Beautyful jacket, one of the best batches of full grain Italian HH I have personally expereienced.
I stumbled upon it couple years back in the Son Of A Stag store in London and I was so impressed I forked out £1,300 there and then!
I then ordered the collar direct from SLH for another £100
Amazing grain and lots of character straight up but also real easy and comforteable from the get go, tried it on, fitted perfectly, and the credit card came out!
For the next couple of years it was a careful part of the rotation, picked ahead of many for special occasions, always drew lots of compliments and a real "Leather jacket chat-starter"
Fast forward to 20KG-weight loss later, and it is now way too big. I love the jacket and I have even got in touch with Marco at SGH to explore possible re-size and alteration but the logistic is prohibitive and in the end failed to pursuit. I can still wear it with heavy layering but that is not really my style and as a result it has fallen off the rotation completely and now languishing on the bench
Coditions:
It has been worn perhaps 20 times in all, it is solid and in pristine conditions, breaking in was not really necessary in the first place but it has nevertheless soften somewhat from the initial stage.
Sizing and measurements:
Labelled 2XL, fits more like an XL/44
Pit to Pit 23.5"
Shouders 19.5"
Sleeves 26"
Back length 26"
Bottom hem 21" with side adjustment fully done up
Realistically priced at £650 (USD 860- EU 745) and Happy to ship worldwide with insurance
Not listed anywhere else at the moment and if doesn't sell here I might just keep it for winter layering and motorcycle use with armoured base layer under it!
