I've just opened the parcel and 24hrs after buying on ebay I've received a new/unworn 184sm.Absolutely delighted. I tried one on in new York and hated the leather, nowhere near as good as my 35yr old steerhide jacket. So was a bit nervous, needn't have worried, it's terrific. Easily one of the best ebay buys I've had .delighted with it.A new jacket at less than half price :)


Nice score. I looked at one like that a couple of months ago, but got outbid late in the day. Keeping half an eye out. I like the black version. Could be nice for cooler Spring days. I still have a notion for an Aero Wilderness for a colder weather jacket, but not sure if they've canned that pattern as I don't see it on the website any more.

I assume you can't determine the age until you receive the jacket? Or is some clue in the labels? I am negotiating with a Japanese seller. It is a brown jacket but the color is lighter than on some other jackets I have seen.

I was more concerned with the condition, this is immaculate, I think it's possibly been a try on jacket in a store or maybe a sizing return. Either way it was a steal with the price paid.

Such a cool jacket this 184SM. Looks like an immensely practical cool and stylish jacket for the winter months.

I think it might be my next purchase, would anyone here have any advice ?

Are new ones any good ?

Yes, but too expensive! You can eBay one for a very deep discount.
