Is this legit? Freewheelers N-1 deck jacket

[Pandakill]

Hello, anyone have insight on whether this is a legit Freewheelers jacket or not? I love the look of it, but I can’t find much info on it and I’ve been burned by eBay before. Thank you!

Is there something about this jacket that raises your suspicions? If not, I would call it good to go. The seller has 462 feed backs with a rating of 100%.

I recently got a bape hoodie from another eBay seller with great reviews that turned out to be fake. So I was just hoping for some first hand experience with this seller or knowledge of this specific jacket. Thanks.

Here is the link to the Deck Jackets thread. Might be something of interest to you in there. With all of the tags on that jacket, I doubt it is a fake. If so, someone has gone to great lengths to present it as authentic.

The Deck Jacket thread.

Ok folks lets talk about deck jackets. I've been on the deck jacket journey for around 7 years, and I've pitched in my thoughts on more than a few threads here. But it would be good to pull our resources and have a ongoing discussion about brands, fits and of course the history of this...

Seller is a reseller. He does not have the item. The item is being sold on some Japanese site by the actual owner. If you make a bid on ebay, he will turn around and bid it on the Japanese sites. In this case, I think it is Yahoo Auction JP

I have a Freewheelers N-1 but has a completely different tag. In fact, it doesn't mention Freewheelers anywhere on the jacket but it did come with Freewheelers labels etc. I bought it from Son of a Stag, see below.

I imagine Freewheelers N-1 without buttoned pockets. But I don't know if there is a new or was an old version with buttoned pockets.

It is a real new version N-1 from FW. It is just that the seller is a reseller who doesn't own the actual jacket. It is a new version made by FW with new thermal interlining materials under the alpaca lining, making it warmer I guess.
