Northbound Leather thigh boots snapped up

These Northbound Leather thigh-high boots (size 12) sold for $180.00 using Buy It Now. I've always wanted these boots in my size, but never wanted to pay full price. The leather looks amazingly soft and the boots have nice clean lines with no zippers.

The seller stated that they bought these a few years ago at the Northbound Leather store in Toronto. These should be in even more demand as these boots are not sold on Northbound's website.

Again, I wish the seller had provided more pictures, but Northbound Leather products and quality obviously speaks for itself!

Classic NBL zip-front dress in bright blue

This vintage bright blue dress from North Beach Leather (size M) sold for an impressive $202.50. Although I prefer the plain back as opposed to the belted back, this is still one of my favorite styles of North Beach Leather dresses.

Interesting, as the seller stated that Kirstie Alley wore this same style dress on an episode of "Cheers." Of course, I had to see if I could track down a picture of her in the dress. Unfortunately, I could not.

Classic Leatherwear gloves make a rare appearance

These Classic Leatherwear black leather opera gloves rarely appear on eBay these days, yet two pairs from different sellers appeared together in a short period of time.

This pair was previously worn and described by the seller as a size 6-7. The seller stated that these measured 21" long, although they look longer, and sold for a respectable $152.50. I only wish the seller had provided more pictures...and preferably not clipped to a hanger!



This pair of Classic Leatherwear gloves was a size 9, brand new, and sold for $136.58.

Again, I wish the seller had provided more pictures of these great gloves!

North Beach Leather military style jacket sells well

eBay seller "leatherfashions" sold this vintage cropped military-style North Beach Leather (size M) for a very deserving $206.50. As with all of this seller's items, this jacket appears to be in mint condition and a great addition to a high-end leather apparel collection.

Although I'd prefer a longer version of this jacket, it would look great paired with skinny jeans and strappy leather sandals or sexy knee-high black leather riding boots.

Classic NBL biker-style dress, nicely modeled

The same style of North Beach Leather biker-style dress as in the previous listing, only in classic black, sold for a very impressive $270.00. Very nicely modeled, too, as it fits the owner like a glove!

I especially enjoyed the story behind the dress as told by the seller / owner:
I Lived in Chicago for 20 years in the FASHION industry and loved the Fabulous Clothes Available. I bought this and many others at the NORTH BEACH LEATHER boutique in Water Tower Place on Michigan Avenue. This beautiful Dress was bought in the 1990's for $1095.00 and the was only worn "3" times. in CATWALK condition. The Leather quality and design Style made North Beach a premier Leather Retailer. It is BUTTER SOFT to the touch and has no defects. The Dress has detailed Stitching with Gold Tone Zippers that ALL work, Two front- side curved pockets, One zippered pocket on left chest. Fully lined in matching Black through out. This DRESS is -x-small so please check your MEASUREMENTS with those below. This dress is non-returnable. It is a "unique" an gets Attention but my Husband loved it and we bought it for a NEW YEARS EVE rooftop party. It is very fitted so it does keep you warm. It makes a definite statement about the style of it's owner.

North Beach Leather catalog cover dress

eBay leather seller "leatherfashions" sold this bright kelly green leather motorcycle-style dress (size S) by North Beach Leather for an impressive $239.16. The dress appeared on the cover of a vintage NBL catalog.

This is another dress that looks very different depending on whether it's zipped up or worn open.

Vintage Berman's black leather dress sells well

eBay leather seller "leatherbill" sold this very nice vintage Berman's black leather dress (size 6) for a respectable $152.50. I especially like that it's one of the few leather dresses with a black zipper. I also like that the collar can be worn zipped up high, as in the last two photos.

If this sexy black leather dress had been in my size, I would have put in a good bid!
