Due to my attempted 1-in-1-out policy it’s time to let this one go.

A curious Als this. It’s probably a slim 40 in modern terms, but the body is long for one of these—60 may seem short on paper but due to the lack of duck tail and the front drop, the jacket fits longer than a classical Cal/Als. Given that for many, the short length on these is a dealbreaker, this may be just right for someone?

Really nice thick, supple cowhide. I’ve only ever had one Cal/Al with more substantial leather than this! In good condition but there are more than a few pinholes in the lapels and the leather appears slightly chewed near the zip on the female side—see detail pictures.

Given these minor issues how does £175 plus postage sound?

Here’s the measurements. It’s a bit hard due to thickness so some are a range:

In/cm

Chest: 23/58.5
Shoulders: 18.5-19/47-48
Waist (unlaced): 18.5-19/47-48
Length: 24/61 back 25.5/64.5 front
Sleeves: 23.75/60

I am interested in this. I believe you and I are the same size - 23 inch chest seems quite big. What's it like on you?
Like this. This is with the side laces mostly let out—bear in mind this design narrows quite sharply below the pits. I am 5’7”-8” and usually take 36-38 and I think it would suit someone slightly taller than me who takes 38-40 but it depends on your preferences.

Thanks Tobi. Definitely not my fit.
Cool jacket though, great price (as always!)
