FS: Iconic Vintage 40s/50s Montgomery/Windward Horsehide Jacket
(fits size 38-40)


Offered for sale is my Vintage Windward made of brown Horsehide with black silk lining:

Size 38-40.
Measurements (approx.):
pit to pit: 21.75 in / 55.245 cm
shoulders: 18 in / 45.72 cm
back length: 23.5 in / 59.69 cm
waist: 18 in- 19.5 in / 45.72 cm- 48.26 cm
sleeves: 24 in / 60.96 cm (straight line)
25 in / 63.5 cm (along curve)

Features the most awesome patina. I have not conditioned it, but I can if the buyer requests. It has been re-lined with black silk, and it feels great! There are a couple of vintage repairs (see photos) which just add to the rugged coolness. Snaps are present if you want to add a fuzzy collar. Crown main zipper, shoulder gussets, and gathered waistband sides make this a classic sit-on-the-hips jacket.

I feel this jacket would best fit someone 5’10 or a bit shorter, but tastes vary.

Here is a gallery with lots of photos and pictures with the tape measure:

Please ask any questions by PM or "Start a conversation". Title it Windward.

SOLD

I'm happy to send it internationally at cost.
Venmo or Paypal accepted as "Gift."

Thanks for looking!

@dudewuttheheck your first foray should have been that Sportclad “d” pocket/MC jacket out of Canada that sold about a week ago. You love Shinki, you will love that hide. You appreciate great stitching and well-thought out details. Check, and check. Good luck. If you pick the right one first, you will be hooked.
Yeahci just need to be more diligent about checking the classifieds here
