I am selling a Schott 807 long jacket in a subtle yellow color. The jacket is in great shape, with some patina that adds character. The leather feels great and looks like 1.1 to 1.2mm naked cowhide. There are a few marks, such as a small stain on the inside of the sleeve and a pen mark near the...

I get it, at least I think I do. My first 5-star jacket had less-than-stellar stitching. It was longer by a full inch than the specified length, and the sateen sleeve lining ripped during the first week of wear. I didn't say anything because I thought it was a bargain price, and I should adjust...
