I know it's a vintage jacket but this is surely beyond stupid.

Bloody hell - not my size - WTF ??? :bugga:
I hope the seller isn`t banking on ever seeing the money..... :whistling:
If it had been worn by Joey Dunlop, perhaps, but just a normal jacket - hell no..
More likely to have been worn by one of the Village People :facepalm:
Checked it out again just now. WTF is going on this is unbelievable over £7,000 now with new bidders added😳😳😳
Intrigued - so i`ve looked into this a little more - it appears that the Lewis Leathers Aviakit gear is seriously sought after......lots on the market for over £1000. Wish i`d not got rid of my black jacket now - I gave it to a mate in the early `80`s, together with a Barbour coat, when he bought my T500 off me, FFS!
Come to think of it, what was i thinking ?!! - everything about that `package` is now worth a fortune. My blue T500M was bog standard, in fantastic condition and i let the whole lot go for £300 in our local pub :facepalm:........
........the pub in question was `The Bull` in Newport Pagnell (yep, virtually next door to Aston Martins original factory), and the pints to blame were Abbot Ale. Bugger :rolleyes:!
Abbot Ale! That would explain many a mistake! Proper pint of beer 🍺
Oh yeah forgot to say. It may be sought after and many Lewis Avatar items are very expensive but £7,000 for a leather jacket without any apparent history or providence? I think there is definitely something about this jacket that has to be special, can't for the life of me work it out though🤔
Funny Kiwi. 👍. Would like to know why 12 g bid, load of crap im thinking.
It's too small for me.
It wouldn't match my eyes.
I have a Mascot jacket from early eighties era, how much would it be worth. The only problem with it is that it shrunk obviously with age.
It's sold for £8,218 😳😳😳 Perhaps it was once owned by Elvis!
Wow, do you reckon it was for real or fake auction. Just ridiculous.
Seemed like genuine bidders in the end. How you can justify spending that on a jacket is beyond me.
Wish it was my jacket :whistling:

Probably bought by Lewis Leathers.
