Himel Bros. Heron in Black Shinki - Size 40

[Cheech]

Hi folks,
I picked this up second hand in like-new condition. It's in the black oil Shinki (not teacore) and still has the rich new-leather smell! The shoulder measurement is an an inch narrower than I'd like, but the other dimensions fit me well. For reference, I'm 6'1.5" and weigh 185 pounds, with a 35-inch waist and a 41-inch chest. Again, the leather looks new, with no abrasions to my eye. Going by the original owner, this is 2-3 years old.

$1200 gets it to your door in the continental US. If you live elsewhere, feel free to PM me, and I'll seek out shipping options. Thanks!

Pit to pit: 22 inches
Shoulder seam to cuff: 26 inches
Shoulder seam to shoulder seam: 18 inches
Collar seam to hem: 24.5 inches
Waist: 21 inches (partially cinched)

So many great jackets up for sale at the moment. Just bumping this (temporarily) to the top. Perfect for mild to cool weather!

This is really tempting but probably too large for me. Can you post a picture of you wearing it? Thanks

Sure, here are a couple.

Sorry about the duplicate pics. Not sure why that happened!

 

[Mich486]

Thanks a lot for posting the pics. I was hoping it’d looked tighter on you. I can see the shoulders pull a little but the rest looks very good to me. I’m just 5’7” 160lbs (and ideally should be 150lbs) so I’ll likely swim in this, defo need a size down.

Can’t believe nobody picked this up yet, it’s an amazing jacket at a good price. GLWS

 

[Cheech]

Yeah, unfortunately, I imagine this would be far too big for you.

Thanks for the kind words--it is a fantastic jacket!

You got quite a collection going there for you, surprising this hasn't been picked up yet.

 

[Cheech]

Thanks, and I agree. I'm surprised this one hasn't gained more traction.

 

[Jin431]

Yes, that's a great jacket and a great deal at that. If the jacket was my size I'd certainly get that. Good luck with sale!

Amazing jacket. Great shape and very nice leather.
Unfortunately too small for me.

I’m hoping it is still available if I find a new home for the Nine Lives jacket i have listed.
