BIN now or cry later. Branded = Cal. Branded = Vanson. Branded > All else.

I own 2 Branded jackets. One could debate whether they are as good as Vanson or Cal, but at half or less of the price it's a no-brainer what to buy for someone on a budget and/or looking for value.

22” P2P. A bit larger and I would have gone for it. Cause I don’t have enough CHP cross zips.

It depends on the Branded you buy, Branded made tons of jackets for a bunch of different markets . In my experience the leather quality of Branded is on par with langlitz but the quality control on their jackets is another story.

Brooks, red & black label, sz 42, 22" p2p; $180 w/offer. Zip-out liner included. Interestingly, Coats & Clark zippers, which I haven't noticed on a Brooks before—but maybe I just haven't been paying attention.

When Brooks was making CR jackets for Harley Davidson the HDs had the Coats & Clark chest zips. I've seen other chest zips on Brooks CRs as well. I think they just used what was easily at hand at times...

I am not sure if this is the right discussion to ask but since it is about leather jackets and findings i wanted to share my thrift shop finding and inquire for more information about this worn and currently dirty TT leathers jacket (46'' ; 117cm) that has a small hole in the back: how old is it and is it even worth anything? (since i am a neophyte with no knowledge about these things). I appreciate your help with this question!

You can always ask in this thread here...

But in any case, TT Leathers is a quality UK maker and their jackets are always worth something. I'd estimate it at $150 or so though it depends on the model. Your jacket is luckily a very nice style with less often seen fringes so maybe you could sell it for a bit more. There's always a market for them as they're classic UK style that's always in demand. As for dating it, I'd say late 70's or early 80's.

$55 US + shipping from the UK; S2S - 19", P2P 21", sleeve 22", back length 27.5"

Tried to copy and paste the url, but it was crazy long. I assume you can copy and paste the above title into the ebay search bar and you should get it.

$30 for a perfect vest. Would just BIN it if the seller shipped International.
