Deerskin La Brea sz38

If the seller was in Europe I would consider buying this one or the Black Sunset. Not going to happen being in the US.

@dudewuttheheck check this seller out! Sunset in Black deerskin in 38 could be your thing.

Probably more of a "What is this?" than a deal, as it needs a main zip replacement. I would have guessed a Beau Breed, but the label throws me. Anybody know? SIze 42; $80 + shipping.

Couldn't be a Schott, could it?

This one is #1 on my wishlist

I really like this one too. It's been listed for a while now. Good for you @Marc mndt that its in Europe (Spain as I recall??). For me, the zipper repair issues combined with the asking price plus shipping to the States have cooled my interest in this particular jacket but I'd love to find another like it closer to me and perhaps in better condition on the zippers.

The jackets in the States, from what I am learning from our European brothers are exorbitantly taxed in addition to the high shipping rates and the jackets in Europe seem to be priced higher than in the US (perhaps the exchange rate affects this) and also generally have high shipping rates should a buyer in the States be interested. Sadly, these continue to be barriers to international purchasing.

I especially think the Euro rules are terribly draconian. I understand and respect that European countries provide a lot for their citizens with these various tax funds they receive but its still a hard pill to swallow and a real kick in the nuts to see these other members get SCREWED. Its to the point people just DON'T BUY JACKETS anymore. Was THAT the goal of the taxation and allowance of 3rd party shipping companies to screw people????!!!! If so, Mission Accomplished!! And BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not a fan.

It's indeed a plus that this one is listed in Europe, but unfortunately it's too big for me :(

I was looking for an inexpensive belt to wear with jeans. Found this fellow in Missouri who makes these. Made up they run in the $25-$35 range, or custom for about $50....with free shipping. This leather is THICK, single piece of veg tanned Hermann Oak leather http://www.hermannoakleather.com/

It won't win any beauty contests, but it's one heck of a deal and a nice way to support a small business if you are looking for a durable belt at low cost.

Great leather and belt itself, Hermann Oak harness leather is absolute tops, but the $1.99 buckle he uses is horrible. If I were not making my own belts, I'd send the dude a nice buckle and ask him to use that. You'd have a winner for an extremely good price. Edit - I just read his listing and he can put any buckle you want on it.
