Menlo Jacket

ichaice

Looking for some advice

I have a 38" inch chest and just measured the sleeves on a jacket of mine to be about 24.5" long (top of shoulder to cuff). Would that be a size small in the Menlo? Is it still possible to buy the brown one? If not what would be a fair price for a used one?

Hi ichaice ,
Your prob between s-m I reckon , I'm a 40 inch and I have a m and it's very fitted and snug.
The sleeves are difficult to get right and may require some tailoring which ever size you go for.
These jackets are still highly sort after and range from £400 - £600 (one just sold on ebay for £600) just depends how lucky you get.

I have a spare one for sale at a bargain price and sure you could get it adjutsed , sleeves are 25.5 inches
its dark brown

see my post http://www.ajb007.co.uk/topic/49045/fs-levis-menlo-skyfall-jacket-size-medium/

happy to answer any questions , hope that helps

My Menlo review for Iconic Alternatives discusses sizing and released version differences:

Hope that can be of some help. -{

Thanks for the comments so far, very helpful. How do you measure the shoulder to cuff, do you go straight down or curve the tape around the elbow?

Is it just a case of hoping one of these pops up here or on eBay or can they be bought elsewhere in the U.K.?

I’ve just picked up a Levi’s vintage moto jacket in black. I thought before I decide if I’ll keep it I would check in to see if anyone in the UK had a Skyfall Menlo in a size Small they would consider selling?
