New arrival, 50's Levis Suede Short horn. It's in perfect condition, the owner bought it back 1973 from New Zealand.

epic. I've been on the hunt for a brown suede something too. I kind of want something in-between a type 3 and maybe something slightly longer. Not a lot out there in the used market. I really like Todd Synder Dylan jacket but jeez $1k. This is really nice though. Congrats!

Agree. @Leigh H has been quietly putting together a most epic collection. I think @Marc mndt has one of those truckers as well.

Thanks Will, this forum has been a huge inspiration and fuelled my hoarding :) . It makes me feel like I’m not the only crazy one collecting jackets. I’ve just setup an Instagram account.

The Kit Karson came in. About the nicest vintage jacket I have handled. Nearly identical to the wool Wolf. I had found a grail….and then noticed the seams were busted wide open underneath both pits and the zipper was coming undone. If I had a dog, I woulda kicked it. So, painfully, and mostly on the principality of it all (to quote Big Perm), it is going back.

Oh man, Dena would make short work of the seam repairs. Maybe the seller can knock $100 off the price?

Essentially the entire jacket would need to be redone. It was weak all over. The pits were open enough for my hand and arm to fit into lol. And one pocket zip and probably the main zip need replacing. It would be way more that $100. Then shipping to and from Ms. Dena. Not for me. But I will say, what a jacket.

5* HH brown pullup. I like this jacket quite a bit. The leather is good quality and it's warm. I have the wool lined body and quilted satin sleeves. Took a nice walkabout in a T-shirt and jacket and was comfortable. Temperature was about 55F.
