FS: Schott Perfecto 618, size 42

[Monitor]

Perfect Schott Perfecto model 618 in a size 42.

$270 Paypal. Friends & Family, please.

Nothing out of the ordinary, just a straightforward 80's era 618.

▶Info◀
Fantastic jacket. Very soft leather, Steerhide I presume. Standard Schott weight although it may not appear so because of how soft the hide is but comparing the seams to my Lost Worlds jacket, they come out at about the same so it's definitely in the 3 - 3.5 oz area.
No vinyl / plastic pieces on this one, by the way! All leather!

▶Condition◀
Worn but I don't think it could possibly be in a better shape. Other than the creases in the leather, not even the faintest mark of serious use, inside or out. Didn't even fade at the seams yet.
Clean, no odors of any kind, barely even smells of leather.
Just can't seem to find anything I could point out.

▶Size◀
Size 42. Fits tight and short. Definitely shorter than today's jackets. Too short for me, which is why I'm selling it. Measurements are...

P2P: 56 cm / 22"
Waist: 51 cm / 20"
Shoulders: 50 cm / 19.5"
Back: 61 cm / 24"
Sleeves: 65 cm / 25.5"

That's it. I'm here for any questions you may have. Shipping to anywhere within the EU shouldn't be over $15. Shipping to the US is $50. Elsewhere, we'll check.

Thanks!

This cool Schott is still available.

Good price for this jacket and from experience I can testify that Monitor is an upstanding selling. He will do his best to make smooth transactions.

Thank you kindly, @jonbuilder . The jacket is up for grabs. I'm open to reasonable offers.
The jacket is really good for decades of wear and I really like this shorter cut. Looks nicer, everything being balanced perfectly.

eBay deal fell through so the jacket is still up for grabs.

 

[Monitor]

Available. Best price for this bad boy on the market right now. I mean, for one in such perfect condition.

Also, don't forget it's already in Europe so EU buyers really get a bargain here. Shipping to anywhere EU shouldn't be more than $15.

Alright, let's try $250. Mint 618 sz. 42 for $250. Crazy, I know.

^^ Awesome jacket, Monitor - he is simply great to deal with. If this were a bit longer I'd be all over it. Monitor will take great care of you if you decide to buy from him!

Is this the same jacket I am going to be sending you denim for?

No! I have... Um... 11 of them! XD

You really want this jacket? You've got like 20 true vtg. Perfecto's in like Horsehide and all that stuff.

Yet another time-waster later (this time on Grailed), and this jacket still remains unsold. Rivet and Hide sells basically the same jacket for over a thousand Euro's. Why tho.

Offer stands.

 

[Monitor]

Sold. Thanks!

Hey, tell me if I shouldn't have resurrected this thread, I'm looking for a perfecto myself, and the sizing on one of these has me all confused. I'm 5'11 160lbs, 41" chest, 32" waist. I'm very lean and pretty muscular for that size. Over the next few months I plan to put on 10-15lbs more of muscle. I wear a M Levi's denim jacket that is just perfect, I can't button it up and hug myself or move my arms straight up all the way. Would your jacket have fit me? I intend to use your judgment to buy the next one I see, so thank you for your time.

Yep, no doubt. I'd say this would've worked perfectly for you. I'm around 40" chest and there plenty of room left when I zipped up this jacket over a T-shirt. Even so, I wouldn't size down. It's a roomy jacket but I believe you are a 42 in a Schott 618, too.

Thanks Monitor!

Thanks Monitor!

No problem, happy to help. Make sure to ask Schott, too. They're helpful and TBH, best you check and be sure rather than follow the advice on the site to "size down" with certain models.
