Default First Gear Navigator LEATHER Jacket 2XL

Hey Guys...I have had this very nice leather jacket hanging in my closet for years. I don't think First Gear even makes leather jackets any more.

This is a very well made med-weight retro looking tab collar with lots of pockets. It was made in this distressed look you see and was worn very little.

It is a First Gear Navigator Leather motorcycle jacket. I can't find any for sale online but it was NOT a cheap coat back when I bought it. It's probably 9-10 years old and has not been worn at all in the past 7. When I did wear it, it was VERY little. I am 6'1" and it is the perfect length w/ longer arms as a correct motorcycle jacket should have.

It is in excellent condition. However, the little tab that would be used to loop through your belt is torn-off and one of the little leather vent zipper pulls on the back is missing. I took good pictures of those things.

I have gone back-and-forth about whether to sell this one or not for the past couple of years, but I think it's time (plus my damn gut it too big for it to fit anyway nowadays!).

Similar leather jackets I could find (but nowhere near as cool) appear to sell new from $500+ down to $350 or so. Ebay has some used up there for $150 - $200 but again not in this good condition.

$175 shipped...how's that?

Thanks.

Default Firstgear Navigator?

Hi. I know this is an old post. I was just wondering about that Firstgear jacket you sold. Are you sure the model name was "Navigator?" When I search for that name, another Firstgear jacket comes up, which is more of a bomber-style. I'm curious because I have the same jacket as yours, and I LOVE it, but it's literally starting to fall apart, and I want to try to find another used one. Thanks!

By the way, if anyone else is a fan of this jacket, Milwaukee Leather made what's almost a carbon copy of it, and it's on clearance for $159. They only have a few left, I think. It's called the "Street Hunter." I just ordered one, but I still want to find another Firstgear if I can. http://www.milwaukeemotorcycleclothi...er-jacket.html

You're right, this is an old post and the jacket is long gone. I don't recall, but knowing me, I probably made sure it was the right model name before selling it. I bought it a long time ago (early 2000's) and who knows what has happened with the company and/or its model names.

Love my Langlitz!!

Good luck.
