I picked up two of the fabled good-leather Gap trucker jackets, one in M and one in L. Unfortunately I seem to be right in between the two sizes, so I'm moving them both on (see separate posting for the size L) and I thought I'd offer them here first before putting them on eBay/Kleinanzeigen.
Here, the size M. This one came to me smelling like ashtray (a smell I'm quite sensitive to). I managed to eliminate all of the unpleasant odor with two cycles in the front-load washing machine and a treatment of Effax Leder Balsam.
The leather is really quite nice on these. Not super heavy, but high quality, with lots of character. If the tag is to be believed this one is from 1999.
The measurements, to the best of my abilities, are:
Shoulder: 49.5cm
Pit to pit: 57cm
Sleeve (measured straight): 59cm
Length: 58.5cm, with a ~4cm front drop
Waist: 52cm
I'm asking €85 plus actual shipping cost. Located in Germany. Probably better for US/Canada-based buyers to source one locally, as I imagine shipping etc would be prohibitive. Paypal F&F or IBAN transfer. Here's my ebay profile feedback for reference: https://www.ebay.de/usr/burnblue00?_tab=feedback
