Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

[jeo]

They want $350 on Instagram for it. I'm passing anyway.

Funny enough, I found this exact jacket before it had a condition and lining ripped out on this forum. Note the identical back creasing etc.

Yup, looks to be the same jacket someone just removed the lining and conditioned it.

I doubt the shoelace is original.

Interesting. Someone on this forum was looking for a kidney belt within the last 45 days. This might be their huckleberry.

I've seen a lot of Thedi jackets on ebay recently with these same tags, stating they are Made in Bulgaria. I'm by no means a Thedi expert, but I'm skeptical of their authenticity.

- The leather all looks much thinner than other Thedi jackets I've seen and handled.
- I have never heard of Thedi making jackets in Bulgaria
- They claim to be vintage, but the lining and tag looks brand new
- The price feels too good to be true

Does anyone know more about this alleged Bulgarian era of Thedi? I try to assume positive intent.

No... but I've noticed the same and it does seem odd.

I see this posted on Linked In which perhaps explains Bulgaria...

For 8 years (2002-2010) I designed and produced in Harley Davidson's Leather division in Europe. The manufactures took place in Turkey, Bulgaria and India.

Ah, more here too with some older jackets.

Interesting. Thanks for finding that. I’m not linked in.
