FSOT: Colimbo M422a/G1 Battery Park Navigator 42, Colimbo Pathfinder 42

[gfarina55]

Tag size 42. Soft and beautifully textured goatskin, mouton collar. This is a wonderful 40’s style M422a/G1 from Colimbo, the company started by Real McCoy's vets that is making some of the nicest vintage-inspired clothing in Japan. Slight wear around the zipper, otherwise near-new condition. Retailed for close to $2K in Japan, asking $700.

• Shoulder: 18”
• P2P: 21”
• Sleeve: 26” including knits
• Collar seam to end of knits on the back: 26”

If you are looking for a G1/M422 that is just a bit slimmer and longer than a vintage one, this is a great choice. Keep in mind these also wear a bit larger than the measurements suggest because of the action back.

Colimbo Pathfinder Serge Jacket (A-1 style, please excuse the error in the title of this post.) size 42 $275
Tag size 42. I tried this on in the Jelado shop in Tokyo and couldn’t resist the material and the incredible details of this jacket. The serge drapes wonderfully and you really have to see this in person to appreciate the quality and details.

Shoulder: 19”
P2P: 22”
Sleeve: 24.5-25”
Collar seam to bottom on the back: 26”

Trades for other leather jackets considered. I'm particularly interested in J-100, A-2, D-1, and "Californian" styles in similar or slightly bigger measurements.

I really dig the pathfinder and wish it was a 40. Love Colimbo stuff.

Thx Colin G, me too. Both of these jackets are amazing, and the Pathfinder just sold.

Pathfinder is sold, but still hoping to find a home for the G1. Trades ideas welcome....looking for a HH Aero 42ish.

Thought I'd bump this again. Some nibbles but it's still here.

Almost had the 55J14 sold, but it's still here. FYI I've owned a couple RMC G1s and this Colimbo version is as nice if not nicer.
