Ended up buying a belstaff leather jacket on impulse at the last second of the auction because i really liked the design but now I'm not so sure if it's real. I've been trying to find other jackets but i can't seem to find what this one is actually called.
I've seen on ebay a couple of ones that are labeled as 1970s vintage with similar style but still can't be sure.

Can you guys help me out here to see if what I purchased could be real?

Leather actually feels pretty thick and durable. Taking a look at other belstaff jackets, i'm growing more weary of my purchase because there are just some things this jacket doesn't have compared to new or vintage ones. it's very minimal on the tags and logo stuff. it's especially making me doubt i have a real one because of the small logo shoulder tag (it doesn't have the middle part like it usually does)

If it's fake, i'm an idiot and it's a lesson learned... i'll just try to return it if possible and be more patient on the next one I'd like to get.
