Hey ladies and gents,
I haven't been active here for awhile, but I owe the last 15 years of jacketology mainly to this august body, and I have a Bill Kelso to peddle to anyone it fits. I tried posting it here first but I must be rusty on the process in my old age, so I'll post the link to the ebay listing I made for the thing here instead:
I'll copy the listing details below. PM me for any questions or clarifications you need. This is a really nice jacket and I hate to let it go, but it's not my size no matter how much I squint. And yes, we can work something out here off the 'bay. PPFF works great.
Cheers

This is a fantastic Bill Kelso striated lambskin Relic Hunter, basically new. I took a chance on it but it doesn't fit me properly, which is a pity becuase this jacket is exquisite. The lambskin is hard to describe, as it feels sturdy and substantial while at the same time it's soft and drapes like fine cloth. Really impressive stuff in my book, and I've owned some doozies.
Anyway, the jacket is marked as a 44 but I am hard pressed to understand how any part of it is based on a 44 pattern. View the measurements carefully. I belive it fits like a 46Long or even a 46/48 Big and Tall. I am 6'1", lean and athletic, and it's just a little long and big for me in the body and the shoulders (I normally wear 46R)
Measures as follows (my tape lays wonky in photos I know):
Pit to Pit 25.5"
Shoulders 22"
Sleeves 25:
Back 28"
Front storm flap 27"
