Purchased new from Epaulet and worn less than 10 times. New price was $575. This is a great lighter weight, Spring / Fall jacket, or for cool summer nights. Leather trim on collar with throat tab and inside the cuffs. Sateen inside the sleeves and cotton tartan main body lining.

I missed all the excitement with a busy weekend and not logging on - what a beautiful jacket and perfect fit. I agree with the earlier poster that the yoke and half-belt location are just spot on and in lovely proportion. Couldn't possibly do any better, IMHO. Congratulations.

Sorry that I am late to the party but as Fanch has noted and others, including Carrie, have confirmed, there's no flare at the bottom of either jacket. The Board Racer, because there is some material after the zipper, may appear to flare but the pattern itself is very straight. Those who have...
Beautiful jacket! - when these first hit the Epaulet website there was rightly a large buzz about them. I think you really nailed the description of the Italian HH, it's the softest, while still being substantial, leather I've ever handled. The fit is fantastic, the sleeves are about where I...
Perfect fit and I like how it's evolved, my concern is always when will it stop evolving and what will it look like then? I suppose if it starts to look too beat up for your taste, you can always hit it with some conditioner that will darken it some. Looks like you did very well with this one.
