40s Rough Wear
This jacket came in yesterday and I couldn't wait to snap some photos. In terms of leather quality, construction and overall condition it comes out far ahead of any vintage jacket I've handled (admittedly not that many).
Does anybody know why makers stopped making jackets with bi-swing arms?
That's a beauty, I especially like the foldable cuffs. Old Cresco jackets are so cool!Here is my dual action sleeve beauty. Late 40's.

That's a beuty!! RW patented that style of pocket, perhaps the whole jacket, I would have to look at the patent photo.
It's definitely a cool pocket. Didn't they also patent their collar protector?That's a beuty!! RW patented that style of pocket, perhaps the whole jacket, I would have to look at the patent photo.
Solid one, Huey! Wear it in good health.40s Unlabelled Windward

I got this jacket a while ago but hadn't had the chance to take photos until recently. This style of jacket was on my radar because of Marc's fit pics of his jacket and Ton's Regius repro. I like look of it a lot. It's simple but the pockets make it more unique than the typical halfbelt. The graining on this one is also particularly nice in my opinion.
The jacket came with a different lining but smelled pretty musty so I got it changed.
(Special thanks to Hannes who had the jacket before me and gave me some pointers on the condition/seller).
I got this one from Buttersworth Vintage on Etsy!Nice congrats!! Where do you guys all go to find these nice vintages? or am i just blind on the net
