Wilson Vintage Leather Jacket ~ Excellent Condition
I haven't worn this jacket much in the past few years, so I've decided to let it go to a good home where it will get some use....
This is a vintage Wilson jacket from back in the days when good quality leather products were being manufactured (unlike most of the garbage out there these days). I believe it was made around 1985, or somewhere around there.
It's a heavy duty leather jacket with a nylon liner, and it also has a 'zip in, zip out' Thinsulate thermal insulation liner. Makes it nice as you can leave the Thinsulate liner out until the temperature starts to fall.
This leather jacket is in great condition, no rips, scuffs, and I never had a back patch or other patches on it so there are no 'needle holes' in the leather. I treated it once a year with leather conditioner (Lexol) so the leather is nicely broken in (not stiff) and the leather never dried out which could lead to cracks and other problems. I wore this jacket mainly when 'on foot' and not that often when riding, so it never suffered from the elements you experience when out on the road.
The jacket is a size Large, but it's actual fit is more like some of the newer jackets that are sized as a "XL".... Some actual measurements you might compare with what you currently wear are:
On the back from the top of collar to the bottom of jacket ~ 30"
Top of arm to bottom of arm ~ 26.5"
In the front armpit to armpit ~ 22.5"
(Let me know if you need other measurements).
Like I mentioned, this is a very nice jacket and beats the heck out of more stuff you find these days.
I'll sell it to anyone interested for $85.00 which I think is a very fair price. The jacket is pretty heavy, so I'm not sure how much USPS Priority shipping would be, but it shouldn't be more than $15.00, so I guess you can say that the total would be (at the most) $100.00 shipped Priority to your door.
If anyone is interested let me know..
