A-1 by The FEW

[CBI]

Super "used" A-1 by THE FEW. Seal HH (I think kind of a special run of HH for this one). Brownish/reddish/purplish knits. Extremely well-made. Love the fit/feel.

John,
Well made for sure! That looks tailor-made for you. Congrats!

Nice looking jacket John.

Is that a 42, or a trim 44?

 

[CBI]

thanks!

Its marked a 44.

 

[John Lever]

Is that the jacket that previously belonged to Bevan and to Chris ?
Very nice BTW.

 

[CBI]

yes it is

 

[Dr H]

Ah! Thought that I recognised it - good score.

 

[John Lever]

Could have been mine once but I turned it down !

 

[Dr H]

Why did you not go for it John? Looks like a peach.
Obviously horsehide, but doesn't look too heavy.

 

[John Lever]

Bevan is a bigger bloke than I am so I assumed that it would be too big. I think it was £500/600 at the time.

 

[Dr H]

Hmmm...
John J and I are a similar build (even down to the arms) so it probably would have been okay for you (although possibly nippy through the shoulders?).
I don't know what they were asking for them originally (scared to ask!), but that seemed to be a fair price.

 

[John Lever]

About £1500 new, the figures I quoted were what it was offered to me secondhand.

 

[Dr H]

I feared that's what they would have been :roll:

 

[John Lever]

Just checked...they are only £1000 plus import costs, so say £1300.
