Heres goes -
"Introduction: Jacket was originally refurbished at Zip Stevenson and later sold to a reseller. I got it 2nd hand. Unfortunately the lining was worn and torn. Therefore I decided to relining by professional. It was time consuming and $$. The new lining material was sourced from an old stock and is as close as original incl. insulating material. I let the original United Carr press studs in place."
