Mr Freedom Lawrence Jacket Sunshine Edition. This jacket is beautiful and garners constant compliments, unfortunately i only have gotten to wear 2 times because it is too big for me. These jackets run a bit larger than you'd think from their tagged size. Retails at $1495 if you can find it, they are sold out. Asking $950
Please review measurements below.

Chest: 22.75 in
Length: 24 in
Shoulders: 18.5 in
Sleeve Length: 25.5 in

From Mister Freedom:
* Inspired by 1930’s “Grizzly” type leather jackets, and other vintage American sportswear and outdoor garments, and somewhat by the 1962 film “Lawrence of Arabia”.
* Vegetable tanned leather, full grain cowhide, milled and supple, natural finish and color, about 2-3 Oz weight, sourced in USA.
* Up-cycled vintage Oriental rugs of the Kilim family, with a probable provenance in Pakistan and surrounding regions.
* Lining: 100% cotton brushed flannel with a 1940’s-50’s-inspired vibrant plaid pattern, discharge-printed. Fabric milled in Japan.
* Fully lined with a soft cotton brushed flannel featuring a vintage style discharge-printed plaid pattern.
* Front panels cut from a vintage genuine Oriental Kilim rug.
* Full single panel veg-tan leather back.
* Slash pockets with arrow-head pocket stops.
* Side gussets with adjustable side straps (NOS metal slide buckles)
* Keyhole button holes.
* Corozo ‘Cat Eyes’ wood buttons, backed by vintage-style corozo wood “cat-eyes” buttons.
* Mister Freedom® woven “Sportsman” label.
* American-sourced hides.
* Limited Edition. Each jacket is a one-of-a-kind collectible.
* Made in USA.

The Lawrence Jacket blends antique oriental textiles with our classic leather jacket pattern to create a new leather garment à la MF®.

We carefully selected candidates of flat-woven Kilim rugs from the first half of the 20th century. Each rug was hand-picked for its attractive geometric motifs, vintage appeal, fine color combination, unique hand-woven imperfections, occasional period hand-repairs and overall natural patina.

Our veg-tan leather is quite light sensitive, and the natural-color hide will soon start ‘tanning’ when exposed to sunlight. Within the same leather grade, there are no two hides alike, resulting in each jacket having its own character, specificity, feel and natural ‘imperfections’.

Expect stains, water marks, natural grease, scratches, patina and creases. All this adds to the character of a leather garment. The jacket’s journey will be yours and each nick a memory.

I question the wisdom of relisting this at the same price it failed to sell at for over a year, but it's a cool jacket. Glws

No, but I post items in the classified and didn't know that affords us the opportunity to have an outside source who is not interested in purchasing the item unsolicited advice and an appraisal.

LITERALLY from MK's stickied post at the top of the forum.

"Please DO NOT blame the Lounge or the Classified Section or the "cheapskate members" if your item doesn't sell or generate interest. Also, be willing to accept suggestions from other members who may ask you to post better pictures, for example, or who may say outright that your item is not valuable and you should give up trying to command top dollar."

Now you know.

If a suggestion is given, it's in the interest of helping the seller move their item. I don't think anybody enjoys having their jacket sit on classifieds for over a year, bumping every month.

It's a cool jacket! Glws.
