It's hard to find the original 1930s half-belt, cossack style wool work jackets in larger sizes, in wearable condition, and for reasonable money. And while many reproductions are made of leather jackets of this design, the wool models are harder to come by. For those of you who have been looking, you need look no further!

This is all I have for this style at the moment, unfortunately.
The black one is tagged a Medium, which you would expect to fit a 40, but which measures larger.

These are absolutely awesome. If only the fit wasn't so weird I'd be all over them, maybe even both. :O

The fits not weird at all, just the letter on the size tag (which is a pretty typical thing). Go by the measurements and you're set.

Pretty good looking. All of them seem a little too big for me otherwise I might be tempted.

Those short wool jackets remind me of 1930s library of congress pics from the FSA photographers
