Tony Nowak Originals Surrogates Leather Half Belt Jacket Size 40R
Measuremets (taken off of actual jacket laying flat zipped)
Chest (armpit to armpit to armpit across front):21 inches
Backlength (base of collar seam down back): 24 inches
Sleeve Length (shoulder seam to cuff): 24.25
Note: the sleeves have an elbow kink that almost seems naturally constructed so its hard to flatten them out to get a true measurement. I would say they actually measure closer to 25.
Front Length (under seam down front): 21 inches
Half shoulder (base of collar to shoulder seam): 6.25 inches
Shoulder to shoulder across back: 18 inches
Constructed by the master leather artisans at Tony Nowak Originals and under direct supervision of Tony himself, this jacket was one of one a very select few to be created and sold to the public. Crafted using the original Hero patterns of the jacket Tony specifically crafted for Bruce Willis in 2009's Surrogates. The leather is Tony's signature 747 italian leather cowhide and then artifically distrssed by hand, some of which Tony did himself! These jackets (which are no longer being produced, retailed for $975
Tony Nowak was "the" premier leather guy for hollywood for over 25 years constructing jackets for Arnold schwarzengger (he made the terminator jacket), Slyvester Stallone and so many others. His film credits include Indiana jones, G.I. Joe, Green Lantern, Tron, and others. He also worked on the Arnold Classic as well as planet hollywood. He sadly passed away a while back. Trust me, his quality is up there with Aero, belstaff and the like and he is a well known name in the leather jacket world but his son has taken over since Tony passed away and they are not doing custom orders right now...

I am transitioning from Nowak jackets to Belstaff jackets. Nothing against Nowak (i will always treasure the times i met him and i do have several projects in the works with Riley). I own several other Nowaks and Its just i want to branch out into something different and ive got bitten by the belstaff bug really bad. Besides if i did sell it any money would go straight into another belstaff.
Here are the ones im kinda looking for;
Racing blouson (any color)
Legend trialmaster (has to be the Legend model)
Pattison leather
JD blouson
Panther 1966 (either black or brown or antique black/brown)
Wanted Cougar
Ethan Suede Blouson
Dark Knight (has to be small or med)
Jacob Man
I am a medium, large in belstaff but smalls may work too. I already have a Hero, a Brad and a Dark Knight. So, if you have any of the above and are interested in trading or if you want to shoot me an monetary offer, go ahead!
