made in italy. this has the softest suede i've ever felt. cut very thin and somewhat blistered in some areas. amazing drape and feel on the body. signature sleeve cut-out details. chunky lampo zippers.

extremely rare-- this is the only one of these i've seen on the re-sell market in the last five years.

size 50, and fits true, but could be worn oversized or slimmer, depending on your preferences.

~6/10 condition. some smudging/staining, especially at the sides of the shoulders and back of the collar, and a bit on the chest (see last four pics). *not every apparent discoloration in the pics is an actual one-- a lot of it is just the grain of the suede.* i have not taken this to a leather cleaner to see if the smudges can be removed, and in a sense i think they are inevitable given the material. definitely not a jacket for someone looking for a pristine piece-- this is meant to pick up character through wear. also missing the zipper pull (not the slider) from the right chest pocket. these signs of wear are reflected in the price.

measurements:
pit to pit: ~21.5"
shoulder to shoulder: ~19.25" (but looks fine worn oversized-- see fit pics)
sleeve from shoulder: ~26"
back length: 25"

fine print
- price includes usps priority shipping with tracking within the us; if you live elsewhere, please ask for a shipping quote.
