Depression Era jackets

[gillock]

Hi,

I'm after a 1930's depression era jacket....something with the correct looking lapels waist etc.

Just wondering if anyone out there has any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

Look at Aero's website (aeroleatherclothing.com).

Thanks for the info, I was looking more towards something in material and not leather. Although not a denim chore coat. Sorry not much to go on although this link may help.http://www.pdhyman.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/color018.sJPG_950_2000_0_75_0_50_50.sJPG_.jpeg

I'm thinking the chap in the middle

Have a look at the Reproduction classic workwear thread.

Recently there was a link to a red wool jacket from LVC.

You will also enjoy this thread about Vintage short wool jackets but there are no links to current makers. Just vintage originals.

Last but no least, there is the possibility to get a jacket made byVecona (in germany) with much possibilties for customisation. The jacket in the link is cotton but you can get it made in wool. Also different pockets or a shorter lenght are no prob.

I say go for a Melton wool half belt in dark navy or charcoal with black leather trim accents. A few outits make em includig Aero and Diamond Dave

Don't forget to tell us which one you bought and take pictures. I really like short wool jackets.

this one is still available on French CanCan blog:

it's a corker if you ask me.

Yes, if this is your size- BUY IT!
I almost bought it myself but the sleeves are too short and I think they can't be let out much.
