NEW WITH ALL TAGS! GORGEOUS SCHOTT PERFECTO IN HORSEHIDE!
New and unworn, with all original tags! Made in the USA.

Tagged 44. This is a 618HH, which runs tight--so best for a 42. Or a 44, if you want the 1950s bad boy biker jacket look! Measurements:
NB: I bought this from Monitor, tried it on once... thought "THIS IS GORGEOUS AND BADASS ALL AT ONCE!") then got bitten by the Lost Worlds bug.... so now I want a J23 or J24 this needs to go!
Chest: 22 3/4
Sleeve: 25 (straight down)
Shoulder: 19 3/4
Length: 23 1/2 (from the bottom of the collar)
Hem: 21
THIS is the Schott Perfecto you want. In fact, THIS is the motorcycle jacket you want!
The Perfecto really needs no introduction at all--although if you're interested, I have a short history of this jacket in the post below! It suffices to say that this is THE classic biker jacket--the original, and still the best--short, tight, and awesome, this is a true American icon.
And this is no ordinary steerhide Perfecto--this is cut from Italian horsehide. A seriously substantial leather, this will mold to your body as you wear it, getting better and more attractive with use. I'll last for decades, and will develop absolutely beautiful grain.
It has a quilted lining for warmth, and a large interior map pocket. The main zipper is a beautifully robust Schott-branded zipper, and the studs are all Schott studs.
This jacket is NEW, WITH TAGS--just as it would be from a Schott store, but without the hefty price tag!
Naturally, this jacket was Made in the USA.
The 618HH Perfecto is now $1,025 new. So, how about $650, or offer, boxed, shipped, and insured in the USA, for THIS NEW Perfecto?
