    Visvim varsity made with all Italian veg tanned leather. Superb construction and materials.
    Fits a size 3 Large or a slim 4 XL in visvim sizing. No signs of wear besides small knick on the shoulder (easy repair) less than 1 inch/2.5cm pictured.

    Retailed for almost double this price.
    Hiroki personally wore this piece for years. You can see pictures of how it patinas online.

    Asking 2400 usd

  2. Crazy how?

    I live in the middle of BFE and wouldn't trust anyone around here to work on a piece of art like this. Plus, this isn't something I would want to be sending back and forth in the mail getting fixed by someone who's internet reputation I'm relying on. If you bought this you would want to bring this by hand to someone you knew was good.

     

    Secondly, it's a very, very fine piece of italian leather DESIGNED to take a beating and patina with time. Laying on almost new carpet from an unused guest room for a short moment  isn't going to do anything at all to the leather. I just wanted to see if I could show the depth of the leather better from a different angle.

     

    Thanks for trying to look cool though; if you weren't it would have taken less than 20 seconds to send your comments via pm like you had some class and were trying to legit help me out. Instead you junk up my thread and make yourself look like a jealous hater, good one.

    Also, if you have ever seen the prices on visvim's really high end stuff they don't sell outside of F.I.L. and shows you would know "dishing out" 2500 for a piece like this is about half of what you would expect to pay for a jacket like this. Probably less than half seeing as this is ~2 years old and Visvim's pricing has and probably will keep going up.

  3. Anybody have any thoughts on the John Lofgren engineers in CXL vs. the new Badalassi leather ones? I know CXL, but Badalassi is an unknown entity for me. What are the relative merits of each?

    Anyone? I'm looking at a pair of Lofgrens and wondering about the differences in leather.

    Also, any pictures of some well worn in ones? I think billy's are his newest pair (out of his 3, bastard :D ).

  4. Trying to sell off my FIL Varsity. Amazing leather and impeccable craftmanship, Absolutely stunning in real life. One of Visvims best ever! Hiroki loves this jacket and if you email visvim they will send you pics of his amazingly broken in one. He went to Italy to choose this leather himself. They haven't made anything like it since.

     

    Large fits tts, 9.9/10 condition. Still have protector bag and hanger.

    Looking for $2600 usd or REALISTIC OFFERS.

    Originally about $3200 usd + proxy and shipping

     

    Union is selling an inferior (IMHO because of the patina it will develop) suede version for $4,320!
     

    Color is a bit dark in pics.
