Hey,

I am currently looking to move on a Fine Creek Leather Leon Custom in black.

This jacket was purchased new from New York, in March 2019. It's in immaculate condition and has been worn three times.

At the time of purchase refund was not an option, I intended to get the fit bang on and for me I feel, frustratingly, I'm between a size 40 and 42.

Better to move it on before I break it in.

FCL Size 42

- Chest (P2P) - 20.5"
- Shoulders (between shoulder seems at rear) - 18.25"
- Arm (outer shoulder seem to cuff) - 25"
- Base of collar to hem length 25"

$1500.00 USD.

Jacket is located in Australia.

If I wouldn't have bougth the RMC J24 from you (I like it!) I would be tempted to buy the FCL from you. To everyone who's interested in buying this FCL from him, I confirm that he is a serious/honest seller! Anyway, GLWS!

Nice jacket, but to cut its belt wasn't a good idea.

Hey thanks!!!! :)

Oh ok haha! (Apologies in advance if your joking) this model is a variance of the FCL “Leon the noster” aptly named the “leon custom” - it comes new with epaulettes and belt removed, frayed ends included ;)

Oh really?! Haven't known that, seriously.
Well, anyway it's not my cup of tea, I mean even if that was done intentionally by the maker - I don't get it. Looks like kind of abuse on the jacket.

Haha! Yeah I guess the abuse is really an acquired taste, for me I moved a buco on and this finds its place to be more simplistic and subtle.

I never thought I would like a jacket with belt but today was actually googling the FW la brea

I have both the Nostar and the Custom. At first, I wasn't sure what the leather tabs were on the Custom and then realized FCL builds a Nostar with belt and epaulets and then cuts them off, leaving only the leather fragments as a design choice. I don't really have an attachment (pun intended) to the leather bits but I do like the clean lines of the jacket without the belt. Oddly enough, I've received more compliments on this jacket than most of the others I own combined. Definitely an acquired taste on some of the FCL jackets. Now if I could just find one of their CRs...

Great deal at 1350. I'm super tempted to snag this even though I know my wife would institutionalize me.
