Sorry to mention this but I'm fairly certain from the number of times this has passed hands (citing length/fit as the culprit) that this is a women's jacket. Does the tag indicate Line 10 or 14? Don't think that MRS zippers were used on the men's line past 2006.

edit: Looks identical to current season women's 5-zip: http://eboutique.maisonmartinmargiela.com/us/leather-jacket_cod41352219vk.html

I might be wrong (if it's Line 10 or 14, I apologize and I'll delete this post), but I think this jacket needs to stop being passed around as a men's jacket. Current season women's 5-zip looks like it's retailing for just as much as the men's version (or more), so you might even be able to recoup more by selling it as a women's jacket on eBay.

Back length is definitely suspect... I have a 5-zip from S/S 2009 and back length is 25". Also, to the best of my knowledge, YKK zippers have been used on men's line 5-zips ever since 2007...

My guess is that the tag was removed to hide the fact that it's a women's jacket. Personally, I think you should try selling it as a women's piece on eBay, hopefully you'll fetch more..
