DESCRIPTION This jacket was produced in the 1940s and is of Swedish origin. It was made by Bröderna Perssons Skinn och Pälsvaru AB in Malung. Malung was Sweden's centre for leather production during the first half of the 20th century. The jacket has a lovely mid-brown tone, which is easy to pair with various outfits. It is single-breasted with a total of four buttons. It features four front pockets: two lower diagonal pockets and two vertical chest-height pockets with flaps and button closures. The jacket is belted at the waist at the front, and has elastic in the back. It also has shoulder epaulets. The jacket is fully lined with a checkered fabric made from 100% wool. These types of jackets were marketed as sports jackets, and they offer good mobility when worn. The condition is exceptionally good; the leather is incredibly soft and smooth, making it almost look brand new. The lining is also in excellent condition, and the jacket has likely been very sparingly used, if at all. Please have a look at the photos and form your own opinion regarding its condition. SIZE The size corresponds to a modern EU 52-54 (US/UK 42-44). As always with this type of jacket, what you wear underneath makes a significant difference to the fit.
