Chinese leather jackets

I have two jackets from marked as Veluokdly. One horsehide D pocket from Tailor Brando bought from eBay, and a horsehide Mulholland bought from Crush on Retro. Both are pretty good quality, but the repo Talon zipper on the D pocket is not that great. It got stuck and the the teeth became all cattywompus. To the credit of Tailor Brando, they sent me a free replacement zipper quickly to get it repaired/replaced. So customer service is good with Tailor Brando.

I don't know if the problem is because I'm in Europe, but the link doesn't work. Thanks anyway.
I'm also in Europe so that shouldn't be it. Strange, I can open it in incognito mode as well so don't know why it doesn't work.

Maybe try searching by "Tailor Brando Washed Old Tea Core Horse Leather 1940s Classic American Retro Lapel Men's Genuine Leather Jacket" and it shows up?

@NCF Man that one looks pretty damn legit, especially on you. Which exact one is this?
I don't get people choosing the overdyed stuff with the reddish brown already showing through when new at all, but your solid black looks very nice.

I'm very confused about the labeling. What is the brand? I have a "Veluokldly" horsehide jacket that I actually love.

But if I order one from "Brando Leathers" on eBay, am I getting the same maker's work or what? Are they all "Crush on Retro" or is that something different?

My "Veluokldly" came to me second hand, so I have no experience with actually ordering a Chinese brand.

Dylan works directly with the factory/makers and does personalized QC, it’s possible CoR and Brando get jackets from the same maker but I trust his OCD level of communication to nail the size and to get a quality version.

I can't say with certainty, but I believe (as has been mentioned here before) that all of these "shops" are just resellers. I've no clue who actually manufactures that labelled brand

Thanks man! Given that I dont know anything about leather I figured that just solid black would be the best alternative. If something else shows up after some wear, that’s just a bonus

The one I bought is this one: https://crushonretro.com/products/riding-leather-jacket-for-men-j24-cowhide?variant=43113611067446
and the main reason is because that was the shortest one.
