I just received a 35th consortium leather jacket in size XL, but unfortunately I think it's just a little too big for me (I'm about 6'1 / 186 centimeters tall, regular build). The jacket looks and feels brand new and has only been worn a couple of times (by the previous owner, not me).

If you have the same height as me but are larger build or just like your clothes a bit big or baggy this would still be the size you'd want and of course if you're taller this would fit too (I remember another SSDB member being around 6'4 having the same jacket in size XL too).

Anyway, what I really want is to trade it for a size L if possible, but I would also consider trading it for any pair of these consortiums in a UK 11:

Footpatrols
NBHDs
UNDFTDs
Tates

If none of the above is possible I would also consider selling it. Please feel free to send me a pm or drop me an email: [email protected]

cheers!

T'was me, & it fits my 6'4 frame a treat!

it was you indeed mate and I bet it fits you like a glove!



I've been trying mine on a couple of more times and it's really not too bad after all I think, but my first thought was that it was way to big because it didn't fit like I was expecting it to. A size large would probably fit me just a little better, but I'll definitely hang on to this one unless someone makes me an offer I can't refuse...LOL... this jacket is wicked!!!

For those who's not familiar with the jacket it's limited to 350 pieces and made of extremely soft leather. Very light weight for a leather jacket too. I still haven't got myself a digicam yet but here are some links to a few recent eBay auctions with pics (not my auctions or pics):

Ill swap you a body part?

Name it, its yours

35th Jacket

I need to rob a bank....

What an idiot price to be asking.
Tool.

I've seen them sell for ?600-800 (check the links in my previous post), but the going rate seem to be more like ?300-400 for these.

Asking for ?1000 is taking the piss.

By the way, I'm still considering selling mine, so if anyone's interested just let me know. I still haven't worn it as I think it's a little too big, but I'm seriously considering taking it to a tailor and having it 'adjusted' as it's mainly the length of the sleeves that's bothering me.

Ideally I would still prefer trading it for a size L though, but I doubt it's gonna happen...

I was considering it but if you is 6ft something and the sleeves are too long for you, it'd look mental on me.

how tall are you Pureski? If you're 6 feet or less I would definitely think it's too big, but if you're the same height as me it might fit you fine. It's all about flavour I guess, I'm just not too keen on the baggy style anymore - unless were talking jeans of course, jeans can never be too baggy...LOL...

Anyway, if I took the jacket to a tailor I would probably have him take off 2 inches of the sleeves, that's it really (I know, I'm just being picky).

The guy who originally sold it told me he was 6'1 and large build, and he said the jacket fit him fine, so that might make a difference too.

Blah blah blah, don't know if the above is any help at all...LOL...

Coni would have you believe otherwise but I'm pretty much 6 ft and I'm quite large I guess.
I'm definitely tempted to try it.
I'll have to find one and see what's it like.

LIES !

Your only a couple of inches taller than me

short arse !

Balderdash !
I'm so nearly 6ft it's just not worth mentioning.
You're the short arse, 5ft 8 indeed, utter rhoobarb, you is more like 5ft 2 and a half.

Your like 5ft 10 thats not near 6ft at all

I just measurised myself in socks and I am 5ft 11 and a half.
So nuuuuuuur nuuur na nuuuur nuuuur !!
