Why does everyone who posts a super high price always take the most low effort pictures and measurements...

It adds to the mystical appeal? Lol

I got the jacket today. Very well made, heavy jacket. Almost perfect condition besides a small scuff on the left shoulder.
Unfortunately just a little small on me. If anyone is interested I would be willing to let it go for what I paid ($162.60) plus shipping. Can take some photos of it if interested

I'll take a look!

I was looking for a like new old fit 44/46 for the longest time, and I was willing to pay the ¥250,000 (~$1,700) price. But now that it is available right in front of me, two of them, old and new fit, I am not pulling the trigger. What's wrong with me! I just got my first case of jacket buying depression... Maybe it's time for some ****** for buying jackets... JK.

Try vintage, that's next level rabbit hole.

That is a decent price for a vintage Langlitz in good condition. Meaning - not outrageous...

Ah yes, the rabbit hole I tried to avoid for so many years and eventually failed to avoid...

Says the guy whose video on his vintage Vanson jacket led me to buy three of my own, LOL.

I've been looking at these two as well. I know they'll probably fit me, but for that price, I think I'd rather chance it and try find it in the store to try on first at least. It's only slightly less than retail. Hopefully next trip I will find something that ticks all my boxes. So far, every Japanese jacket I've bought online have been swing and a miss in terms of fit.

No way that jacket fits me, and I still almost hit the bin.
