  Also, I'm 6'1" 175 with a 33in waist. I know there was some differences in the jackets based on season so it stands to reason I might be able to fit into a large depending on the measurements.

  I have a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle 15-year old bourbon for trade to get this one done. The Wall Street Journal calls it the bourbon so popular even billionaires can't find it. http://blogs.wsj.com/corporate-intelligence/2013/07/08/meet-the-bourbon-so-popular-even-billionaires-cant-find-a-bottle/
  
  If this is a motivator to find a screen accurate correct season Levis Menlo in size medium hit me up. I'm on the search. Cheers!

  A large will be far to big, I'm 6ft with a 34 waist and have the jacket in small and medium and can fit the small and have a 39 inch chest. But if wanted to wear anything under it I would need the medium.

  Mr porter have them in black. It's says suede jacket but the details say its sheepskin.
  May be the closest you can get at the moment. £312

  Thanks, Tardis. -- I may end up going that route, but have been holding out hope for a brown.
  
  On that end if anyone is in need of a Large I have been talking to a nice gentleman in California who has a beautifully distressed SA brown jacket. I can supply contact information. Sadly the jacket is too big for me.
  
  I'm still searching for the jacket in a medium brown.

  Be careful about the sizes. I'm 5' 5.5" and bought a Small size from Mr Porter this time last year and it was way too small for me. It looked like a cropped top that young girls wear.
  
  I think that a lot of Small sizes were returned at the same time because I was told that there was a big waiting list for the Mediums because so many people were trying to exchange from Small to Medium.
  
  I also bought a Billy Reid peacoat in Medium and if anything it's a bit too loose on me.

  Good to know. I'll make sure and get detailed measurements. Thanks for the help!

  This jacket is not a "long" jacket by any means. It's supposed to fit short and end right at the belt line. It's based on a 1930's leather jacket from Levi's archive; in the 1930's waist lines on pants were much higher.

  I have a brown in Medium I bought from Mr. Porter last year - original tag attached. Just curious as to what someone might be offering?

  A few people on here would like one but Colonel Duke started this thread so send him a PM and ask him what he is willing to pay.

  Thanks guys, sorry I fell off here, but I thought I had one lined up through another member, but he's reconsidering at the moment.
  
  SO, I'm still looking for a screen accurate size medium jacket from the 2012 batch. If someone is ready to part with one I'm ready to buy one and have cash. Cheers, N.

  I would also be interested in buying a small from the 2012 release which was purchased from Peggs and son to orchestrate a trade for a medium

  Greetings all - I'm just trying to gauge interest - I have a medium from Mr. Porter which was bought in December of 2013 if anyone is interested in making an offer. It has never been worn - only tried on - and still has the Levis tag attached. I bought the black one recently and just prefer that one. Drop me a PM if interested!
