That's an awesome jacket. What a color scheme, especially with the lining. It's another in a long line of jackets that look amazing to me but I can't imagine how to wear without looking silly. I take it hard, like some kind of a personal failing. Anyway, lovely jacket.
So glad you picked this one up. What do you think, late '60s / early '70s? Probably too big for me, too–one of the reasons I didn't go for it. Very Lee Rider-like, but unique with those buttons, which were, ironically, another reason I didn't go for it—not sure I could make it work. I saw...
