Saint Laurent two-tone from the 2014 collection - probably a size 40. I'd definitely buy if it were my size.

I believe this is from a member here, as I think I saw him post that link. It's not a deal, but it is pretty rare in that color and quite cool looking.

Yes, it's my listing on ebay. It's priced as a "find" but it's a lot due to ebay fees. 13.5% commission, including the sales tax and shipping makes it closer to 15% which makes me almost not want to sell anything there.

When I posted it on the classifieds I did say I'd offer a special price to loungers on a off-bay deal. For a almost-new Octagon Vanson, a leather that is no longer made, I think it's worth a bit of a premium considering rarity and condition.

They say its tagged as a 54EU/44US but those measurements...I know SLP is gonna run slim but still.

lol sorry just my term for vintage jackets with a destroyed topcoat

I like it. Do these top coats fail because of age, sun, oils? And I can imagine they don't fail uniformly like we would hope. How would one mitigate a quasi state? Additionally what are some of these top coats made from usually such as a schott non naked leather?
