FS: New Bill Kelso Diamond D pocket

[regius]

Some of you may remember this jacket when I got it, after a long wait. Liberty HH (pretty sure it’s Aero’s Vicenza, from Victoria srl), very good leather. Red rayon lining, NOS ring C terminal zipper on the D pocket, and most of all, the very unique, 1920s diamond D pocket with side opening, completed with double pleated back. Never worn, never got a chance to wear, due to COVID and summer season. I need some funds so letting it go. Very well made as expected of BK. Measurements coming up, it’s a 42” I’d say

Reg, have you asked them about such sleeve length? They def look to be on a short side a little bit, don't they?
Man, if the sleeves vere 25.5"-26" measured straight I'd be tempted 'cause it's absolutely totally gorgeous jacket!

 

[regius]

I asked for shorter sleeves, I like neat cuff, to not get in the way of doing things

 

[regius]

Let me just measure again, my memory was 25.25, I might have measured the sleeves wrong to be honest!!

 

[regius]

CORRECTION, sleeves are 25.25, NOT 24.25! couldn't believe I made such a mistake!! Now it matches my spec per my email to Andy.

Is the sleeves length 25.25 measured straight or around the curve Reg?

Man, that's a good-looking jacket. The back and the red lining are nice additions to an otherwise common pattern.

Straight, the proper way.
