Very interesting german cross-zip. Looks to be about a modern size 44/46. BIN $275. Seller claims 1940's but the YKK zip makes me think it's newer. View attachment 746027 View attachment 746028 View attachment 746029 I'm tempted...


If the label is an indication of origin, it's Dutch. Made in Utrecht.

Although I don't get what the second word is. The label should say "Lederen Kleding Trio Utrecht" but it looks to say "Lederen Klecllig". Maybe just the photo being weird.

'Lederen kleding' means 'leather clothing' in mid century Dutch grammar. I'm pretty certain 'Trio" was the name of the retailer, situated in Utrecht, I've never heard of a Dutch maker named Trio. If it's made in the Netherlands then it's probably made by Zaal or Damen but it might as well be from a German manufacturer judging by the overall style.

Beautiful Goatskin coat from the late 1930s. This one looks to be in excellent condition. The front buttons need to be changed, the lining and label are original, the belt is attached. I have a collection of Goatskin jackets from this time, I know how fine this leather is. It may fit, I'll see.
