WTB ELMC Californian American Walnut or Black size 40

Hi mate, don't suppose you have a 42 you want to trade for a 40? I've got a walnut 40L but my 42R fits a little better.

 

@Thuggee, please be aware that ELMC Californian
usually goes almost a size smaller, @ProteinNerd has quite an athletic and svelte frame too.

 

I had a 40r. See measurements :

This is what Standard & Strange has for sizes:


Size Front Length Shoulder Chest Sleeve Length
38 24.25" 18" 42" 25.25"
40 24.75" 19" 44" 25.5"
42 25.25" 19.5" 46" 25.75"
44 26" 20" 48" 26"
46 26.75" 20.5" 50" 26.5"

 

It had become way too small for me, that's why I sold it.

My chest circumference is 43'. The californian in size 42 is a perfect fit for me.

According to your chest circumference I would say size 40r would be a good fit for you.

 

TBH the biggest difference between the 40 and 42 is more in the body than in the shoulder an pit to pit imo.

 

Exactly, that's what I'm talking about. ELMC Californian in size 42 fits like size 39-40.

 

PM sent.

 

@Thuggee , if anybody offers you size 40Long which possibly might be a bit too long for you - please let me know, I need Long version of size 40 mostly because of the sleeves (I need sleeves about 25.5"++ measured straight). Something else in high quality leather range (Badalassi CH, Shinki HH, Victory HH etc) might be interesting too. From my side, if I find size 40Regular, I'll surely let you know mate!

 

I'd let my 40L go if I could replace it with a 42R. (walnut)

So if anyone sees this and has a 42 or if @Thuggee or @Lebowski, you find a 42 in your search let me know and we can set up a trade.

The new ones are just too expensive these days for me to take the price difference hit for the small improvement in fit.

 

I agree. Eastman is selling these for £1195 nowadays. Although I love the Californian, I think that's too much money for what you're getting.

 

I have an Eastman California Havana Brown colored size 42 in a very good condition for sale. I will let it go for a reasonable price if anyone is interested....
