Sack Jacket from Peter's of Chagrin Falls
I think this is a very old exchange pickup of mine, I never got around to getting it taken in and it was always too short.
I estimate it'd be good for someone who's more of a 38 or 40 R, as I usually need close to an long.
From Peter's of Chagrin Falls (home to America's greatest living recluse cartoonist).
3/2 sack center vent, made in the USA of some very soft material
The one drawback is that there is some pretty ad, wispy piling, but it's nothing that some time with a steady hand and a razor couldn't fix, because of this asking $15 shipped or offer
20.5" across the chest, 17.5" shoulders, 24.5" sleeves, 30" bottom of collar to hem down the back
