Brioni leather Jacket

Brioni leather jacket. Very fine lightweight black leather with a stripe of black suede as well as black suede accents on pockets. I bought this jacket at Morris and Sons in Chicago at half price and it retailed for $5200. I have never worn it, other than trying it on at home. The silk lining is wild but the exterior is conservative. The waist ans wrists are tapered. Size says 50 but I wear 52 (large) usually and this fits me well. It would be too big for someone who is a true 50/medium. It's too fancy for me and I have many other brioni leather jackets already. Asking $880 shipped in CONUS.

Nice. It was a true 40/50R I might have jumped at it, though the 'lattice work' does make me think a little harder.

This jacket is available again if anyone is interested. The sleeves were too short for the person who bought it. Measurements are listed above. Again, it retails for over $5000.
