For Trade: Original 1950's Sears Hercules size 40 looking for 42 or 44 vtg

[gtdean48]

The 40 is just too snug in chest & shoulders. Length is fine in body & sleeves.
Very nice vintage example. Will provide photos for anybody with something to trade.
Was going to let my son have it but he has shown no real interest in vintage leather jackets...gets that from his mom I guess....[huh]

Time for an adoption.

maybe if you post up pics of yours you'll elicit a bit more interest.

And if the thing doesn't fit you, then surely were there no trades on the table, you'd be better off selling for straight cash, no?

 

[gtdean48]

Maybe, but mostly maybe not. Those size 40 interested in original Hercules know what they're interested in....JMHO

Had some interest, so here are some photos...

Wow, lovely!
I think it's just a little too big for me :-(
Good luck!

Man oh man....

 

[nick123]

That's unreal. Sleeves are nice and long, but just a tad short for me.

Can re-measure if you want to double check anything specific....

 

[nick123]

No worries!

This jacket is too nice not to go to a Lounger... Do any of the jacket vendors consider originals for trade-in?
