As many of you know, I have owned MANY Indy jackets over the years from almost every manufacturer that makes them. I have owned several from Wested, several from US Wings, and even several from Tony Nowak Originals. However I am starting to move away from the hobby to pursue other things, and as such some things need to go. In a part of me it hurts to give this away, but this Bill Kelso Relic Hunter is probably one of the best Indy jackets I have ever owned. It gets nearly everything I wanted in an Indy jacket right. It feels superb. The leather is amazingly soft. And most of you have heard of the high quality of these jackets.

Here are some measurements and details:

Leather: Striated lamb
Color: Authentic brown
Size: 42
Pit to Pit: 23.5"
Back length: 25"
Sleeve length: 26"

This jacket has been worn a little. I say little because since I have owned it I haven't had much of a chance to wear it. This being said, it has been worn and as such has some minor scuffing and marks. There is also a decent sized scruff in the leather on the back panel (no idea where it came from- although Andy at Bill Kelso MFG has told me that small dabs of glue can put it back into its place).

These sell for nearly $800. I am looking for $600 shipped in the US.

This goes to show just how much the Pound has fallen, because a brand new one nowadays is about $640.
