New (to me) Buco PJ-27

[lina]

This little beauty just arrived today from an illustrious fellow member of the lounge. I've always liked the PJ27, which has the shape and some of the features of a classic D pocket, but is lighter on the zips. But this is the first one I've handled in person.

This one is probably just a bit bigger on me than it is intended to be, through the torso, but probably I can live with that. Has some real brown wear showing through, but all told the leather is strong enough, and the lining is in very good condition indeed.

Fantastic looking jacket. I think overall the size is fine. Great find!

I think it looks fine. Now get on your Bike and take it for a ride.

I treat Vintage Jackets with a bit more care than a new one. They are old like me.

keep an eye and hand on the right upper shoulder area. I mention and show that in the Video. Occasionally dab that with some Vaseline. Think of it as a Sunburn and just keep it fresh. Don't lather up the rest of this jacket unless you detect some dryness. Then only do those areas that you feel need attention.

The Best treatment for a vintage leather jacket is to wear it. They need to be exercised.

Positively Perfect!!! Really a beautiful piece, and since it obviously came via T Mitchell, I know that you got something authentic and great. Enjoy and wear in good health...

Yeh, outstanding find. What a great jacket. Fit is just right, don't worry!

If I was living back in the day I can't say that being pulled over by an officer wearing one of those things would be that bad of an experience. nice one!

Congrats

Absolutely Stunning! Love the look of that leather- just right! Nailing a modern fit is always the most difficult part with vintage leather jackets...

Wow that has some character! Looks great. Nice buy.

Superb jacket and excellent fit!
However, I think it would fit me better, haha.

 

[Mysteryo]

I'm jealous! ;-)

I'm going to keep this Ralph Edwards. Not Buco quality, but serviceable. Always good to have a replacement.

Yes, absolutely stunning. I only dream of my two Langlitz columbias getting such a patina. They are goatskin and as far as I know that leather hardly ever gets patina even over a lot of hard wearing and long time.
