Featured cool leather jacket

hi guys

anyone know what decade this jacket is from

never seen one like this before, sort of safari jacket meets bondage ( a reason in itself to buy !)

big collar, so 70s ?

local charity shop had a £1 sale, and gets rid of all the stuff that im usually looking for in the firstplace

i got 2 pairs of vintage brogues, 1 churchs and a trickers, man do i love a vintage brogue. shoes done for the year

any thoughts appreciated

 

A bit of a puzzlement. But... yeah... supposed it could be 1970s from the collar and logo font. Narrow shoulders, lean cut? Any other tags?

hi deb, yeah never seen one like it before, its got a sort of inbetween style look

heres the other tag

 

What's on the other side of the fabric content tag?

Can't find a trademark for Adriano in either the U.S. or U.K. Hum...

Thought perhaps but couldn't find any evidence, an early logo for instance.

pelletteria adriano firenze. Italia, capisce.
from the style 70s.

 

That's not their logo.

Maybe it is a knock-off of a "real" vintage Adriano jacket?
I really like it and think it will be one heck of a bidding war!
Please let me know if you list it on an auction site, I want to watch it!

 

The presence of five Ginetex/ASTM garment care symbols, and their order, indicates post-1985 and pre-2004.
Very cool jacket!

 

Helpful information. And perhaps someone can give you the correct terminology for the sleeve, the jacket's key detail (and one which takes its design into punk territory.) I'd call it "ruffled" but there may be a better term.

From a Russian website:

It's modern, in a punk 70s style. The care label is still in use in Europe and the other clue is the multiple languages. And the clincher is that I've seen Adriano in Turkish leather shops! I think I may even have seen that style. Helluva bargain.

 

Schott, Brooks, Buco, Aero, Hercules are the standouts for leather jackets that are not couture.
I have done well with Wilson, and LL Bean. Had a really nice Harley Davidson last year that I paid $30 for, and it took four months to get $130 for it.

Vintage leathers like Buco, and Hercules can bring bucks.

It all depends what the OP is doing with it. For a pound it's a nice find, bu a tough flip.......unless for 2 pounds

 

Adriano jackets are about £200 in Turkey, the leather is lovely. I'd wear it.

All kinds of Leather Jackets are $200 new. Does not translate to the secondary market.
I can walk into any store and see all kinds of clothes like shorts, and pants that sell for $70, $90, that won't sell for anywhere near that in the resell market.
Again, the OP got it for a little over a buck. BOL.

 

Markets vary. Given the style and quality, you'd get £30 at least here for that.

 

yeah absolutely obb, it photographed really well so thats a good thing as well

seems such a strange design for a company like this, youd expect them to sell the more classic types
