About This Jacket:

This is a magnificent example of an early Rough Wear 18091 goatskin A-2. The label has been switched with a different Rough Wear contract, but all the details are that of a RW 18091, and I've seen a number. The goatskin is thin and very durable feeling. The condition is excellent, with only some minor areas of thread coming loose. The knits are original, and the lining is in beautiful condition. Note that the pocket leather is slightly darker than the leather of the body. Also, the surface of the leather experiences the usual lightening from wear, but only slightly.
