        Had one of my best scores in a really long time this morning!  Royal Tweed by Church's chukka boots in ridiculously good condition for $12!!!!!!!  I found them in the thrift store today and actually let out a "HA! YES!!"  and everyone around me just looked at me like i was insane.

            Found this Vanson Ike Leather Jacket in a thrift store yesterday. Feels kinda short for me but we'll see. Fits great otherwise.

                      The fit is great for me, so like a normal L-XL.

                      I like the Vanson Ike but I might put it up on eBay to fund getting a Vanson City Jacket. I only paid $40 for the Vanson. I don't mind putting stuff up on eBay that I like at higher prices, if someone bites, cool, if not I just keep it.

                            Found some West German Jackboots at an Army Surplus store. Need to be resoled, so we'll see if I hang on to them or not.

                              I don't know the resale for that jacket urb.  You would need the right buyer.        If it was my size I would have taken it.

                                I went ahead and bought it. The lining is in mint condition. I'll put it on ebay for a ridiculous price and wear it in the meantime. It was the most expensive thing in the vintage store in Toronto. The women said that many people commented on that jacket and it was the first time they had seen a Hercules jacket in real life.

                                  Large size Hercules should be easy to sell.

                                  Try Fedora Lounge to sell it…or at least put a note there..

                                      I'm at the GFs house so the pics are shit. I will def get better ones up, just to document this beast.

                                      (tag reads) "Hercules Front Quarter Horsehide"
                                      40s - Half Belt(?) Jacket with Red Quilt lining.
                                      I'm assuming it came with a belt but it's missing.

                                      Also got this other amazing looking jacket

                                      (Tag reads): "California Creations Leather" Made in USA sz44
                                      Got it for $50 in Toronto
                                      Never heard of the name but it's got to be 30+ years old. It's so fucking heavy and tough. Super thick quilt lining. Not like some shitty Wilson Leathers jacket.
