    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    I'm up to a 10 in envy! Beautiful jackets. You know my admiration for these short wool half-belts. The brown jacket seems similar to a Hercules I own. Your jacket is an old one. There is a date on those grommet zippers, just look. It is small. 2 numbers the second is year. The second...

    The Legendary DURABLE (Wild One) Jacket

    What a magnificent jacket! Who were these guys ? Never seen a Durable with less that magnificent leather. Look through this thread. California Store label is interesting, but makes sense. The Durable label/maker is the biggest mystery in leather jackets. To me, a mystery that the Wild...

    I agree, this is a very cool jacket. It is quite large, seldom see an older jacket this big. The front pockets are outstanding.

    Review of a Rainbow Country x Mirror Ball ltd. Ed 40's style Sports Jacket "Santa Clara" made from mahogany veg tan Buffalo Hide

    Impressive jacket and and review! I like the Cal Mfg. label, one of my favorites. I seen very few vintage jackets by this label. They were right in the center of jacket excellence, Bay Area. I'm curious why more do show up. So many great designs came from this area. They were the...

    Let's talk about wool coats, jackets, and vests

    It is a unique pattern. I have to watch myself looking at the Vintage Wools. So many great looking garments and not often expensive. The same with Vest. There are so many cool vest for not a lot of $. Easy to accumulate a nice pile.

    Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

    One of my favorite post war jackets. I've seen a for sale here and I always hesitated, not sure why. An interesting mix of features, Aviator style, half-belt, fur collar, the cuffs.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Excellent! I bid on that jacket just before I saw your post. It stood out from the crowd and has a Sunrise zipper. Have you thought the "Levi" jacket I sold you is actually a Ralphs-Pugh? I'm going to study those pictures. I know it has the same buckles. edit: no different buckles just...

    Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear

    I owned the same style jacket. Perhaps this is the one I sold? It is a most unique jacket with the snap down collar and pockets, the half-belt back on this style is unusual. Plus the strapped snap cuffs. A The Talon zipper on my jacket and yours are original. This Talon came out around...

    Im looking to identify and evaluate this unique vest

    This is a very cool Vest! I would easily pay $50 for one in my size. No doubt it is deerskin. Early 1950s by the Talon stop box. There were so many big and small deerskin tanners through out the country it is just guess work without the label. Uber of Minnesota, W.B. Place Hartford...

    Wonderful! I don't recall seeing this jacket. Such a great Vintage label.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Sounds about right to me. I do have this lining on a RP. Never seen a Ralphs-Pugh jacket in a Civilian A2 style, certainly a very popular style , which makes sense they would offer such a style. Restitching a loose label is not unheard of, but I don't see the lining wear that would indicate...
