BACK IN BLACK: VINTAGE LEATHER JACKETS
The black leather jacket has always been the uniform of the bad, the rebellious and the outsider. The Hells Angels, the Black Panthers, punks, goths, metalheads, gay bar cruisers, and many of rock and roll's non-conformist icons all brandished, at one time or another, the black leather jacket. Whether for protective or fashionable reasons, the effect is as menacing as it is stylish.

Blackbird Vintage - Vintage 70's 'Bolme' Bomber Jacket
in black
DETAILS: This jacket is an 'Bolme' brand black leather jacket that was made in the U.S.A. It is approximately from the mid to late 70's or early 80's. It is marked a size M and has a polyester faux-fur collar and lining and banded 'bomber' style waistband and cuffs. The zipper brand is YKK and all zippers work perfectly. It has a couple custom repairs that have been fixed with safety pins (see picture for right pocket repair). The bottom front is more 'worn' that the rest of the jacket (we think this makes it look particulary rad).
