    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Johnson Leather San Francisco. Everybody loves a Leather trucker. A style that can be addictive. This jacket is from the early 80s, I was told. The Bay Area was home to many of the best makers in the Golden Years. Johnson Leather maintains that heritage A very nice jacket with comfortable...

    California Sportswear Co Speed King (Horsehide Leather Jacket)

    No longer the "patch Pocket". I owned 3 of these, I believe you owned one? I just mailed off one today. I'm keeping one that is quite clean too, but has only a CSC horsehide tag. This was a popular model, perhaps the name helped! I have never seen anything like the hang tag you found...

    No I don't own the JC jacket. Not a fan of those pockets. Hard to say on the Sportclad cuffs. CSC impresses again. I would estimate these button jackets are from the WWII era.

    Brand Catalogs

    I share you interest in catalogs, brochures, etc. I also have the catalog you are calling 1980. How did you arrive at that date? I can find no dates in mine. I missed out on a Herms Cafe racer a couple of times. It may have been too small. He had quite a catalog. Do you know what happened...

    My favorite from the Freewheelers. Did not know it was based on a California Sportswear jacket. Buttoned jackets from this era always attract my attention. Just don't see them, the zipper was so dominant.

    I like it! I doubt pre-war, but 40s. Difficult to find old suede in such good condition.

    50s Roughwear Clothing MC jacket-Horsehide-Size 40

    Big for a marked 40. I'm 183 pounds and tight in the middle. I've come to a crossroad with jacket collecting. I've just paid for my collection with some recent sales. I've sold several of my best. Another of the best is going across the seas tomorrow. There are plenty left. I will be...

    50s Roughwear Clothing MC jacket-Horsehide-Size 40

    Until recently this is the only Roughwear labeled MC jacket I had seen. They made many jackets for Sears and others but with the retailers label. I would say this one is early 50s. Does not have the corduroy hem often seen in their catalog jacckets. Everything works and the leather is in...

    Lost Worlds Test-4+ounce-size 44-original owner

    I bought this jacket from Stu at Lost Worlds probably 12 years ago. I loved the vintage Test he pictured. He ask how heavy and I had no idea what weight was, so he said "HighTest". This was the old reference to "High Test" gasoline. The jacket weights 8 pounds and the hide is very thick. I...

    Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

    I saw this jacket on ebay. It did not last long. Did you buy it? I have a Monarch with a similar button front. The ebay jacket is most interesting.
