Tony; It was the Michael Clothing Company in Bolton.
My first short leather was an Antique Green colour. I think they were about £10.
I remember my elder brother and his mates getting leather *Budgie jackets made there.


*Budgie 1 9 7 1 - 1 9 7 2 (UK)
26 episodes had Adam Faith in the title role, as Ronald 'Budgie' Bird.

The warehouse is still there and they still do made to measure. Michael's Leathers, 232 Waterloo Street BL1 8HU.
Last time I went was around 6 years ago. They had some cracking quality American style Baseball & flying jackets in for around £150.
