Just got these but simply not the fit I'm after.
✶INFO✶
Langlitz leather pants, model Westerns. Scott of Langlitz confirmed them to be made from heavy horsehide. Manufactured in the early 60's or maybe even late 50's (feel free to ask yourself). Omega-Grail.
$300 + shipping. PP/FF. Non negotiable.
Brand new pair in cowhide will set you back more than a thousand dollars and it will look like a pair of leather pants. That's great if that's what you're after.
These, on the other hand, just might be the coolest looking leather pants that I've ever seen. We buy old stuff 'cause it looks good and it doesn't get any better than this.
Regardless, this is still a Langlitz piece which means even after I don't even know how many years, these pants are gonna do their job on a bike just as the day they were made. Ain't just for the show, you're getting here a perfect pair of legit motorcycle leather pants and that's the coolest part.
If I was a collector, these would be the crown jewel of my collection but I'm not a collector. I'm an explorer & I want to wear the stuff I buy.
✶FEATURES✶
Four zippered pocket setup. Snap-on fly closure (never had a zipper). Cuff TALON zippers. Fully lined. Also, horsehide. Langlitz horsehide. Never did though I'd ever see it in person. More rare than... Anything.
✶CONDITION✶
While clearly heavily worn in, the horsehide is as good as it's always been. Thick, soft, pliable & healthy. No cuts, scuffs, etc.; Just creases, intense fading and a load of character. Re-dyed would make them look 5 years old! @JMax, who kindly proxied these to me, can hopefully confirm this.
Two noteworthy issues of which one isn't even an issue...
• The pants have been narrowed at the waist. The alteration has been done by hand, charmingly nicely at that. This just makes them coller in my opinion but it's something I gotta note either way.
• Left back-pocet zipper pull tab is missing.
All else, all good. No odor of any kind.
✶MEASUREMENTS✶
Fit like a regular, straight Levi's jeans sized W34/L32 (approx.) with a high rise & the exact measurements are...
Any questions? Ask away. Shipping from European Union. Thanks!
