FS: Fine Creek Ekins - 44 (fits like 40)

[Cheech]

Hi, everyone. I'm selling a Fine Creek cafe racer in like-new condition. I currently have it up on Ebay, but I'd sell it here for $750 (PayPal FF, shipping included in the continental US).

This jacket shows no signs of wear. The famously quick-wearing Shinki horsehide that FCL uses has no scratches and shows no signs of the black pigment dye wearing off, although the sleeves already have considerable graining. Of course, FCLs fit notoriously small, even smaller than I anticipated, which is why I'm selling.

Measurements are as follows:
-Pit to pit: 21.25”
-Sleeve length (straight down from shoulder seam to cuff): 24.25”
-Shoulder width: 17”
-Hem opening width: 19.25”
-Back length (from collar seam to hem): 25.75”

Feel free to shoot me any questions. Thanks!

Beautiful jacket - good luck with the sale! But damn, I expect 17" shoulders on a size 34-36, not a 44 or even a 40. Crazy cuts/patterns.

The shoulder measurement does seem narrow but doesn't feel quite so narrow with the jacket on, and I have always spec'd 19-inch shoulders on custom jackets. Unfortunately, the dealbreaker for me is the sleeve measurement. I'm just too tall/long-armed for this jacket. Otherwise, I love the leather and the cat's eye pockets. This will look killer on the someone with the right proportions.

Beautiful jacket. There is a member here looking for such a jacket. I hope he reads this post. The jacket is excellent designed and measurements. The size # is sometimes meaningless because of how some companies advertise their products. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the cemetery or pattern proportions. Japan in general promote their sizes for their direct population. Due to present market trends, we are constantly exposed to imported products and the convenience of fast shipping. We all know that nothing beats trying on a garment on the flesh. My only comment regarding this brand is that target, an older fit pattern. Similar to Bates. If I had the body for it, this look would be by far my exclusive choice.

Amazing jacket, his style has no pockets apart from the zippers outside chest right? How much would you charge to ship to Europe? Thank you
