1930's Style Wool and Leather Jacket

[flat-top]

I'm feeling a little buyer's remorse, but I could not pass up this great jacket.
It was made by What Goes Around Comes Around. I've always loved the original versions of these, but finding one (or a repro for that matter) in my size has always been impossible or WAY out of my price range. It's black wool with brown sheepskin leather details.
Sorry for the dark pics. The close up shows the true colors.

Nice coat...why the remorse? How much are they going for?

$200.Original price almost $600. I know, not expensive at all, but I haven't really splurged on myself in ages!

Man, how big is it? I'll take it off your hands.

That's a nice jacket. Put it on and let's have a look.

It's a slim fitting XL, so I'd say more like a standard Large.
I'll try to take some pics soon!

Looks like the direct inspiration for this jacket (except a little shorter) is on page 23 of My Freedamn! 5.

Nice jacket! I do prefer the lighter coloring of the original leather... It makes the design stand out more, but nonetheless, still a great find (and a great deal!).

Great jacket! Man, that original is one sweet jacket though! I've been looking for an original one--like in the pictures of the original that you posted--for a long, long time now. It's a tough find in a 44! Cool repo.!!!
