Hi.

I got these from American vintage and they didnt really fit me right.
Pretty nice tho.


The vest is way too small for me.
I think it should look nice on a girl.
It said it was new when I bought it and it looks to be in perfect shape
but there is one of the inside buttons missing.
Its the middle one.

Im asking $40 plus shipping and I live in scandinavia.


The jacket is really cool and comfortable.
It is soft like a thick shirt and looks well made.

Now the jacket is used and it shows. It is in general good shape
but there are some small spot-areas here and there.
It is also a little dirty on the cuffs but I am sure it can be sanded away.

What didnt work for me was the collar that is very big.
It is very cool, but when I got the jacket it wanted to hang
out very much. I wetted the collar and dryed it in shape
and its much better now as you can see on the pics.

However it wouldnt surprise me if it will go back out again
thus making the flaps very large so think about this first.
If I lived in texas I would wear this every night but I dont so its
a little to much of an attentiongetter where I come from.

The collar also got darker from the wetting, but Im sure it can be brushed
up to its original color, I can try this if someone wants me to.
