Curly fleece take 2, a lucky break with Eastman

[John Lever]

I found this one last week. It had been missed by seemingly everyone on ebay.
I love UK only listings.
It is totally brand new, the old story of worn only once is apparently true in this case. I think this is a half way house type of jacket that was made before the full broken grain only came into force. The wool is curly and very cream. The outer has the wrinkled broken grain type creases but it is gloss. It even has a brass Talon zip !!
A much better combination.
Not bad for £300

Not only has Watashi the God of Flight Jackets smiled upon you John giving you that nice jacket at a very good price but your seller actually delivered it as well. I once bought something on the auction unfortunately I didn't even get the box with the rock in it.

Buy yourself a Lottery Ticket man !

Damn, John...you are the master of sheepskin! That jacket looks head and shoulders above the broken grain B-3 that you sold recently. Good catch!

It was an auction for 7 days and had a start of £150. On the last day [ 2 bids £165] the seller changed it to a BIN. Must have got cold feet.
