trade or sell: LVC 1870s Triple-pleat blouse size L

[illumin8em]

The size L Triple Pleat fits like XL. I unexpectedly stumbled across an unworn one couple weeks ago, but it is way too big. hoping maybe to trade. Article on the finding of the original http://loomstate.blogspot.com/2012/02/make-mine-triple-levis-1874-triple.html

-Anyone have a Medium they would trade for a Large?
-Or trades plus $. I am 10.5-11 in boots, about size 33 in pants, and M-L in jackets.
-If not, I hope to get close to what I paid ($425 shipped)

24" pit to pit
19 1/8" shoulders seam to seam
24 3/4" shoulder seam to end of sleeve
24 3/4" top to bottom

Have you tried soaking it for an hour? Turn it inside out and neatly fold it in a tub of water. Place a heavy glass pitcher or container to hold it down. This jacket is made of selvedge and will shrink when wet. I used this trick on my XL Levi's 1935 jacket and shrunk it. If you can't sell this item for an acceptable amount, you may want to try this.

i appreciate the advice, but I do not want to do that to this jacket. It is a very rare piece, and I would rather it go to someone who can fit it.
