How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Sadly a catch and release for me this Vintage Lesco as I made the same mistake again that I didn't check the body length (too short for me again like the Vanek).
Can be found in Classifieds now and I'm open for offers hoping that I find someone whom it fits:

Too bad it doesn't fit you well, hope you'll sell it fast

I bought this jacket second hand but it was listed as 'new without tags'. Considering how easy this jacket picks up scratches, I really think it has never been worn.

It's a t-shirt only fit. The sleeves are narrow and the armholes are really high. I can see why people would size up with this fit. But for me personally, I think sizing up would make it look blousy. I'm 100% happy with the fit of the 42, which is my regular size. I'll post some fitpics later this week.
The capeskin from the premium manufacturers is great. Jacket looks in amazing shape.

Nice one, Marc! I thought you would be happy with a 42, considering you like your jackets short and trim. Fit pix eagerly awaited. Just cannot go wrong with ELC.

Oh man, what a gem. It's absolutely beautiful.

I've only once seen photo's of one of these before, mine looks to be in 10x better condition.

It’s immaculate. Almost seems unworn. Lining is absolutely museum quality MINT. I’ve been staring at it. Like a time capsule in a way. I’m shocked there wasn’t more of a fight put up for it. You did well, very well.

These are the pics the seller sent to me. I assumed the lining must have been replaced at some point in time. It can't be this good.

It’s that good and it’s OG. Not a replacement t from what I can tell. If it’s a replacement it was replaced by Wards. This fabric is extinct.
