Peak Lapel Tweed
This 1930s or early 1940s tweed jacket is an unusual blue color, and has fantastic green swirled buttons. Peak lapels are always a good decision.
Orange 1950s jacket
This linen jacket dates from the late ’50s or early 1960s. It’s Canadian made, and LOUD. Early Don Cherry?
Frock Coat
This frock coat seems to be dated October, 1876. It was made in Kalamazoo, Michigan for G.J. Bosch. The black fabric has faded green over the years. There are tons of period repairs, and clumsily replaced buttons. My guess would be that it was used as a theatrical or costume piece at some point.
The Orioles and The Heritage
Looks like I grew up in this stuff. I remember getting this beat up vintage leather jacket at a yard sale back when I was about 5 and wearing it every day until I grew out of it. There’s nothing quite like a good, broken in leather jacket.
Groshire Peak Lapel jacket
Psychadelic striped electric blue lining. I’m a sucker for peak lapels.
Sleeved Waistcoat
A vest with sleeves. Belted back. Mess jacket? Porter?
Lee 91-J Jelt Denim work jacket
Four pocket Lee Jelt Denim jacket.
1960s belt back
The late ’60s or early ’70s channeling a 1930s belt back jacket. Conservative on the outside, wild on the inside. What a lining.
Motorcycle Jacket
This is just another ’80s asian made mall motorcycle jacket, but I think it’s nicely detailed and passable. I got it mainly for the big D-pocket, and for the overall simplicity of the design. I like earlier motorcycle jackets- nicely detailed, but still clean. Newer ones, with the huge zippers, the epaulettes, the longer length, the belts, the silver hardware- they’re just a bit to fetish for my tastes. So no- this isn’t my ideal black leather jacket, but it’s a step in the right direction.
