RARE 40s Goatskin Jacket by Strongbilt

[semolina_pilchard]

Since buying a few more vintage jackets I have come to accept that this one is just too small for me. I can wear it, but it's not comfortable. I would say that the measurements shown below are accurate.

It's real heartbreaker because I love this jacket and will not find one again, but I am trying to stick to the mantra of "if I can't wear it, I'm not keeping it".

It's a really unique aviator/sports jacket and is in great condition. The Talon zipper is the original. See the description below for further info.

Price is $950 including shipping by Paypal F&F.

I posted photos of it here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/vintage-outerwear-threads-of-the-past.102621/post-3101142

I bought it from Mushroom vintage in Japan. The link is still active https://vintage-mushroom.net/?pid=180287137

oh man, this would fit me perfectly; do you consider trades as well? how much for shipping it to Belgium?

Not looking for trades at the moment sorry - but shipping is included in the price.

Looking to move this jacket on quickly, so give me a shout if you're interested. Would consider a near offer.

Adding photos with the measuring tape, because it measures smaller than what was stated on the Mushroom Vintage site, in my opinion.

Needles to say but if this jacket were any bigger I'd already own it. An absolute steal for a super cool and rare jacket.

@semolina_pilchard do you think I could squeeze myself into this jacket? Lol

@Marc mndt if only!

It really is an amazing jacket, I thought it would be gone by now.
