What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

Beautiful jacket. Here's proof that goatskin does acquire patina and more graining over time. I'd place this in the 1940s era, but @tmitchell59 would probably know more.

Fit pics, please!

Here you go, maybe a size to big?? or maybe I’m over thinking things it’s very easy to wear and I do prefer my jackets with a little bit of room, cheers

Thanks, that is the Talon stop that followed the sunrise stop into the early 40s. My most revered collection are goatskin jackets from this era. They were very popular especially in warmer climates. I would guess most were made in California. They are the most interesting designs. Here is a link to some of my Goat Herd.

Thanks Terry, I have always admired your jackets and posts you have a amazing collection.

REALLY nice! Great color, nice graining, perfect fit. Wow! eBay purchase?
Yeah buddy! Insomnia induced late night grab. I’m going to do a thread on it jus because I think it’s pretty darn amazing. Totally unheard of brand. The hide and cut are just really nice though. Collar ***** but it’s a cool piece. Deserves better pics.

Wow!, yes indeed. recall the fit pic you sent me? You look like a different person. You look great, the jacket looks great on you. Gotta have those glasses!

I just realized I may have a very similar jacket, no sewn half-belt, but side adjustments. similar tailored look I'll find the pics.

I’ve had that reaction a few times recently with people I haven’t see for a while they ask if I’m alright as I’ve dropped so much weight - yes love these glasses as well I wear them everywhere

All I did was tell stu my height/weight and body type. I didn't do anything with the length either. I just explained to him how I wanted the jacket to look. Picked cuffs, yoke, special stitching. That's it

Thanks!

It certainly worked incredibly well. What a fine jacket!
