    Johnson Leathers Brown Sports Jacket - 21" P2P

    This style is called an M-130 and dates to around the 80s. We still make this style as it always has been popular. It looks like 3oz. cowhide that we called redwood and appears to be in very god condition. I hope this helps.

    Jackets at the WW2 Museum

    I have been to this museum almost every other year since it was built. Great photos, history, stories. The veterans that are there with some of the exhibits are a world full of information.

    Please help in dating/placing a mystery time-capsule HWM-type jacket

    Oaky here's my two cents worth of thoughts. The jacket style looks early 50s to me based on the design and collar size. It's a similar style that I have made for a company in Japan years ago. I have seen the leather below the collar on jackets from the 60s. Just Leather in San Jose use to do...

    Just Leather jackets -

    I know the owners for over twenty years, and they are doing well. They have relocated to Arizona a few years ago due to insane rents in the bay area and covid. The company was started by the owners farther back in the sixties I believe. They made great jackets, sad to see them gone.

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    The M-200 is what we call a life after bike jacket it's built for riding but can be worn anywhere. It was made in a 3.5oz. naked cowhide. Based on the patina of the jacket I guess it must be around 25 years old. Alan
