Wow, that one's in practically mint condition!

 

[Chandler]

BIN!

Yeah, the older navies are starting to climb.

 

[Erwin]

Indeed, also in a more desirable size... hopefully, this jacket can be used for the next few decades

 

[Chandler]

Note the ubiquitous white paint smudge on the back under the collar. Very authentic.

Interesting proximity to the stencil, too.

Sweet looking G1 with a great looking mouton collar. It’s going to need a zip replacement but the rest of the jacket looks damn nice .

Trying not to bid on this… import and shipping would be painful. Interesting discovery (for me, of no interest to anyone else…) is that I lost weight in places that I did not think I have weight so my actual size is 3/4 - 1 inch less in chest so… maybe some of these original 44s are a good fit now…

Sold ?

 

[mulceber]

Oof, $385. Bad time of year to be selling jackets?

 

[Erwin]

Great time for buyers

It says $700, not $385!! Agree, very nice G1.

$700 was the asking price. It didn't sell, it was re-listed, and ultimately sold for $385: https://www.ebay.com/itm/364289797715

More originals seems to be available online lately. So it may affect the asking price that will ultimately be revised to reflect the market. And that's also the case for other types of jackets.
It definitely is a good time for USN jacket enthusiasts.
