Looks like a good deal to me, but it's not made by Taylor's - it is an import by the same maker of their imported jackets. I'd call them and talk to customer service - they have always been very helpful and straightforward about the sale jackets I've been interested in.

Looked at that. It's "Imported" so not the genuine Taylor's US-made article. Might be just fine...

I got nothing special to do, today. Just a drive to the main-railstation in another town, to collect somebody. So, the black Gabardine-winterraincoatjacket, today.

Another dad hand me down. I get the jacket. He gets the plane. It's three sizes too big and I love it. Waterproof af. The Chinese made Alphas are great utilitarian jackets!

A two jacket day. So far.

I think this is some Wilson product probably.

But this is the one I'm wondering about. No labels at all.

Anyone care to venture a guess as to what this one is?

by the numerous smaller panels, to me it indicates a smaller animal? perhaps sheep or goat?

I guess that makes sense. It's a fairly substantial feeling leather. I just picked it up today and I'm still trying to figure it out. There is no evidence of it ever having a label so I am wondering if it has been relined in the past. The current lining is showing moderate wear and there have been stitching repairs to both it's attachment and to the leather stitching. The leather itself is in really good shape. I rather like the look of it overall, if the sleeves are a bit short.

Thanks,
Michael

I'd say it's a goathide.

1961 Skyline MA-1 but was a little too cold for it, my Alpha N-2B would have been the better choice today I think.

Grais Angel Skin Cabretta, I'm guessing from the 80s.

It was a toss up between the Skyline MA-1 and the Eastman B-10, the Skyline won.

My new (2nd hand but near mint) Buzz Ricksons L2a - sadly the previous owner has replaced the Crown with a modern plastic Opti zipper. I intend to sort this with a modern #5 track and a wartime Crown size 5 puller I got from eBay. Fortunately the Talon on the sleeve is still present.

Something wrong with my photobucket sometimes the link diverts to an ad- advice welcome
