Got this jacket listen on eBay, didn't feel anyone here'd be interested but oddly so, number of people who say it there, reached out here thru TFL about it so I figure I'd make a FS thread as well. It's a good jacket.
$160 all in, shipped worldwide. PP/FF.
Just your standard black cafe racer leather jacket. The tag is too worn out so I can't tell the maker but they obviously knocked-off Schott 141/641 design, which isn't a bad thing at all since the jacket is of a very good quality. Think Branded/Natal/Kerr/WD/etc. grade piece.
Somewhat tougher and heavier than the original, the jacket is made from a classic 90's era, heavy naked cowhide. You've got three shell & one lining pockets to store your stuff. Warmly lined in sponge-padded quilted lining. Grommet vented underarm footballs. Double nickle plated side buckles... So on and so forth.
It is a good, comfortable, sturdy & warm motorcycle jacket.
All good with it except for the broken tip of the zipper pull tab. Zipper works perfectly plus I've made a leather strap for it so you've no worries. No issues, otherwise.
Fits like a regular, boxy-ish 42. The sleeves seem short but the shoulders are wide so they're sufficiently long - They actually have a better reach than Schott's 25" sleeves. You can see how it fits me and I need 26" sleeves. Measurements are as follows...
