Hope I am putting this in the appropriate thread. If not, apologies. This is the label of a jacket I acquired. I've seen some older posts concerning Natal/Natel. Am not sure if anyone ever solved the mystery of who made these jackets. This jacket was purchased at Kelly's Leather Works in Chicago, who I believed closed within the past few years. I'll try to post some photos of the jacket.

'Here is the Natel jacket. I am a bigger guy, so my jackets are not going to look as ***y as many on this forum. It is like brand new. Paid $100 for it. Would appreciate any feedback on this brand and whether it was a good purchase in the eyes of the experts. Many thanks!

Brilliant! The color looks better! Did you oil/ condition it? I too am sporting the star-cardia again today. I hot watered the collar and clipped it so it lays flat. Will repeat after I get home from the store. This one feels much more 70’s with this collar, which may require a pilots license to wear. LOL.
