Mine had a fancy tag, his had a coffee stain, and honestly his fit better. Does anyone know if these resellers are just buying the same racks and doubling the price, or am I missing something?
My uncle bought a leather jacket at a Sears in 1987 for like 80 bucks and that thing outlasted three trucks he owned. Half the "vintage" stuff people chase now was just regular gear back then that nobody thought twice about. The old tag makes it feel special, but leather is leather, and a coffee stain just means somebody actually wore it.
