About This Jacket:

This horsehide Perry is a great example of their 42-16175-P contract. The jacket is in pretty solid condition, with some wear showing around the arms and stitches from two nametags, but it's otherwise a beautiful jacket. The leather is a shiny russet color, which has aged well. The lining is in superb condition, with some soiling around the neck but otherwise no rips or damage. The cuffs need some darning, but the waistband is beautiful. Note the Conmar which is in great shape. For a size 42, this jacket almost fits me, where the other 42 Perry in this photo collection fits more like a 38.
