These are precisely the kind of fits and images that made me never want a cross zip when I started collecting jackets. These "guys" both look incredibly feminine to me...the vogue guy looks like a west side story wardrobe fail and the second one might well be a lady-boy wanker prostitute. I suppose they both have nice purses though, so that's something.

I am not getting into the discussion, but I am formally asking permission to borrow “Westside story wardrobe fail”…!

I have to disagree…the Vogue image and wherever you found that other one came from…the jackets I see here (including my own cross zip) have nothing in common with the fit or build of those two. Those look like a women’s jacket being worn by (presumably?) men.

@ton312 You must have introduced it other thread already, but I just want to ask again, what is that jacket and which hide? So darn cool.

It's super overpriced. Even myself living in the same city I can't be bothered to look at the stuff.

Definitely. The jackets don’t sell. Here and there perhaps, but I’ve got a few in my favs that have been there a long time. And will probably be there awhile more. I’ll wait for the 60% off sale.

Some jackets they got are worth the money they're asking, some aren't. But for instance, the 50's Sears & some other, they're priced very accordingly.
This has been my dream jacket since years ago when I first discovered it...
https://www.etsy.com/listing/946235725/early-50s-hercules-steerhide-d-pocket
...and I've only seen a handful of them in all this time I've spent digging through eBay and never one in such a fantastic condition. There must've been like 20 Buco's I'd see on each of these.

On the other hand, it's a lot of money. I keep thinking about it but I got the 60's one and objectively, there's too little difference...

But anyway, what I'm saying, this is a real gem of a jacket. Something you'd be hard pressed to find in the USA, let alone in Europe.

You found the Spaniard on Etsy, always nice stuff, always overpriced. I bought a Cal from her once, very nice jacket, smelled of mold

Dam she sure sources some desirable jackets through

I had not looked at the complete inventory until today. They do have an impressive display of jackets. Their Sportclad MC jacket sure looks nice, don't recall the size. One of the Californian is also very nice. I also highly recommend the Ralphs-Pugh, except the price!

I would like to get those prices for jackets, but I don't see that happening. I may use my etsy shop again and put some jackets up and see what happens.
