first up: wjk/AKM black canvas M65.



Super, super, super slim. It fits exactly like a Dior Homme jacket. Marked a size "Large" but that's kind of a joke. I'm a 38" chest and it fits me... but barely. It's very tight in the shoulders/back so I'm letting it go. It would be best for a 36" chest. It measures about 50cm from armpit to armpit, and about 41cm from shoulder to shoulder. The armholes are very very high and very very narrow. Features a black double Riri zipper for the main placket and a small, short Riri zipper on the breast pocket.

It's been worn 3 times and is pretty much brand new. It includes the original cardboard tag and a full-size AKM garment bag. $530 shipped in North America

next: Raf Simons spring/summer 06 shiny cotton riders jacket.


(2nd pic has flash; 1st doesn't)

This is a riders-style jacket made out of a really neat semi-shiny soft cotton fabric. Lots of zippers, different ways to wear it. It's marked a size 48 and fits my 38" chest perfectly. However, it's pretty short (since it's a riders-style jacket)... I don't have measurements on hand, but if you're a US 38/EU 48, this jacket will fit you perfectly.

$375 shipped in North America

WJK large? That's supposed to fit you, weird, and too bad, that it's so small. I'm sure a 36" would loose the styling though.
