This was previously a biker’s cut. The leather and the vest itself are in amazing condition, however, it did have patches and pins previously. This would not be an issue if you intended to use it for the same purpose, as new patches would cover the areas the old patches were. No discoloration, only stitch lines. All patches previously were applied by a seamstress and were NOT glued on. All patches were removed by a seamstress at the hem and to no additional damage to the leather. Button front, braided sides for maximum custom fit. Brand new in this size, this vest still currently retails for $215 on the HD website.
