Fresh Prince Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 I hope someone finds these great I do but have to pass on the opportunity. Gray Mondo and Blue RL ones are looking especially good. The Gray one seems bit wider for a 38 than you would expect for 38, eg. 20in underarm vs 23in, but I guess that was either part of style to make it more roomy or it'd be perfect for someone wider.

Dadrian Posted May 4, 2019 Report Share Posted May 4, 2019 GREAT jackets! The Cerruti is my favorite. GLWTSs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BunMVO Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I've seen the Mondo one was well, that one is very cool but too big for me. Otherwise I'd probably jump on it. I wish there more Miami Vice blazers for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattlehead Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 The Cerruti is awesome, gives me season 4 vibes. Too bad I'm a size 46! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Falcone Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Great stuff! But on me these would be like that Chris Farley bit; “Big guy, little jacket.” If I could even get into one. I’m a 48 jacket, 36/34 pants. Never find cool vintage in my size... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way I would fit in your Maserati either! True story! That car is definitely made for short-legged, long-armed Italians! I’m 6’ 0”, and I could never take a long trip in it, but I would never want to (miles=depreciation). Extremely roomy inside for passengers, though!

I've heard that Italian cars have short leg room and long arm reach to the steering wheel. Never understood why. I have long legs so I'm out. I also have quite wide shoulders (which accounts for part of the jacket size) but that probably wouldn't be a problem in your car, though it's a pain in the @ss on airlines. There are ways to cram into seats with less legroom or even headroom, at least briefly. How do you narrow your shoulders? Several years ago a guy on a packed flight from San Francisco to LA next to me complained that my shoulders were in part of his seat space. His tiny wife was at the window and I was at the aisle so I suggested they might switch and be more comfortable. She ratted him out in two seconds saying he was too scared to sit by the window! He didn't say much for the rest of the flight. I did think of one Maserati that would fit me. Don't know if you're aware, but Maserati briefly made motorcycles. A friend of my dad had one when I was growing up. From the 50's I think. No head room problems there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunMVO Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Men-s-GIANNI-VERSACE-100-Wool-Blazer-Jacket-Italy-SZ-EU-50-US-40-R-/223505968862?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&nma=true&si=P8v6SYVwXdlQLsYBq9kslfVgqeA%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc Check this out. What a beautiful piece. Thanks to Dadrian for showing this to me, I was able to get a very Vicey Gianni Versace obviously vintage blazer at a low price. I have been watching this since February and only finally caved after it was relisted countless times. I don't know why it wasn't bought, maybe the '80s pattern is too loud for most people? Anyway, I saw the measurements and was a little afraid it might be too large, and it very well may be. However, the tagged size is my size, even though the measurements are a bit off of what I normally wear. I'm taking a chance on this one. But I'm crazy for those retro patterns and worst case scenario, I can sell it to someone else if it is just too big on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 I saw that someone bid and won. I was hoping it was you @pmconroy. Congrats! Can’t wait to see the pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBustedFlush Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Nobody's commented on the teal, but aside from the fact that the pockets aren't patch pockets, wouldn't you say it fits the aesthetic well? A little tailoring and it's a solid work horse summer jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
