Sourcing Leather Jackets

Where you source affects your margins as much as where you sell. Op shops regularly get donated leather jackets. most staff can't tell real from faux, so they price them the same. Check the lining, smell, and edge of the leather to verify. Vintage biker jackets (Brando style) and oversized 80s blazer-style jackets are both in demand. Sheepskin and shearling jackets are undervalued at op shops.

Show the leather texture, hardware, lining, and any maker labels. Photograph zippers functioning. Show patina and wear as features, not flaws. vintage leather buyers want character. Include measurements as leather doesn't stretch like fabric. Good photos are the difference between a scroll-past and a sale, regardless of platform.

Pricing Leather Jackets

Real leather jackets from quality makers sell for $80-300+ depending on brand and style. Schott, Vanson, and Aero are the premium names. Australian brands like R.M. Williams leather jackets have a local market. Faux leather caps at $20-40 regardless of brand. Always check sold listings on each platform before setting your price. The same item can sell for different amounts on different platforms because buyer expectations vary.

Factor in platform fees when comparing prices. A $100 sale on a platform charging 10% leaves you with a different take-home than a $95 sale on a platform charging 9%. Run the numbers before deciding where to list first.
