Canadian Leather Jerkin
It is a nice Leather Jerkin, but it is not Canadian manufacture.
|
History lesson....
Thanks Ed for your comment. I am no expert in this field, so could you tell me how you can tell the difference between Canadian and non Canadian "jerkins".
Cheers....Robert |
Canadian made ones had black wool linings in them. The leather also tended to be a darker chocolate brown colour. The British ones had a khaki green wool liner and were thinner.
There is currently one up for sale on Facebook in a group page that is Canadian made. |
Cheers!
:cheers:Many thanks Jordan. Learned something new today. Robert
|
Thanks for the replies. The British manufactured jerkin is located in Breda. I live ten miles away from Breda so too bad it isn't a Canadian one.
@Jordan, is the seller in the Facebook group connected with you as I don't have Facebook? |
Leather Jerkins
The Canadians used British manufactured leather Jerkins just as much, perhaps even more, then Canadian made ones.
|
