This jacket sold on ebay for US $1,899.00

https://www.ebay.com/itm/234973894110


All his photos are different location, nothing consistent.

Beware.

I remember that one. It sold for $1899?! Insane. I guess because it has cool patina?

Good eye. Thanks for the head up. I might be selling a very similar j24l in steer just like the one in the image. Mine however still has excellent condition hardware including the main zip. The only issue is the sleeves were shortened by one inch. I will sell it for 500 us dollars deliver. If I get any interest, I will photograph with all the correct measurements. The jacket size is 40 or 38.

Is it the long version of the j24? It has an extra ‘l’ so I wonder.

 

[jauregui]

the L is a newer version of the j24. Personally, I like the regular j24 due to the construction quality. But the last production of the j24L bucos in steer develops a very supple and light brown patina that I really like.

Thanks for the clarification. I’ll send you a PM when I get home from work today. Take care now.

Can someone give me a good resource to show someone how to properly measure a jacket?

Scam Listing.

Been seeing this frequently of late on eBay. This same jacket and an RL jacket. Caveat Emptor.
