That's mine and its in the classifieds.[/URL]
tagged 40 kehoe CR, swift zips. Looks like it runs strangely large (24" chest!)
Vanson Model E in size 44 in France for 300eu.
Light tan leather, rather rare I'd say.

Same sentiment here, hate VintedI like the jacket. Do not like the site.
Lightweight horsehide leather, don't event notice it when it's on. Rather spongy with a lot of give. Epic nylon lining. Pristine lining and zippers condition. Leather full of character, grain and some striations. Pigment dyed for sure. Super mobility, rather room in both body and sleeves, but definitely my size overall. Storm cuffs.Went for the LW, crazy deal at 220eu. Let's see how it goes.
Why conflicted? The jacket looks great on you.Rather conflicted and confused in terms of initial impressions, but I think it might grow on me when I have more chance to wear it.
Thank you! I also think it looks pretty good, just feels weird. The combination of thinner, softer and rather stretchy leather and the roomier fit (mostly sleeves and lower torso) is unusual. And the leather color/finish is not something I would go for normally. But like I said, it might all grow on me (and help me grow in terms of taste). OBJETIVELY I think it was a great purchase for the price. Subjectively I'm always my own worst enemy haha.Why conflicted? The jacket looks great on you.
It’s a made for Japanese market. Smaller size, lighter leather as they prefer. They’re still nice jackets.Lightweight horsehide leather, don't event notice it when it's on.

Super mobility, rather room in both body and sleeves, but definitely my size overall. Storm cuffs.
Overall a huge contrast vs my Aero or my Vansons, all of them being heavyweight.

Interesting you find it stretchy/spongy. I have a 2.5oz Ryder which I figured was about as light as it gets, but does not feel that way at all.Thank you!
