I'm selling my custom Johnson's M-200. What I really wanted when I had this made was a Premier Highwayman, but that wasn't a thing yet and I really wanted to do a project with Alan. Alan was awesome to work with, I just didn't have the best idea of what I really wanted at the time. I planned on sending the jacket back to Alan to have him make a couple changes, but by the time I got around to it Alan was out of the CXL and would be unable to make the changes I was wanting, so we would have wait until he goat suitable leather in to use. The jacket has been sitting as a result. I've only worn it around the house, never outside. I've been fine letting the jacket sit until now, but some unexpected home repairs popped up and I'd rather not cut into our upcoming 5 year anniversary trips fund.
I think the CXL Over-dye is probably my favorite leather ever. It is simultaneously heavy and supple. It had a dry feel to it at first, but I used Obenauf's Leather Oil on it to fix that.
The size is 42, but I would say it fits like a 44. I took photos with measurements shown. The main part of the changes I wanted to make to the jacket was a larger collar. I have a round face that seemed to be highlighted by the collar size, so I would check that measurement as well to make sure it will work for you.
In the specs you will see that I added a concealed carry pistol pocket to fit a Sig P-230, but should accommodate similar sized handguns such as a Walther PP or PPK. It also has a snap out liner and leather lined pockets.
Price dropped to $300. Buyer would pay shipping. If you have any questions feel free to shoot me a message.
