Johnson Leathers Custom Coat, Jacket
Made in San Francisco, USA
Fits like a 42 long
$195 shipped CONUS (or best offer!)
This custom leather coat uses what I believe to be a 4.5 oz cowhide shell in an unusual gunmetal gray-blue. The jacket is in excellent condition inside and out. It features two outside breast pockets with snap closures and two handwarmer pockets. The jacket also has four interior pockets (two vertical 'pistol' pockets and two horizontal map pockets).
I would describe the hue as a gunmetal blue, very close to the paint job on the 1927 Model T pictured below. It's a unique color for leather, yet very wearable and not in least eccentric, even by own fairly conservative standards in terms of jackets. I rolled the dice on this jacket second hand because I liked the color (not one I've ever seen on leather) and it was better than I expected. The leather has a lovely, substantial hand and a ton of depth, grain, and luster. I think most of that comes through in the pics. There was rain the day I took the photos so the long distance shots are a little washed out - that's the poor lighting conditions, not flaws in the jacket.
I love the jacket, but it fits like a 42 long and would look best in my opinion on someone 5'11 or taller. (I'm a straight up size 40 and 5'9).
Measurements given in inches and taken with jacket front fastened and the jacket laid flat...
Chest - 23 1/2"
Shoulder - 20"
Sleeve (shoulder to end of cuff) - 25 1/2"
Front length - 31 1/4"
Back length- 30 1/2"
PM me if you have any questions.
