    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Seems like someone was interested in a jacket like this a while back, maybe on the 5 Star discussion. Unusual leather - kind of like a very lightly oiled or waxed suede maybe. Anyway, something different, at least from what I'm used to seeing. 20" P2P, 18" Shoulder to shoulder, 24.5" sleeve...

    Too bad the sleeve length is only 21.5"! I was getting excited until I saw that :-( Will be a great buy for that right person!

    Ultimate Leather Conditioner Comparison (on Reddit)

    My limited experience with Skidmore's + petroleum jelly is that the leather keeps improving even many weeks after application (depending on how dry or damaged the leather was), so going light with it, adding more as needed, and giving it lots of time. I was just looking at my Skidmore's +...

    Thanks for helping educate me! I'd love to hear what about the leather has you say it looks poor quality. I'm relatively new to exploring older jackets. To me, the leather looks similar to jackets I've seen posted here and elsewhere that are much older than the 90s and that are considered good...

    Ultimate Leather Conditioner Comparison (on Reddit)

    Thanks Marc! Yes, very similar jacket. A few minor differences in the number of panels used on the back and on the sleeves, and different side cinch buckles. But same raglan sleeves and same "split" back; similar pockets. I like the steeper pocket angle and the simpler back design on mine; but I...

    Ultimate Leather Conditioner Comparison (on Reddit)

    Sounds like if the leather needs conditioning, then using something that will truly hydrate the fibers / interior of the leather would be best before using Urad. I have to say I've been quite impressed with Skidmore's leather cream, either by itself or mixed approx. 1:1 with petroleum jelly for...

    Thanks for the info that it reminds you of a Top Notch. I'm hoping someone might be able to ID it at some point. Terry thinks it might have been made in California / US west, but doesn't know maker. The closest anyone has has come is the Raglan sleeve jacket in Tanaka's book from the 30s, but so...

    Thanks! Yes, I did read the measurements. I'm looking for 19-19.5" P2P, 16-17" shoulders - I'm skinny :-). This one is 22" P2P and 19" shoulders. Thanks though Wildhorses!! Being skinny does have it advantages though. I'm sure it helped in scoring this rare 30s HH recently. Have to figure it...
