Question about Avirex jackets + price

[mikeybites]

Hi, I'm new here but I've been doing some looking around and I'm thinking this is the best place for my questions.
I might buy this Avirex jacket but I have a few questions first.

1. Do you guys think it will fit me? I'm 5'4, pretty thin, have a long torso and my shoulders are 19-20 inches. The jacket is 24" long, 24" sleeves, 22" pit to pit, and has 23" shoulders which I'm worried about. I feel like the shoulders might be too big for me or look too baggy/sloppy considering the sleeves are Already quite long. Im just afraid I'll buy it and it won't fit, it'll be a waste, especially because I've been searching for a good leather bomber for a long time, I just don't have the time to go to a thrift store and see everything in person/try it on.

2. I've seen some of these jackets with a picture of a woman, kind of like a pin up model, on the inside. Does it have any significance? Why is it there?

3. Is this thing worth $500? I was sent an offer today for around $480 but still, is it worth that much? Has some tears on the inside and I know how to sew so I can fix that pretty easily, but that's it.

Thank you! Here are photos

Those jackets were popular in the 80s. They were called "bombers" jackets. Back then, that was the oversize look. At 500 dollars is expensive in my view. Try a nice Gibson and Barnes also called flight suit ltd-Wild blue yonder. At your body dimensions, a size 36 will work for you. They run 1.5 sizes big, but they are a good sub $200 entry a-2/g1 type jackets
