SCHOTT PERFECTO ONE STAR HORSEHIDE CIRCA 1950’s

[rossowheels]

In fabulous vintage condition, this rare black label horsehide Perfecto has been hanging in my closet for several years, having imported it from Global Rakuten in Japan (see attached). Considering it’s age, the jacket is in remarkably good condition and has had some restoration, as you would expect, over the years.

I have decided to seek offers for the jacket as I have several and feel that it’s time for someone else to enjoy.

Sensible offers invited circa US$3,500

This reminds me of the Mstyero post recently. I sent a PM asking for more info on price range, never got an answer...

Bummed to not be able to make a decision without some type of price range.

Thanks and the receipt is with the original post. On top of that I paid import charges (VAT) and restoration costs carried out (specialist cleaning and the main zip replaced like for like). Although I have spent circa £3k I don’t expect it to fetch that much and any reasonable offer will be seriously considered.

3000 UKP (the amount rossowheels spent; I believe he is asking less) is around $3,850, yes?

Just noting this for people asking about the price!

You're going to have to find a serious collector in order to fetch anything near this amount. Not saying the jacket isn't worth the amount you're asking 'cause it is, especially considering people are still willing to drop $2K+ on any old, rotten, crumbling Buco while this perfection of a jacket is essentially as mint as it gets, not to mention that these are extremely rare, but... Why not give it a spin on Rakuten? I'm willing to bet it'll end up back in Japan.

Good luck with the sale, dude. While not as pricey as vintage cars and watches, leather jackets definitely ain’t a poor man’s hobby!!

Well, they might be a poor man's hobby after you have a few...!

I rescued the jacket from Rakuten and would prefer to see it in the hands of a collector rather than a retailer
