My size? Calling dibsThanks, it's great. Might be a touch long in sleeves, but I'm not complaining too much. I I still have the red label one coming in so I can compare them and might pass along one of them

Duly noted. It's probably about a 40/42 (will look at actual measurements if I come closer to moving it). I actually had a couple other people inquire about the jacket before it even showed up at my doorstep, but will definitely keep this in mindMy size? Calling dibs
Conmar zippers are good.Just bought an early "kindoff A-2 style" Grais (40-50s?) in seemingly heavy Front Quarter Horsehide.
Wind flap, quilted lining, size 40, with the cargo pockets and handwarmers because I like'em.
Small hole in the left sleeve rib that I intend to have repaired.
Planning to use it as my cold weather beater jacket, which I will probably have custom patched and maybe even painted with nose-art in the future.
Pretty good condition considering the age and price, 130 euros total shipped from Japan to France. Will post review and fit pics as soon as I get it.
Also if any of you have the name of the zipper, I'm quite interested

I had no plan what so ever of getting any new jackets for a while but when I saw this posted by @cashcheck in the finds and deals thread I jumped on it. I've been admiring the Trojan jackets on the forum for a while and this two-tone version just is too cool and unique.

Nice. I have not found any information about this label. Not sure if they were a maker or a label used by another bay area maker. Sierra do not come up that often. The few I've seen are fine looking jackets. I have one I'm very fond of. Thanks for sharing this one.Bought this Sierra Sportswear halfbelt a few days ago.

I don’t love how it fits me (short sleeves and boxy shoulders) but damn this is cool. First thought was to flip it but now I’m thinking that I’ll hold on to it for a while and see how it breaks in. If the shoulders relax it will make a big difference.

I really dig it on you. The short length will work both zipped and unzipped. And most of your jackets have sleeves on the shorter side anyway, don't see too much difference on this jacket. The shoulders and body will relax and make it feel more natural.View attachment 523184

Looks great. You paired it well with dark denim and white tee.View attachment 523184

Your concerns aside, that still looks amazing imo. You sell this and I will book a transatlantic flight, knock on your door, and introduce you to the back of my hand lol. Rare jacket too. Keep it!
Thank you. Couldnt resist. Have been interested in a square pocket jacket but do not want one with elastic waist.Nice. I have not found any information about this label.
