1980s leather batwing jacket - tie dye detailing

If it fitted I'd wear this jacket myself, despite the 'if you can wore it the first time around don't wear it the second'. Puff shouldered/sleeved slightly cropped jacket in a very supple leather Closes with one covered button closure. Has interesting tie-dye leather inserts on the shoulders and sleeves. Jacket has a lightly quilted lining. It is in great vintage condition - the only 'flaw' is that the button could do with a few reinforced stitches.

No size stated. In today's money I would say a UK 10-small 12, US 6-small 8, EU 36-small 44. Measurements laid flat are

• Bust: 21 (please bear in mind it is a batwing so actual bust would be up to 20)
• Waist: 16
• Shoulders 17
• Sleeves: 22
• Length: 23

I am selling a host of other vintatage and designer items at the moment, including John Galliano, Westwood, Dior, Moncler etc. I always combine on multiple items won.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE FOLLOWING REGARDING POSTAGE (PARTICULARLY TO MINIMISE IMPACT IN LIGHT OF THE ONGOING ROYAL MAIL STRIKE) AND TO COMPLY WITH EBAY/PAYPAL POLICIES INSURANCE IS NOW OBLIGATORY.

DOMESTIC CUSTOMERS: Any item that sells for under £39 will be sent Royal Mail 1st Class Recorded. Any item selling for over £39 will only be sent Special Delivery (costs are typically £4.75 - £10 depending on item weight).

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: Any item that sells for under £39 will be sent Royal Mail International Signed For insured for up to £39 at a cost of £3.90. Any item selling for over £39 will be sent Signed For fully insured at a cost of £5.90.

ALL MY ITEMS ARE 100% GENUINE. I CAN'T STAND FAKES - WOULDN'T WEAR THEM SO CERTAINLY WOULDN'T SELL THEM.

PAYMENT STRICTLY DUE WITHIN 5 DAYS.

I am more than happy to combine postage provided items are won and paid for within any 5 day period. If you want to hold off for longer I can still delay posting package to wait for further items but payment for initial items must be paid for.

Now for the small print (thanks for taking the time to read it)..... Please don't bid if you don't agree 

• Post: Due to an increasing number of customers who aren't prepared to pay extra for UK recorded delivery and then hold me responsible for Royal Mail's failures all items will now be sent recorded. This covers you up to £39. If you would like your item guaranteed above this price then item can be sent Special Delivery (typical costs are £5.50 - £10). Sorry about this folks - the huge majority of you are reasonable but some rotten apples have left mould in my basket! International bidders - Royal Mail regular airmail does not included tracking. Insurance is additional - typically between £3.90 and £5.90. PLEASE NOTE THAT I ALWAYS OBTAIN A ROYAL MAIL PROOF OF POSTAGE  AND AM ALWAYS HAPPY TO SEND THIS ON TO YOU IF YOU DOUBT MY VERACITY. MUCH AS I'D LOVE TO I CAN'T CONTROL THE POSTAL SERVICES IN LIVERPOOL, LOS ANGELES OR LISBON.

• Payment: Monies must be received within 5 days of winning bid. Failure to comply with this will result in negative feedback and an ebay no-strike. Sorry to sound so strict, but there are members of the awkward squad who are making it difficult for all you decent ebayers! UK bidders - payment via paypal, postal order or personal cheque. Please allow 5 days bank clearance time if choosing the latter option. International bidders - paypal or international bank transfer in sterling only.

• Feedback I try to describe all attributes (and deficiencies where applicable) as I believe honesty is key. Any problems then do please contact me. Refunds will only be given if item has been grossly misrepresented. Please take a note of all measurements given because I cannot offer refunds on items that don't fit. This is not my business - ebay is a hobby. I hope you will enjoy shopping with me. I will always leave positive feedback for positive bidders (the great majority of you). If you have a couple of negatives don't worry - they are a fact of life.

Pay instantly with your debit or credit card through PayPal.
