Very nice! I would be very pleased to find one like that. The zipper doesn’t look too old but I could only guess on the age. Hopefully someone has some knowledge to share.

nice!!!

Really nice jacket, would like one like that myself. Not sure on the age, but unlikely to be terribly old.

Email Johnson, good luck with the sale.

Just found out from the amazing Johnson leathers crew that this M-200 was made around the early 2000 and was a custom made (No handwarmers) and it’s made from American bison ✌Picked it up for £70 and it’s definitely staying in my collection.

 

[Infanteer90]

Bison? Cool! That explains the fantastic texture I suppose. Now I like it even more...

 

[R.D.L.]

Yeah amazing texture and incredibly heavy. I sent over a few photos and was told it’s Aniline dyed America Bison ✌

I think Johnson has only been around since the 1970s. I'm in the San Francisco Bay area. They are well regarded jackets. A step up from the other SF leather company... Golden Bear.

I have an M Jean jacket from Johnson that I got at a thrift store. They certainly make good stuff!

Nice! Buffalo wears really well.

I just bought the same jacket in black, but with the hand warmers, and a mandarin collar.

Nice one would love to see some photos. Did you buy the jacket straight off the rack at Johnson’s?

 

[Stmike]

I didn't buy it new, I got it from another member at TFL. It's also a custom, as the back was extended an inch or two to cover better when riding. It should be here in a couple of days.

That is a sweet jacket! Love the lower back
