FS: Levi's Classic Cross-zip Buffalo Leather Jacket, size M

Listing this before the jacket grows on me too much, if it already hasn't...

Levi's Perfecto styled, classic cross-zip (or a double rider) leather jacket in a buffalo hide, lined with a Thermore lining.

Okay, so I bought this on a whim and it turned out to be one of the nicer jackets I've had. If I hadn't promised myself to stick to just two or three jackets, I would definitely keep it. Then again, if there won't be any takers, I just might.

First off, the cut of this jacket is just fantastic. Everything is just perfect. Length, sleeves, shape, shoulders... Just right. Fits me better than most jackets by high end makers I've tried on. Not sure how this makes me feel, to be honest. . .

Anyway, the Buffalo hide is pretty lightweight, though not more so than any old Beau Breed, Sears or Brooks. Plus it looks great. Check out the grain & texture. Even hair follicles are visible!

The Thermore lining is crazy, though! Just super warm. I wore it yesterday evening over only a T-shirt in 41F or 5C and was actually hot.

Nice enough, all hardware is Talon. Chain pulls, too.

Another thing that I find amazing about this jacket is how comfortable it is, even though it fits pretty snug. Feels like you're wearing a cotton shirt. No restrictions whatsoever. Feels nice to wear a leather jacket like that for a change. . .

Well, I don't really know what else to add. As you can see, it's basically as new. I wore it for two hours. Or less. I don't think it'd look any newer hanging in a Levi's store.

Sized Medium, that's how it fits. The exact measurements are...
  • Chest width / P2P: 56 cm / 22"
  • Waist width: 50 cm / 19.5"
  • Shoulders width: 50 cm / 19.5"
  • Sleeve length: 67 cm / 26.3"
  • Back length: 61 cm / 24"

That's that. Truckload of photos below. I'm asking for a firm $210 + shipping. PayPal, Friends or Family, please. Shipping from European Union.

Thanks for looking!

@AbbaDatDeHat , @casterfield thank you and it is a great jacket indeed but I've again piled up too many and there are three that I really only want to wear.

Honestly, this Levi's feels 10x nicer to wear than the Natal jacket which I hope to make my only cross zip so I don't even know what I'm doing here.

BTW, check out how perfectly stitched this jacket is. What I've been telling you about the stitching and how meaningless comparing it is.

Forgot to mention, please click on any of the photos for a closer view.

Nice! I had no idea Levi's even made a cross-zip, let alone one in Buffalo.

I've seen a few models of their cross zip though the quality was all over the place. There was this "faded" brown version, seriously impressive. Super heavy hide and the cut wasn't bad. Though this model fits me best and by far, and the leather is really beautiful. Not as heavy but that's cool, too. Really cool jacket.

This awesome jacket is still available. It's on eBay too but you can grab it cheaper here, too.
