€420 + shipping from the EU.
⚜ INFO ⚜
My fourth E. Sort of. Proxied the jacket for a friend who decided he strongly dislikes the color. That was over two weeks ago as ever since I had the jacket in my possession, I couldn't bring myself to sell it. Vanson always sort of reminds me how good a good jacket can feel & why I am a part of a group of people that talk about jackets. If there's a jacket that feels like home - Warm, cozy, perfect home, one that you feel you could spend the rest of your life in - that jacket is Vanson's Model E.
But you know all this.
Perfect, perfect jacket. Mobility, comfort, cut... Not to mention warmth & sturdiness. Obviously, this is an older jacket & while there's some talk recently about how there's good and bad Comp. weight leather, this stuff, as far as I am concerned, is the best.
As thick as it gets, the leather is uncorrected with natural grain. No acrylic, pastic-y feeling finish. Just surface pigment. Feels very natural and despite the thickness, it is surprisingly soft and pliable.
All else, you ought to know. Classic Model E sans the vertical lining pocket. In depth info is here.
⚜ CONDITION ⚜
As stated, older jacket with expected, solely visual signs of wear and use; Namely, faded finish (pigment, more precisely) around the edges & of course, creases. That's all.
Inserting the zipper pin into the machine correctly can be slightly fussy but the zipper operates perfectly. I've examined it carefully & it's flawless so I attribute it to this particular brand of zippers. Hardly worth bringing up at all, really.
⚜ MEASUREMENTS ⚜
Size 44. Fits true to size and true to Vanson's sizing.

If this was a 42 I'd be unable to resist. You seem to have a knack for getting the best ones.
