Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition

Messages

After the vague sizes given to me by the seller, and despite images/explanations of how to take a pit to pit measurements, the seller of the jacket is not being truthful about the measurements of the jacket. I think he is being this way because his jacket is smaller than what he advertised. I asked him straight out about the pit to pit and he keeps on stating the jacket is a 22 to 23.

Not cool.

The Louis Cal is 23”. I have a photo. Possible large taper too.

I can proxy for you if you are really interested in it. This is a nice keeper. This label was made for the law enforcement community. That shop was full of top-of-the-line goodies.
Hi, it's nice of you thanks. The jacket sold by the way, it was looking brand new and thick, but would have been slighttly big on me. I am lucky I already have an old straight zip CAL with thick leather and a nice grain. I can't stop looking for another one. And another one...

I bought it cause I'm clearly an idiot and a gambler. Bless refund policy - you might see this one back up here or on eBay soon. I'll post real measurements if it doesn't fit

Edit - Also if it ain’t fit then I’d obviously sell it here for what I paid for it, if anyone is interested. Gracias
I think after all I have written on this jacket, it turns out to be a positive purchase. I think the seller was just a little unmotivated to sell. Frankly, when I get the same cut-and-dry responses from sellers, experience has taught me to be more cautious with purchases. Truly, I hope that the jacket fits you!

Thanks, I'll keep expectations low for this one. If it fits, that will be great. If not, I'll post some actual pictures and measurements for anyone interested. Otherwise it'll be sent back. I too very much dislike it when sellers make it clear that they don't care much about providing information about their products.
