    Selling nearly new brown Himel Bros. shinki horsehide heron

    My Himel Kensington doesn't have a Shinki label either...and it's definitely a Shinki hide... but I bought it back in 2017.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I've been hunting for a suede Schott Rancher in a size 42 for quite a while now. And I finally scored one-- just came in yesterday. The suede on these vintage Schott Trucker jackets is very thick and grainy. Best of all, the arms are a little longer than on the equivalent vintage Levis suede...

    Yes, I kind of doubted that this had anything to do with a vintage Buco, other than the label. Looks all wrong to me.

    FS : New Aero Sheene tumbled cxl cordovan

    That is simply a work of art! The bottom front fit looks perfect. But I see how the back could feel a bit long. I've been there with a Sheene- it took me 3 tries to get mine just right. Unlike other jackets, there's absolutely no wiggle room for error on a Sheene. If it's not the perfect fit...

    Vintage Cal Leather Horsehide Jacket- Size 44/42

    Fresh to market- vintage Cal Leather Horsehide CHP jacket. This is a recent flea market find, and in beautiful original vintage condition. The leather is super supple, and the lining is intact. Inside pocket. Just aged perfectly with some well earned minor scuffs and gentle wear over the years...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    Yep. Just checked my original Langlitz order. No extra charge for pinstripes, yoke, inner pocket, and a few other modifications. Cost for jacket with all the mods (mid weight cowhide, contrast stitching, gusseted sleeves, snap on map pocket) was an even $1000. The only extra charge was for elbow...

    Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

    I may be wrong, but I don't recall paying extra for the back pinstripes on my custom Langlitz order. I think they'll add them at no extra charge. And I definitely did not pay extra for the yoke- it's part of the signature Cascade design.

    Nice. It's got a newer label on it. But at that price, one might be better off just going the custom order route directly from Langlitz.

    Langlitz Cascade 50 years + OLD.

    Just as beautiful as I remember it! That was going to be my grail jacket...but sadly, after putting it on, I knew within moments the jacket was too big. I'm glad to see it go to a good home and all the lovely restoration you're doing. One could buy a brand new one from Langlitz, and wear it for...

    Celebrities jackets

    Dang! Who knows- might even be the same jacket that Freddie owned! Check for glitter and illicit white powder residue in the pocket lining. Then... Rock it!!

    Just spotted on the Cal Leather Instagram feed... "In addition to James Dean owning wearing a Cal Leather, rock legend Freddie Mercury had this Cal Leather LAPD model with custom padding."

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Fresh find... Just picked this custom Cal Leather horsehide jacket this morning at the flea market. Size 42-44. Nice long sleeves. Not sure if I'm keeping it or not, (already have one in the same style) but I couldn't say no...Hopeless addict. ;-(

    Leather Trucker Levi's / Lee / Type-whatever jackets!

    I just got done talking to him a while ago. He said deer has the most color and weight options, and is the most pliable. Buffalo, or American Bison actually, is still soft but has the least stretchiness while Elk is in between. Elk is the most exotic of the bunch and all the ones I see are...
