For sale is a beautiful authentic harris tweed jacket by Miu Miu (Pradas sister brand). The fabric is also pinstriped which looks really great in contrast to the rough tweed.

Bought last year and only used 5-6 times during the autumn. In great condition, i dare almost say like new condition, there is some small spots from sunless tanning ruboff inside the arm lining that ofcourse isnt visible (the arm lining is traditional italian pinstriped white, unlike the main lining which is shimmering blue). Will go away w/ a dry clean

Size EU 52 , fit a US 40-42, see measurements below

Chest : 21" armpit to armpit
Sleeves 26.5"
Total length 32"

Im asking $100 plus shipping, $30 fixed worldwide (heavy jacket so i cant ship cheaper)

Paypal accepted ofcourse

would 40-42 be a typical size "Large"?

Depends. A lot of more traditional cuts would put a 42" actual chest measurement in the 38-40R range, which is roughly a medium. If you want something more slim and fitted, then 42" comes in around 40-42R, wich is roughly a large.

Yes, it depends on what you compare to, i'd say it's like a RL purple label jacket in size large, or a ralph lauren polo jacket in size medium. So it's a "Euro Large" as i call it, not a US-large

What is the measurement on the shoulders?

Also, is the coat canvassed or fused?

Thanks,

John

Shoulders are about 19" measured at top of shoulders

I dont know if it's canvassed or fused, i tried the pinch test but it's really hard on this rough fabric
