Is that a <18” ptp on a tagged 38?

I found the measurement weird as well, 44cm chest with a roughly 44cm shoulder. Probably why that listing has been on jp mercari for a long time.

It’s just a very poor attempt at a true p2p measurement, the armpit edges are folded back and not visible under the tape.

I’ve seen some shops do this as well when asking for measurement pics.

Ok I see. Make a lot more sense.

Can anyone gauge the size. The pit to pit looks to be about 22 inches, but the listing says the sleeves are short

Regius' repro is really spot on

It says it in the description -
There is no size listed, but it is a large size of about 42.
Shoulder width 46cm, body width 57cm, length 63cm, sleeve length 60cm

Keep in mind I expect the bidding to be high on this, and to not forget about any customs fee that you may need to pay.

This pre-70s Cal cross-zip is a deal at $175 with free shipping assuming the site is legit (and you can ascertain the size)!

The auction ended at ¥180k. Is that a reasonable price on such a vintage piece?

I believe it is worth the price it sold for.

I believe it is worth the price it sold for.

I didn’t win, but it’s good to know.

I believe it is worth the price it sold for.

I agree, it was well worth that money.

I saw this Lost Worlds jacket advertised on eBay - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/11640326...dECUgLpTcK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

But it looks like a Langlitz Columbia as opposed to LW??

For those of you who know LW well - what are your thoughts? No label.

I suppose the resale value won’t be great given the lack of label.

I was offered £580 including postage and import taxes to UK.

Can't believe I'm posting this instead of buying it, but I already have one exactly like this and all I would do is flip it, which I don't normally do. This is literally priced at $65 BIN, and says it has been professionally cleaned recently. 30 day returns too. Somebody buy it and let me know how you like it. Mine has been GREAT

Size 42 Vanson Avenger. Those zips in the front allow the flaps to fold into their lower "pocket", and exposes the leather mesh under those panels. Great versatile riding jacket for varying temps. Short in the front, port of their Sportrider collection. My favorite riding jacket and I have 8.
