Not a Cal Leathers. California Sportswear is the maker. Really nice. Worth? Depends on many factors but I would say the full asking price ($375) is more than fair, even low.

You sure about sizing? Nothing posted except small. Lol

Edit:: S2S- 18” ; P2P- 20” ; sleeve- 24”
What decade do you estimate it is from?

I'm seriously thinking of having the elastic removed and the leather trimmed. Quite a simple adjustment.

California Sportswear no doubt. I own 2 like it with no collar. These jackets are horsehide from the early to mid 1950s. $375 is a steal. Send me the link if you don't want it.

This one is near mint. The finest horsehide

I ended up getting it. Thanks for the info. Definitely looking forward to it.

This is one of the two I have seen with the original detachable collar. I've never owned one with a collar, so I am quite envious.

I own many CSC jackets, MC and sports, they are equal in quality to any brand I have owned and more often better.

They are classic 40/50s fit. Square shoulders and short to the point.

Check out this thread.

Look forward to seeing/hearing about your new jacket.
