets! I still need to find one. Too bad they never seem to turn up anywhere...

Here's a bad picture of a modern iteration, made by Nigel's Soft and from a local high end men's shop. I paid $1.50 for it:

Those are great looking jackets! Where did you get them?

Those are great looking jackets! Where did you get them?

Here, there, and everywhere.

Of the new ones, the houndstooth pendleton style loafer jacket is by DL Cerney, and the two tone gray and black hollywood jacket is by Hollywood Rogue.

If you are looking for this kind of stuff, ebay is your best bet.

Huh, I'd like t find just one of those in my size- 46

 

[Absinthe_1900]

It's not easy, but I've picked up two originals, and one repro jacket in 46L.

When I was in LA recently I found several of those on vintage shops...and always priced over $200. Yikes.

$200 actually isn't bad considering some of the OFAS hysteria that occurs. That's what I picked mine up for.

great thread, resortes. I have some things to add, some extremely interesting and scarce. I'll get to it sometime (need to get some pics first).

How did I miss this thread? I don't really have anything to add to it, maybe a jacket.

Great stuff, resortes.

 

[B. F. Socaspi]

With nice white pants and spectators?!

Oh god. I'd kill for it.

Wow, what a resurrection.....
