Japanese spambot ebay machine is in full effect. Many cool “Bangson model E” variants.
Pics don't look to bad. They might have better leather than the current comp.weight. lol.

Loool I was laughing just yesterday at Bangson! Especially the "There Is A Violent Shiv Translation Vanson Bangson". I'm not sure what's going on there but it sounds interesting.
Who goes and puts a band sticker on a $1600 jacket, and then rips it off !?!
I don’t even put stickers on my car cuz some of those adhesives pull off the paint.

No clue but this shouldn't happen no matter the price of the jacket.

You're going to avoid an entire brand because some dummy put a sticker with god-knows-what adhesive on it, and then tried to rip it off? Also worth noting further along in that thread:
"I did take off some finish on my cxl Aero having a sticker on it a while ago, but it was so minimal I can't see where it now, it just left some slightly matte spots."

If you're looking for something minimally sturdy that is pretty damning... otherwise it's ok I guess. It depends what you are looking for.
I don't see how this can't be a reasonable deal breaker for prospective customers?

Personally, I never got really to warm to leather jackets in a denim jacket design. Of course that is everyone's own taste and matter...

Most of the type I / II leather jackets I've seen a so far were from Japanese makers which for some reason changed the proportions of the jacket, making it long and slim instead of short and boxy.
The JL version looks a lot better imo because they got the proportions right.

Not sure how much it matters, but that particular FCL you posted is based off a Lee denim jacket, NOT the Levis 506XX Type 1. I have the FCL Richmond (which is the actual Type 1) and it's definitely short and not really all that slim.

I don't know the specs on these early Truckers. The FC seems a bit long, but mine is their largest size 46. I could probably have done well in their size 44.
I'm going to do a thread on mine. Hopefully other owners can share their jackets.
This show the length

Is there a front pic?
I didn’t see one on FB. Just the back.
