RW 27752 original on eBay in shockingly good condition

[mulceber]

What do we think about this? I almost doubt that it's an original. The lining certainly looks old, but the shell is in unbelievable condition - it almost looks like a 5-10 year old ELC or BK.

I doubt a repro would have such curvy stitching along the pockets. Looks good to me.

 

[mulceber]

Yeah, I lean toward it being an original as well, especially since a fraudster wouldn't devote all that energy toward making the interior look good and worn, and then leave the outside looking mostly normal.

Isn't it @Jorgeenriqueaguilera selling his 27752? It really is a dream jacket!

It's a re-dyed original 27752.

Thanks! Yes, that’s mine. 100% original and great cond, pics don’t do justice.

Man, that leather couldn't be in better condition. Good luck with the sale! I suspect you'll be well into 4 figures by the time the buyers are done fighting over it.

 

[Jorgeenriqueaguilera]

Yes, great jacket, leather looks as new as a top repro but just a bit short for me, otherwise I’ll be keeping it.

Looks like quite a good length if worn with high rise strides. Hide is in lovely condition BTW.

 

[mulceber]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well. Slightly short for modern jeans, but perfect for more vintage clothing.

 

[Jorgeenriqueaguilera]

Yes, I agree, it’s not for modern jeans but also it’s a bit tight on my back with the risk of ripping it someday, it’s kinda hard to put it on and take it off for me, I wish it was a couple inches longer!

 

[Micawber]

Would be fine for length with more suitable strides.

What's with the "tradeajacket" handle?

Yes, in my case I have no high rise pants in my closet, and the nickname is pure invention just like everyone’s else on ebay. Thanks for the interest.
