I need the jacket pictured below in a 44” or 46” maybe even a 42”. I had a 44”. It was perfect. Had a black mouton collar. You know my history. If you have one and no longer need or want, I both need and want.

Good choice and good luck, Man! Leather is the real deal and don't fool yourself with all the denim jackets which you will sooner or later sell for leather jackets anyway

I'm just kidding and I also like your denim jackets! I hope you will find a Cal CHP in a good condition soon!

I have one, but I extend the sleeve length from to 27-28 but you roll them. It a 44, with 20 sh, 25 P2P, 25 bl. One sleeve starts to unsew.

The jacket is nice, but its 23'' sleeves are way too short. It might fit to any female or to any chunky man possibly, but it's not for such tall man like Ton.

Well I’m not tall at 5’11” but yeah 23” sleeves are about 4” too short. Beautiful jacket though. Rare to even see a 44” Taubers. I know this isn’t going to be a quick acquisition. My new motto is slow and steady. It’s a nice change of pace from my usual knee jerk buy anything routine. LOL.

I knew it would not fit, just showing a different and very viable option in the style.

Snipe on eBay. I got one that fits spot on for $100. I still chuckle at that. It was my Julius Caesar moment. Veni vidi vici.
