Off topic Leather Jacket Question

Post by Michigan Smith »

Has anyone seen or know of a source for a GOOD leather Levi trucker style jacket. Preferable a maker who offers true sizes (40-42-44) and not generic (S-M-L-XL).

Hey, that is one cool-looking jacket! The price had me staggered, but this one is similar for $159.95 - true sizes too.

Well, the price is actually pretty comparable to others made from 'naked' cowhide. That's actually the belly hide of the cow, and about the only source is France. The Wings VIP is made from naked cowhide, and usually runs around $300 or more due to it's material. Regards. Michaelson
