Description
Please note: this item resides in Finland but my feedback score is flawless. Shipping to the UK will cost 22 pounds. Outside EU borders, the rates vary greatly - do contact me for a quote before bidding. Any questions at all, please send a message. I aim to serve. Do have a look at my other goodies, I collect classic men's clothing and always have something interesting to sell to make room for more finds. * * * This is the famed leather A-2 flight jacket made by the great Schott factory. None of that China crap here, this is the real deal made in USA to high standards. Thanks to its zipper fleece lining, this will serve year round. The jacket has a light shoulder structure, 2 hip pockets with hand warmer sections and popper tops, short lapels, elastic cuffs inside, metal zipper, epaulettes, elastic waist, detachable fleece lining, grommets under the armpits, a half belt, action back. Everything has been thought through. The size tag says 48, but I beg to differ. This here best fits a size 44 UK chap, have a look at the measurements below. The outer layer is cowhide. While the colour has been rubbed off into a patina partially, the leather itself is in great condition. If need be, I can treat the whole jacket with a coloured leather cream. I'd ask for 25 pounds for this because it would take more than an hour to do. Similar made in USA jackets from Schott retail for over a thousand euros. The first one to bid wins this jacket as I'll close the listing immediately. Exact measurements: shoulder to shoulder 53 cm, shoulder to cuff 64 cm, armpit to pit 63 cm, neck to hem 65 cm.
