MINT gray schott 44L

[arsey]

I've held onto this jacket for a while thinking I could bulk up and fit it, but need the dollars instead. I've got the same jacket but in black anyhow

Bought unworn, and stayed unworn. Went from tim -> another member -> me. Here's the lowdown on it, via Tim's schott sleuthing:

"The jacket appears to be Grey in color. We made this jacket style #656L (long) in the Steerhide color Grey in 1981. This was the only year we offered this style in the grey color in a long size.

This is the only year I can find that we made the color grey in this style in steerhide leather. In 1986 we did make a 556 which was the same style but in Top Grain cowhide and we did not make it in long sizes. Although I cannot tell you how many jackets were made in the 656L color grey, I know it would not be a large amount.

We always make less long sizes then a regular size in any style and the color grey would also limit the amount as black if the popular color. If I had to make a educated guess, based on one year production of the jacket I would estimate arround 200 pcs. for a total of all sizes made. Gail"

Just asking what I paid, $175 shipped. I've also got it up on craigslist, so if it goes there first then its gone

Wish I'd gained weight back so I could buy it back from you! Neat to see it again. A rare bird to be sure.

What type of inner lining? any pics of inside and back? whats the length of arm/seams?

Here's the back & inside. The fleece (I guess?) lining zips out, and the inside is a neat blue color. Don't have a measuring tape handy, will take those measurements when I get a chance.

Somewhere out there is a gray 42, or so I keep telling myself. The race is on!
