Heh, is it any more ridiculous than the $1.5K, how much these usually sell on eBay? Would you have said you really scored one cheap if you paid $800 for it? All these numbers are ridiculous. It's an old, crusty, $50 jacket at best so you can ask - And pay - for it whatever you want. RRL knows anyone walking into their store is capable of dropping that kinda cash on a leather jacket so I've no beef with this price tag.

Next to some generic €5k Purple Label jacket €3.5k suddenly looks like a bargain.

Also a hassle to get something equally interesting for the shop. (That could be a fun job)

Seeing your new fit Buco and having had the chance to try one on myself a few days ago makes me really want one - must resist the temptation!

Definitely a lot better than the old versions, which are/were just too damn tight - unrealistically so, having owned an OG 50s Buco , I can tell you that this new version is much more accurate in terms of proportion, fit and comfort. The 44 I tried on was actually sized like I would expect a 44 to be - the older version in that size I couldnt even think of zipping upHow did it fit you?

I was in doubt about sizing in the beginning. If it would fit a little big, but it seems very true to size. I’m 1.80cm with a 98cm chest. I’m happy I chose a size 40. It’s definitely a cool jacket and very accurate reproduction imo.

Question to you all:
Would you recommend a silver-grey Nappa leather jacket or not? Could it get an ugly patina or something, after years?

Expensive, so expensive but damn it does look great on you. Is it as immaculate as the pictures portray?
If you want to justify it, just imagine all of the people that walk in and drop $7,500 or more on a Saint Laurent or Tom Ford jacket.
