Terry spoke highly of this jacket when it was posted. Price was very fair and numbers lined exactly up. Didn’t have to think too much when I purchased.
Very nice lightweight jacket that’s been cared for (hopefully I can keep that up) for a change of pace.

This is really great. New such jackets out of Japan and elsewhere can cost upwards of a grand; this is better.

Looks fine! Nice to have at least one vintage Suede and this is a nice one. No doubt a Windward like mine. Be gentle with it.

Gorgeous jacket. I wanted to grab it myself, but the chest was too small if I remember correctly.

Picked up this awesome Al’s CHP over the weekend. It’s super heavy at ~8 lbs. Only thing is, the arms are incredibly long and go over about half of my palms :/ I’m seriously considering getting the extra length taken off. Been looking for an awesome CHP like this for a while now.

Those sleeves are seriously long. Awesome jacket, should be well worth to fix!

Leather looks thick, could even pass for Elg skin. Great find. Has a Lewis Leathers vibe too.

No jacket but I found these tree bob brown pants flares with the tags attached in my size. I’m not holding back anymore. I think this may in fact be what my midlife crisis looks like. I keep telling my wife……
“It could be worse?”

I liked the suede jacket I got so much I saw another one with the quite similar measurements and couldn't resist it. A couple jackets go out, a couple light suede ones come in. Looks pretty old, pretty nice condition.
Yes, this Talon zipper looks old, @tmitchell59 I am sure can help in dating it...I liked the suede jacket I got so much I saw another one with the quite similar measurements and couldn't resist it. A couple jackets go out, a couple light suede ones come in. Looks pretty old, pretty nice condition.

Shanhouse of Rockford, Illinois......Zipper is c.1935. This is a very cool jacket. I have one Shanhouse jacket. The produced outerwear through the 1950s, not only leather but cloth materials too.Yes, this Talon zipper looks old, @tmitchell59 I am sure can help in dating it...

JL arrived. 2 mm thick, mega-heavy, white leather. Fully armoured. Quilt lined. Perfect jacket. I don't understand why is it that white leather is consistently thicker than any other. Or maybe that's just my experience. In any case, now I gotta dig out all the armour to make it wearable but with this & Vanson, honestly can't wait for cold(er) days.

I'm looking forward to more pics/fit pics of the Shanhouse. Here is another on ebay
