With great sadness, I am letting go of this lovely piece from my "collection" since I have another Barbour that I wear more (the Beaufort is just too handy with kids, especially for loading the back pocket with diapers, food, etc.).
This is an interesting piece, as it is a Bedale with two chest pockets (hence my claim that it is "rare". I have seen very few of this particular style) in the motorcycle jacket style
The overall condition is good-vintage. Structurally it is good and wearable. There are the typical wax cotton pinholes which I have attempted to show here in a a few places (near front pocket, on sleeve, near zipper) but nothing that can't be repaired with relative ease. The front right pocket has a hole in it and needs repair (pictured). Typical old Barbour smell of wax and stories. Lining appears to be intact as well as the sleeves.
Fit: a true-to-size Barbour 38. It fits either like a regular US/UK Small or a slim-fitting (but not tight) M. My actual chest is about a 39R, and this fits nicely with a light sweater underneath without being restricting or tight.
Price includes PayPal fees; shipping charges will be actual shipping to your destination. Please note that shipping to the US from the EU can be slow via regular mail lately due to increased scrutiny by Homeland Security (or Customs, or somebody!).
