    Seems an odd liner for a California Sportswear. I don't recall seeing that tartan liner in a CS. Perhaps this jacket was relined at some point. I knew some of the loungers had seen this jacket before......

    Unlabeled HB looks to be a 38-40. Looks to be in good condition for the most part. I'm pretty sure I have seen this design as a Hercules jacket. @tmitchell59 may have or have had one...... https://www.ebay.com/itm/224901976351?hash=item345d33d11f%3Ag%3APPcAAOSwbVdiO4vF&LH_ItemCondition=4%7C10

    Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

    BITCHEN AF!!!!!!!!! Gotta wipe the drool off my keyboard.......... What a variety of wearable Vintage!!! 80% of the bad ass vintage leather in the world is concentrated in Illinois (@tmitchell59 and @ton312) and Japan. Someday I'd like to post my stuff to share with the Lounge like this. I...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    One possibility that to me seems perhaps the most plausible is that there were some alterations done in addition to it being an old model. Not saying the entire jacket but perhaps only couple of things. I wonder it that badge holder was added for example?? Maybe the belt assembly?? The...

    Vintage Leather Jacket ID - SCANT Clues.........

    Ohhh this jacket is a nice one!!!! Has the same Scovill GRIPPER ZIPPER pocket zip pulls as I have with that same back configuration with the sort of scallop back yoke and the pleated/bi fold sides atop the obelisks. I agree, that identifying is one of the fun parts of this hobby. Whenever I...

    I agree this is cool. I do wonder if the creases (bale creases??) in the leather are sorta artificially pumping up the patina and the graining though perhaps.

    PUCH!!!!!!!!! When I was like 10 years old, the rage for the older teenagers was if they could get a PUCH Moped. They had bicycle pedals on them that I recall were basically the low gear for getting it going and starting it. Surprised these aren't popular now as a retro oddity like so many...

    Tempting for such vintage in this size but that left shoulder looks shot. I could be wrong and it could just be the photo but if it IS as crispy as it looks and the Seller isn't highlighting that as a flaw or AT LEAST posting a close up of that area, that's kinda lame.

    I have to agree with most of this. Always exceptions though like the Harros........ NOT quite German (though it's their language) but the Vanek jackets (from Anton and Englebert) are Austrian jackets that I tend to really like when I see them. They are pretty rare and no longer being made...

    I find the German epaulettes so very UN-GERMAN........ German design is notoriously pretty NO FRILLish..... Cars, clothes, architecture all seem to be sorta Classy Conservative. Years ago, I had a 1991 Lexus SC 400 coupe. When it got older, I got a 1999 E430 Mercedes sedan and it was night...

    Sick minds think alike. I contacted the seller about the back length and was told it was 24". My message back was, "Too short for me. Cool jacket though. You don't usually see the scallop rear yoke AND epaulettes on the same jacket. I suspect it might be an old Excelled. Best of luck with...
