this one looks older than the one I had. Leather seems different too. A little more richer. I can tell because the belt loops have collapsed. Mine were stiff as a board. Hell of a jacket in any case. Tempting because I know these run longer than Cals, but it's too much jacket for me...
Best price I've seen for one of these. I'm tempted but I can't deal with any more short jackets and the action back is kind of a deal killer for me at this point.

I think this is the not so good Euro line. But if Schott ever rolls these out in 100 series leather or some sort of PER collection, they can take my wallet. Maybe a cool 5* repro down the line once I see more of their CXL or horse.

nice, good luck. Will be hell of a find for sure. I think what might happen is you might get a note saying jacket is unavailable as worst case. So you shouldn't be out of pocket. But hopefully you do get a nice quality jacket. I've had great luck with Buyee. 4 killer jackets. Only one...
jeez, with tax it would be like $3600. I've never handled one, so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but that's like 2 Thedis, maybe even 3 if you buy used. And I can't imagine it getting any better than that.
yeah, I have a love hate relationship with Aero. I love the CXL, but like a few of us have mentioned, the patterns aren't always the best. My Sheene is probably the tightest fitting, I think 22.5 ptp and 18 shoulder, but it just feels weird being worn. Love how it's evolved color wise, but...
just realized I can return this. So unless someone really interested, it's going back. I'll be out like $20 for return shipping, so best price on this would be $315. Let me know by tomorrow. It's gorgeous. If you wanted a CHP style, it's a little bit longer than the usual Cal in the sleeves...
Catch and release for me. Fits pretty much like the other Cal I'm trying to sell. Was hoping the longer back length would help, but not quite there.
This thing is near mint. Cant imagine it was worn much by the condition of the main Talon male pin. Other zips are C&C. Gorgeous, soft...
Nice!!! Yeah, was thinking the same. Except on the newer jackets you also have the ticket in the pocket for reference to help pinpoint the year, although the decade can sometimes be a toss up.
Great jacket. I own one. This model doesn't have the underarm footballs like the newer 618s do. Very light weight

Saw this posted in an ebay listing. Can't recall it ever being posted here. I know about the epic Talon zipper reference and this will be pretty handy as well.
thanks, yes, that's helpful. I was worried about the 24 ptp, usually I'm like 22.5 to 23. But doesn't seem too big on you. I'm 6'0 185. Good to know for next time
I cant even imagine the feeling of clearing this many from my closets. Good on you. I need to do something similar one of these days. That Polo is gorgeous.
be careful on this one. There's been Cheyennes listed at like 3 or 4 different sizes with the same photos. I tried bidding on one a few months back and ended up losing, but then noticed the jacket got relisted at the price of the final bid. Almost like they were trying to set the market...
nice one. What's your height/weight? I kind of sat on the fence on this one (mostly because it's just ridiculous the amount of stuff I bought lately, but was also worried about size). Just so I know for next time if one ever pops up again.
