Yep my first one is domestic usa hence the made in USA label the second one was marketed under toys in Japan, first I'm keeping, second I'll sell it on one of my sites here

 

[Spitfireace]

Good idea Jonny. Keep the USA domestic.

As I said, quality jacket, good fit. Nice materials, nice goatskin. Not really pleased with the liner in mine. Its like a bedsheet type of cotton. Not heavy enough. All else is good. Real wool knits.

That's the one I bought the nos zipper for, weird you said about the liner, mines like a satin rayon type

I mean back in the day ,they didn't have the internet for maybe finding better materials? They worked with what they could get at the time.

Yep I think they were definitely sold in malls in Japan and now of course, Japan is American clothing crazy, plus they market their own jackets, I think this was before toys corporation made their own stuff

Oh yes, pre Internet, work with what's local or on hand
