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

    This HD Sportster 'one pocket' came in the mail last week. I've been hunting down one of these for months, however it's been a struggle to find one in my size without paying in the $500-700 range. The seller gave me some odd measurements, but he accepted my $90 offer which was a gamble I was...

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

    Recently found a vintage Kehoe that fits me well. They might be a "copy" brand but I prefer the cut of this jacket over most of my vintage Brooks. The leather is not as good of quality as a vintage Bates, but still quite nice - and this example has some really nice grain/creases on the sleeves.

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

    Yep I remember seeing Terry's YouTube video of his jacket. I too like the unique angle of the chest pocket...not something you typically see. In your YouTube video, I thought your version was black and not brown - I like this brown version as well. You mentioned in your review the Excelled...

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

    Purchased this vintage (mint) Excelled half-belt today - surprisingly still has the older style label glued to the lining which tend to fall off. I rarely see old Excelled jackets that are made of horsehide so I had to have it... plus, it's my size, which is always a bonus dealing with anything...

    Recent purchase from @regius - great guy to deal with all around. Circa 50's-60's steerhide bootlegger style cross-zip - made by 'The Leather Garment Co Inc' out of San Francisco. I know nothing of this particular jacket maker, but the quality is fantastic.

    FS - vintage Sears/Hercules horsehide half-belt crosszip - size 38

    Up for grabs is what I believe to be a Sears Hercules half-belt crosszip made out of horsehide - there is no label of maker or hide type, but I own plenty of vintage horsehide, and this leather is indeed horse. I narrowed in on the manufacturer of this particular jacket after seeing an identical...

    FS - NorShor Leather horsehide half-belt - size 42

    Up for grabs is a NorShor half-belt made from Horween horsehide - the leather has some phenomenal grain throughout. The main zip is a NOS Conmatic. Jacket is in practically new condition - tried on once, found it to not fit me - I'm a 44-46, this fits like a 42, or a tight 44. Asking $470...

    I agree :) I own 4 other original deck jackets (in 44's/46's) and I paid double my asking price for each of those. I'm hoping for a quick sale to clear up closet space.
