From Epaulet's website:
"This handsome dress-casual piece is sure to be one of the most worn items in your wardrobe. This particular model is made-up in show-stopping loden green pig suede. The elegant mossy green color is distinctive and easy to wear.
Pig suede is prized for its durability and soft, luxurious texture. While comparable in feel, pig suede is far more durable than its lamb or calf counterparts. This tougher nature makes pig suede superior at retaining the original shape of a garment; your jacket won't stretch out very much at all. It's most visually distinctive feature are small, faint tone-on-tone spots. These follicle marks are what make pig suede so coveted.
The slim 50's style point collar has soft Italian calfskin details beneath it - including a working throat latch. Two front slash pockets also have calfskin liners on the interior. Rear side tabs allow you to tighten the bottom hem if you desire. The interior is fully lined with forest green tartan cotton in the body and smooth acetate in the sleeves, and has a single pocket on the inside. The front closes with a single-way, medium-gauge brass zipper.
Chest: 21"
Shoulder: 18.75"
Sleeve: 25"
Length: 24.75"
Only worn a few times - a little darkening on the collar but other than that no real signs of wear.
Drop to $165 shipped CONUS.
