Vintage Outerwear: Threads of the Past

Endgame jacket in the vintage game.

Why it’s end game? What is so special about this label? I see too vintage collectors go crazy about this label a lot

Just received a beautiful wool gabardine half-belt in the mail, likely from the 1940s (according to the seller). I'm not an expert, but it looks similar to some Pendletons I've seen.
It needs a few small repairs to the lining and one hole on the shoulder, but overall in pretty mint condition. Really looking forward to wearing it this spring

The particular jacket might not be end game, but if you search “Ralphs Pugh” you will find a thread of this maker. Here’s a couple of quick examples of what they produced.
