F/S Old type Eastman RAF 44

[John Lever]

Probably from the early 1990's this a very solid jacket made from darker type leather with paler golden fleece. For some reason I find these jackets impossible to photograph to show the true colours. The seam tapes always look slightly red which is not the case. They are dark tan.
The colour compares very well to period sheepskin. Slight abrasion to the arms, no wear at all on cuffs.

Asking £450 plus post and any fees. Reason for sale is to buy new mountain bike.
Sadly they don't make them like this any more...

The sheepskin is from an old pair of Irvin trousers. Thanks Andrew.

Here is a photo of an identical jacket from an early Eastman brochure -

The jacket was probably made in 1988.

Does 44 mean 46? Tempting if that were the case...

It's a 44 as stated. Fit depends on your preferences
