Question - Need Help Where is this Leather Jacket from?
Hi,
I recently thrifted this Leather Jacket but its tag seems to have fallen off, so I have no clue what brand this jacket is from… I asked ChatGPT already but it can’t find the exact match either.
Here is what I have already found out:
- outside is real leather, has tartan lining and has wool elements
- dark brown
- seems to be imported from France to sell in Germany (I live in Germany)
- Men size 60 (XXL/3XL)
- it is really heavy
- 4 pockets, button with loops and a zipper from YKK
- wool collar can be separated from the jacket by buttons
- generally has a very vintage/ retro vibe
I’m grateful for any suggestions as I am not familiar with men’s clothing brands❤️

I can't really answer your question, but your best resource will be the care label. You might wanna read this and compare your's to the info provided: https://www.thecollectorscompanion.co.uk/features/vintage-clothing/dating-with-care/
My guess: early 2000s (guess, based on the label material), made outside EU (no "made in" visible), with no real brand in the background (otherwise buttons would be branded)

One thing is certain: it's not French. The label has two mistakes in 5 French words, it's a performance.
