That's Rock and Roll, not sure if they still put a large size zipper on the sleeves.

Sometime ago, In the LW webpage, I saw a jacket with #10 crowns on the sleeves. At this, I tough it was overkill, now, I do not know, honestly. I am thinking of doing the upgrade.

Here is a sample of military and none military comparison of crown and talon.
The mili talon show little damage at the bottom end due to span location. Great idea and application. Will not affect installation.

My Vanson hardcore highwayman has the #10 zippers on top of the sleeves. I do think it is a bit of an overkill on the sleeves. I am thinking it is more for aesthetic reasons.

Looks like you have some great looking zippers in your possession. Plus with the sentimental value, you really can't go wrong. I hope to see this jacket when it is done.

This image is for reference of what I have used for some of my x zip jackets.
I will be using the dark green conmar or the super heavy duty talon to do a repair on a highwayman.

Which one would you use? I welcome your impute.

Are there photos of the jackets discussed in the first post of this thread? It's from 2018...
