This is a very cool coat. 90% lamsbwool, 10% cashmere. Green with a blue windowpane that is subtle from a distance and obvious enough up close. 3 roll 2 button. Side vents. Ticket pocket. Unfinished sleeves (buttons included). The jacket is tagged a 42R but measures almost exactly to a 38R. I tried it on and it fits me quite well. I may end up keeping it, but thought I'd see if anyone here wants it first. $279 shipped. - Now only $139!

SOLD pending payment

Measurements
Shoulder: 18.25"
Chest: 40.5"
Waist: 19" - make that 38" (derrrrrr)
Length:30.25"
Sleeve: 25.5"

Yeah, it's a little strange that it measured this way. I had assumed it would measure to size, but when the shoulder came is so low I thought I'd try it on. Sure enough, a 38R. May be why it reached me.

I like it has something of a military look to it, but with style.

Does it fit quite slim?

I'm sort of in this weird limbo between 38 and 40 right now.....
