Right, so I know there's an entire sub-forum devoted to this but... Not only do I constantly keep forgetting about it (and I don't think I'm alone on this) but since it's intended for general vintage finds of all kinds, there's just too many stuff to browse through - so - how about a thread dedicated only to good deals on leather jackets?

eBay, Etsy, Grailed, etc. - anything goes as long as the listings aren't yours.

Perhaps it should be for fixed price listings only?

Not exactly a good deal but being rare, it certainly is a find so might be relevant to this thread. Plus it's my favorite Vanson jacket ever. Hell, I'd buy it just to have two.

Yep, agreed. As long as it's a good deal.

This also is a helluva good deal right there. These are quality jackets and indeed do cost a lot these days.

Not really my style, but kind of a nice looking jacket for the money. Might have the worlds coolest half belt but they haven't put up back pictures for some reason.

£75

This jacket has been on sale for months. The seller is Sheffield based as am I and a while ago I asked to see it to try it on and check out the staining on the left sleeve - he said no and I should buy it now and pay and if it didn’t fit he’d refund me. I declined his offer as I wasn’t too keen on the ‘stain’ and the lack of pics.

GREAT idea for a thread.

Here's an absolute STEAL on a unlabeled Kehoe cafe racer. If I didn't already have one in the same color, I would've already purchased it.

Hell, I'm tempted to buy it and flip it for a profit.

Seriously, someone BUY THIS.

OK, you talked me into it! Missed out on a black Brooks earlier this evening, and not satisfied with description and responses from another seller of a brown Brooks. So I'll put my trust in TFL collective.

Thanks for the link and recommendation!
