So, John is alive. I just received a custom Werber 1939 A-2 from him. For those of you who are curious, I've been on his waiting list since April 2017, when I first started looking at getting a new leather jacket. I ended up ordering an Aero Wayfairer, but John's name was thrown around a lot...

Gentlemen - about three years ago I had a jacket custom made at Johnson Leather in San Francisco. In the window I saw a "Japanese Train Engineer" jacket they were selling and combined its details with their standard M-200 motorcycle model, which offered a slimmer and shorter fit. The result...

I noticed that there is glue in addition to the sewing thread inside the collar, and cuffs, basically everywhere where leather meets leather... Is this normal?

Recently I bought this jacket. It has a label in it. I could find nothing on the internet. The jacket is a long leather trenchcoat with a wool lining. 1930s or 1940s? Does anyone recognize the makers label?

I’m upgrading my personal style and want to acquire a vintage leather jacket. Frankly, I don’t know what I’m doing, which brought me here. Any advice on a starter leather jacket? I’ve done a little research — enough to decide I’d prefer a bomber or similar make over a motorcycle jacket with all...

Hi all, New to the forums although I've visited before. I am selling a Vanson AR3 size 40 with the shoulder and elbow armor. I bought it in September at Filipacchi and wore it on the bike for a few months so it is lightly broken in but very new looking still. It is a great jacket but I have...

Hey guys, I acquired a G-1 on ebay for a killer deal; but was wondering if there was any way to identify the maker? There are no labels other than the Blood Chit sewn into the inner lining. eBay auction said it belonged to a Navy pilot that served from the late 80s to early 00s. I know for...
