Smart choice, your GF sounds like my wife, who hides my purchases that she dislikes. I suspect she gives some of them to charity. They just disappear.

Lol...bustin a gut!!

They asked for a return label.....they are still waiting.

Grail, one of a kind CAL w/ chest pocket. And two way zipper. Some of the best leather and grain I've seen on one. @JMax , for the collection, perhaps? At $310 it's a steal.

It doesn't look short in neither back nor sleeves, too.

Oh man, I asked seller for measurements. This is amazing, a 42 may work if larger. I doubt I can get into a 40. 44 and it’s mine!

And I’ve been eyeballing a Vanson too. Decisions decisions.

Thanks for the heads up.

Sure thing. I'd probably buy right now it if I was in the States. Can you post the measurements if the seller replies? It really is a perfect Cal.

The padded one on eBay still haunts me dreams too.

Nice Cal CHP jacket by all means!

@Monitor

Here is what he sent. Still waiting for photos but this is closet to a 46 if accurate.

Shoulder seam to shoulder seam is about 20-1/2”

Armpit to armpit is 25”

Shoulder seam to sleeve cuff is 25”

Base of neck to bottom is 26”

I’ve got that deer in headlights feeling. I think it may be a tad big if 25” is on point. Waiting for pictures (I hope it measures out to 26” so this little deer can prance back into the forest).

Huh... TBH, I'm not surprised to hear this. I thought it looked bigger than a 42 on the photos. It's a wider jacket but Cal's fit so well it's still worth it. Sleeves are probably 26", too. Obviously longer than the jacket. Man...

This is a hell of a Cal. A black beast.
And the price can’t be beat.
That hide speaketh truth.

Your Jedi mind tricks are strong. I’m so close to sending this guy my money. I need to go for a quick run...
