FS: Classic Diagonal Zip Perfecto Styled MC Leather Jacket, 36

Messages

Japanese made Perfecto / Double Rider styled motorcycle leather jacket in a size 36.

150$ + Shipping. PayPal, fam.


INFO
Straight off, I absolutely LOVE this jacket but being a size 36, I have to come to terms that it's simply too small for me. I can wear it & zip it up and all but it just feels too constrictive. High armholes, tight all over, etc.

I was thinking about maybe pulling the stuffing out of the lining as the jacket is heavily insulated but if that doesn't work, all I did was I messed up a perfectly good jacket for no reason.

While clearly a Schott Perfecto knock-off, it's literally two times the quality. Much heavier leather (with none of that crap plastic top coat finish), superior, heavy-ass lining, better material, better made / stitched... Plus over-dye that's gonna fade like a bad dream on a beautiful morning.

Think of it as a 618 on steroids. Makes every one of my original Schott jackets seem like Zara in comparison.

I've been through countless diagonal zip jackets, handled only like 5 that are really good. This is one of them.

I mean, if these guys can do a full steel belt buckle instead of that stamped junk Schott is peddling, what am I paying for major money for?


CONDITION
Some fading around the seams & edges and of course some creases in the sleeves. Mint condition all over. Clean, no odor.


MEASUREMENTS
Size 36 and the numbers are...
  • Chest: 21" / 54 cm
  • Length: 23" / 58 cm
  • Shoulders: 19" / 48 cm
  • Sleeve Length: 24.8" / 63 cm
  • Hem: 19.5" / 49 cm

Can't think of anything else to add. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks!

I've handled this jacket. Made in Japan, built like a tank. $150 is a steal, dirt cheap. I'd say it's worth much more than that.

Yep, it was @Marc mndt who proxied it for me. In all seriousness and this isn't me tryna sell the jacket but it seriously annihilates any 618/613/118/etc. Leather is much thicker and tougher while looking & feeling much more natural and the lining isn't even comparable, how nice it is on this jacket.

Are the images still not showing? I can see them just fine in Incognito mode.

How much does the jacket weigh? Looks like a heavy one!
