Here is who it was made for -

 

[tek8080]

I've noticed this is the third time in about a month this jacket has been for sale. I'm guessing because I think you're the first person to list the dang front measurement on it. Hopefully it finds a good home now that people have some reliable measurements.

I have a Columbia in goatskin and it's great leather. Wish my pockets were leather lined like this!

^^ Yep the person I bought it from off ebay had everything but this measurement. He noted it was too large for him.
Just a little longer in the front and 1" more around the waist and it would be staying here...

On Edit - here is a link to some fit photos. As Tek indicates below, I am also 6' 1" tall, 195lbs and wear size 36 waist jeans.
Ideally this would fit a person ~ 5' 10" and 34 waist jeans quite well.

And yes, Langlitz are running ~ 10-12 month wait times presently.

I'm a little over six foot, so the front is a bit too short for my liking as well or I'd be all over this.

For people that's aren't familiar with Langlitz pricing I think this would be about $1300 new? Plus shipping and tax. This is a great deal on a jacket that looks near new.

Plus the current wait for custom jackets is about a year.

The fit isn't terrible, but 1-2 inches more in the front would help the look.

So it is sold?

@Frenchcancan thanks for your interest, I traded this jacket in to Langlitz directly in early July, used as partial trade for one that's being made for me.

Just FYI - the same person who sold this one to me has a much more worn-in version that also appears to be Goatskin on ebay currently. https://www.ebay.com/itm/176021846179?
