After trawling the Schott website's threads, the best I can identify this jacket is to say that it seems to be a 156 from the early 1980s, though it could be a 157 from a bit later. I still can't tell the difference. Even Gail's responses to dating similar examples seemed to waver and change a...
You can check the seller's Other Items and tick the Completed Items box to see their previous listings. The seller sold this jacket last month for a sub-$70 offer (with $690 shipping), and now it's back up for sale. Buyer probably didn't notice the shipping or thought it was a mistake. That's...
Sweet deal on a warm looking Schott Rancher, size 42; $60 with Offer option + $8 shipping
Photos not great. Needs a little restitching. Seller says it's 18 inches across the front and the same across the back, but it's clearly tagged a 42. I think they must be measuring across the yokes...
Stages of drinking:
1. Trolling friends online
2. Beginning to feel the buzz

4. Hunger

Kick ass, sweet as F (stands for Fidelity), 21" pit to pit. $250 with offer option + shipping. Was tempted to say it's a bit overpriced for a Fidelity, but ... damn, this is cool!

Case in point... Tagged a 44, measures like a small 42. Seller saved his time and mine by including photos of measurements. Why I'm firmly in the "just put the measurements in the listing and be done with it" camp. That being said...
I went on a similar-to-Clay's mini-rant on the...

Well... depends on what this particular seller means by "shoulder to hem".
Could be another couple inches, maybe? Anyway, just eyeballing it, it looks like the back length is greater than the pit to pit. Assuming the 23.5 inch pit to pit is correct, I would have guessed the back length at...
And one beauty of a collar! It is an unusual cut. A bit like old Lee Storm Riders, though of course the Lees have even more generous sleeves. In any case, it's a honey. Marc's got Trucker Bragging Rights for the foreseeable future.
Next door in Albuquerque, I think. (Parr of Arizona has made a killer trucker or two.) But yeah, with the Pioneer Wear, lots and lots of fringe. Honestly, I never had any interest in their stuff until I saw that trucker.
Lots and lots and lots of fringe.
