Vintage jackets in NYC

[Jewish Wolfwood]

Hey, I'm a little clueless as to the best places to shop in New York. I'm going into the city with my girlfriend for Restaurant Week, and I want to end up either in SoHo or the Village. I want a bomber jacket, a good old fur-lined or shearling leather bomber jacket. Where should I go to look? Should I concentrate my search in SoHo or the Village, or balance time between both? Any recommended stores? Any idea if I can even get one on a >$200 budget?

Any and all help, advice, and tips are much appreciated. Thanks!

ebay. i'm not trying to be a smartass but seriously vintage anything here (nyc) is a highpriced joke. i see shit you can score at any thriftstore in the midwest (for example a wool button down pendleton shirt usually will run $40-75) at vintage stores for way expensive. in ny i buy stuff new and save the vintage hunt for when i go back home to michigan. if you're looking for nice vintage stuff in NY and want to spend some serious cash i recommend RRL or What Goes Around Comes Around.

It's really not worth it, huh...

By "serious cash" are we talking more than two hundred bucks?

if you are thinking of spending upwards to 200 dollars on actual vintage jackets, thats kinda crazy

go ebay, its just as easy
