Ok, so here's the story on this jacket. Apparently it was made for a Schott X True Religion collaboration that for whatever reason ended up not happening. I included a link to the Schott Forum where they confirm this.

They Schott representative states that only sample prototypes were made in 2012 and never went past that stage. She compares it to the #660 in style and lining, BUT I think the style is more in line with the Restoration Hardware jacket. It has a one piece back with no seam, no hand warmer pockets, and the front bottom fans out instead of straight down. I purchased this in HIGH HOPES that it would fit, but it's too tight and short. I am hoping this sells so I can use the funds to buy Monitor's jacket. HELP FUND MY PURCHASE of MONITOR'S Cafe RACER!!!
Here are the measurements taken to the best of my ability while the jacket is zipped up and laying flat:
Pit to Pit: 21 inches
Shoulder seam to shoulder seam: 17 inches
Back length from collar seam to end of jacket NOT including collar: 25.5 inches
Arm length from shoulder seam to end of sleeve: 27 inches (please see picture for how I measured)
Asking $550.00 for what could be a one of kind jacket!
