    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    Beautiful Cal in pristine condition! No epaulettes nor gussets, which are more of 1960s features. This jacket reminds me of my non-padded Cal, with ring pulls at pockets, Serval at front but Talon at cuffs. It doesn't have gussets, either. And judging by the hide of your Cal, I'll bet the touch...

    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    Is it possible to see the jacket? Front, back and a shot of inside the inner pocket. It's common to find the size and a letter in red, blue pen... Serval zippers was a company that closed in 1973, but its hardware is found in jackets made throughout the whole 70s, even early 80s.

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Thank you! I considered to use iron-on adhesive tape, but there's no space there to iron without the risk of burning the leather. As it's said, if I'd have removed the zipper, just the final area, I'd have done better, because I'd use iron-on adhesive instead of fabric glue.

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Thank you! Before getting to work, I considered taking the pin out. As well as to unstitch the final part of the zipper from the jacket, but both options were too much laborious for me. Of course, if I had, I'd get a better result. Nevertheless, the glue used is hard, so the new tape stays in...

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Now I realize that I didn't show the jacket. Is this one what was called "Flying Tiger"? Without L.L. Bean label. Brown goatskin, nylon lining and lambskin mouton collar. Cuffs and waistbands are intact. There are buttons behind the collar, and it comes with a strip of leather with 2 eyelets (to...

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Yesterday I took this LL Bean flight jacket for a steal. Overall is nice, except for the Scovill zipper: lack of pull tab and ripped tape behind the insertion. Ok, today I've decided to fix both problems at once, so I've removed a brass paper-clip puller from a zipper that I bought months ago...

    Vintage Cal - It's changing my outlook on things

    Leigh, what a jacket! I think it's time to search & find a brown Cal like yours, and if this comes with fur collar, much better!:D Your other Cal with the little front pocket is amazing too. I used to check the cuffs to distinguish Star Glove and Cal-Leather (buttoned or zippered), but I...

    ^^ Two hours earlier, I found what I think it's a 70s Lesco at a thrift store. Tempted, but I didn't take.
