Hi all, offering up a nice early 1980's vintage Branded Garments Inc steerhide jacket. Bought new at Jerry's Leathers in Denver by me, original owner. Well cared for, nice patina, no excessive wear, tears holes or other issues that I can see, does have a nice honest distressed look from actual use. Includes original zip in liner which is also super clean. Measurements: P to P 23" Shoulders 20.5" Sleeve 26.5" Back length to base of collar 26.5" See additional pics for details. I wear a 44T and this fits true to size. $350 plus shipping.
You don't need the gym if you wear this! As I recall it comes in at almost 9 pounds, a true bikers jacket. With your wealth of experience I appreciate the confirmation, these really are a dynamite jacket.
I now own the one Monitor originally sold here, and can attest that the quality is absolutely superb. Its like a piece of equipment, and it transcends mere fashion.
I used to visit Peter's shop in Queens (ex-Branded, currently just Orchard), they make some heavy stuff, really heavy. Their old label products are very good.

This jacket shows good honest wear and aging, no roadrash or damage, all original zippers, lining, pockets and zip in cold weather liner all nice and original to the jacket. This jacket is quite well travelled, always cared for and was bought new by me.
