Asking $1050 via PayPal F&F, Venmo, or Zelle -- shipping included via UPS in the USA.

Will be posted soon to eBay, etc. for buyers who'd prefer international shipment or invoice purchase.

Up for sale is a beautiful Rainbow Country Ponyboy jacket in tobacco brown Shinki horsehide. I had previously posted the jacket for sale (lots of pics and info there) prior to having the zipper fixed by Dena, who is highly recommended in this forum and also has much experience repairing Rainbow Country zippers. Sadly, RC stock zippers have issues as evidenced by many folks, despite being gorgeous jackets. I got this one secondhand from a seller in Japan, and the zipper also ended up having problems after a few wears. I sent it to Dena, who put a beefier real Talon zipper on there at my request and I think it looks better than the standard small zipper. Let me know if you want a picture of the restitch there, she did a great job but you may want to see the work yourself. Rest assured it works much better than the zipper that originally came on the jacket.

From my old post:

This jacket is from top tier jacket company Rainbow Country. Supposedly the house brand of Freewheelers and co., RC makes some really nice pieces. This Ponyboy is absolutely gorgeous, by far my favorite that they offer. It is based off a 40s sports coat design. Made in Japan.

It is cut from a substantial Shinki horsehide. The lining is a nice cream oatmeal colored satiny material.

Overall, the jacket is in good condition. I am the second owner. I bought it secondhand from Japan, and am the second owner.

There are some small scratches, marks, and patina developing.

There is also a light stain on the bottom of the inside lining, this is pictured. The size tag print has worn off, but it's a 38.

Other than that, no smells or holes or tears. There are small nicks and lots of patina. Tons of life left on this jacket.

It has been used, so please review the photos to ensure the condition and measurements will suit you.

Measurements:

Pit to pit: 52 cm

Hem: 50 cm

Sleeve: 59 cm

Length: 64.5 cm in front, with a 60 cm back

Size 38

That said, please note that this jacket is sold as is, no returns, so please ask any questions before bidding or buying. Thanks!
