What the heck Schott model is this? No epaulettes, etc. View attachment 534542 View attachment 534544
Not sure of the exact model of this one but it looks like a cheaper version of the JD1.

The nails underneath the collar are groovy !
I think this is a Brimaco or British Manufacturing Company’s feature. This company was based in Montreal, Canada so I don’t think it’s a US-made thing.What us made leather jacket does the snap across the rear zips like this? View attachment 535181
But those are Talon zips...I think this is a Brimaco or British Manufacturing Company’s feature. This company was based in Montreal, Canada so I don’t think it’s a US-made thing.
Could be a replacement zip, no? Brimaco usually used their Lightning zip. But you never know. Have you asked the seller?But those are Talon zips...
There's at least one Montgomery Ward model with similar feature as shown in this threadWhat us made leather jacket does the snap across the rear zips like this? View attachment 535181
You're right! Thanks, I knew I'd seen that feature somewhere here! This jacket has to be more recent as it has a zip-out lining, hence the mystery on make....There's at least one Montgomery Ward model with similar feature as shown in this thread

Contact Buyee until you get high enough in their company they give you a definitive answer.I ordered a jacket from Japan via Buyee. Was hopeful that the listed value would be under 800 USD as a promotional discount took me under that amount, but it was declared at the original value. Arrived in Alaska and customs asked for additional documentation via the FedEx page. Buyee then confirmed that they went ahead and submitted the paperwok and it was confirmed as received by FedEx.
Tracking info hasn't moved or updated in six business days. FedEx hasn't been able to provide definitive answers, and it seems near impossible to asks U.S. Customs questions. Is this just a 'hurry up and wait' situation? I've read stories of much longer waiting times, but I wanted to know if anyone has any tips or suggestions who also experienced delays.
I just talked to someone who went through a whole 7 month process to get their Aero jacket through Thurston Bros. Actual wait time with the finished order wasn't that full time, but it does seem that Aero is just taking longer than before, which is true of many makers in fairness.Does anyone know if Aero has longer production times during the summer? During the last sale in October, it only took a few days from 'production' to 'order complete', but now it's been weeks.
