    Californian 1940’s cross zip half belt sz 40

    Thanks guys! We’re safe. We actually live just about 5 miles east of all the mess pictured, and usually storms hit the mountains and split up bounce around and lose a lot of force. All of our electric/utilities come through there though, so we are last on list of getting service repaired. The...

    Californian 1940’s cross zip half belt sz 40

    Understand. If it were in my range(44) it would be a keeper and I would be selling one of the others… these guys in the 38-40 range don’t know how lucky they are! ;)

    Californian 1940’s cross zip half belt sz 40

    California Sportswear cross zip half belt in a solid sz 40. Made a new quilted liner from scratch using the correct original acetate material. Also completely refined all of the pockets as they tend to be dirty/nasty after 80 yrs.. really solid jacket! Would date it to mid/late 40’s by the Talon...

    Unknown maker vintage jacket for sale

    Not sure what this one is, label was missing. This has to be one of the oddest constructed jackets I’ve had in here in recent memory. I think much has to do with how thick the leather is. It’s heavy duty, probably 3.5-4 oz, or “lost worlds thick” for those familiar with that brand. Even the...

    Steerhide coat/jacket sz 44/46

    Made this one a few yrs ago testing out some materials/procedures. It’s very soft, top grain steer, 2.5-3oz weight. Liner is a vintage cotton backed with a layer of polartec fleece. It’s a very warm jacket with the fleece backed lining. I would put it in the same range as my B-2. I think in all...

    40’s horsehide Admiral halfbelt sz 40

    Bought this one to make a pattern off of. Has been completely restitched, new liner & pocket insets. Hide is pretty beat up & well worn, but would be ok for an occasional wearer. Some of the questionable spots were reinforced while apart with some cotton material. Asking $125 plus the shipping...

    USN Werber 7823(aer) G-1

    Werber 7823(aer) G-1. Tagged size 46, but fits more like a 42. This one was reconfigured at some time, assuming by the navy as I have seen two others done in an identical manner with new liner, cotton stamped size tag in place of spec tag & with the same blackened brass pull on nickel Waldes...

Brand new, never worn. Hide is black goat, liner is plaid flannel with cotton twill for the sleeves. Buttons are...
