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

    Well, I did a little search about Lesco, especially 'cause many times I find their jackets in almost every vintage store I visit. But nothing better than rescuing the post of @Gamma68 talking about their history.

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

    On the way this Lesco I bought yesterday. Serval zippers. One half unstitched belt loop, easily fixable. Let's see what kind of leather is that, but my guess it's steerhide.

    Cal Leathers Cross Zip CHP Size 42-44 (?)

    One extra inner pocket, interesting. This hide looks awesome! If this jacket was 20-21" p2p, I'd consider taking it. And about the fraying tape on this Serval zip, it's very easy to fix. GLWS!

    Cal Leather & Serval zip. Is it ok?

    I have a Cal with #10 Talon zipper and Serval on the cuffs, another with Serval as main zip and Talon of cuffs, and other with all Talon (cuffs and pockets) but the big one was replaced by YKK :') So, yes, yours is original. You can determine the period of making by the hardware, so I guess this...

    Beautiful Cal. I saw that at my morning and made me recall one of mine. The same type of leather except for the lack of padding and epaulettes. It's like they were made one after the other on the same day.

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    In my early attempts to fix frayed zips, I used superglue. DON'T do it. The glue crystallize, no matter the quantity you put, and this makes the fibers break. And, as @ton312 says, the tape won't fit inside the slider. I also added this repair of a Talon that may help you. Anyway, in your case...

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    Yesterday, I came across these pictures of a cool man riding in leather. No idea who he was, but the jacket was familiar to me. And that Indian... man, what a presence! Source: royalenfields.com Vaughn Monroe (October 7, 1911 - May 21, 1973) was a singer, trumpeter and big band leader, most...

    Yes. Mine is worse, no lining and rips everywhere. Fortunately I took it for very few. I contacted a tailor to put a new lining and sew some parts.

    I always insert the pic by URL on the post. I make sure the image isn't too big, although it automatically adjusts to the width if I'm not wrong.
