This jacket was made in Japan by high-end vintage repro company, Real McCoys under the Joe McCoy & Co. Leather Clothing Sportswear label. Though made in Japan, for authenticity to original 1930s jackets, the label reads, "styled and tailored in Buffalo, NY". The plaid lined pocketbag bears the union label of the now defunct United Garment Workers of America. It is made from black front quarter horsehide. The jacket is a 1930s cossack style, with a pleated, belted back, bi-swing shoulders, d-ring side adjuster belts, deco buttons, a Talon zipper with deco stopbox, pin-lock slider and reinforcement grommets, and a Talon marked ball zipper on the breast pocket. Although the tape, teeth and slider are all in excellent condition, the slider won't currently engage the teeth. The jacket has a burgundy lining. This jacket, though a few seasons old, is very close to McCoy's current "Steinbeck" model, which retails for 194,000 yen, roughly equivalent to $1600 USD.
Chest (pit to pit): 20" (doubled = 40")
