Description: Here's something ultra rare for all you music fans and bands who recorded at Mediasound in the 70s and 80s Vintage 80s Mediasound Recording Studio NYC Varsity Jacket with Red Leather Sleeves and Wool body Has logo embroidered on chest. Sleeves zip off and this forms a vest. I worked at Media as an engineer from 1978 to 1988 when it sadly closed. If you know you know this was the top recording studio for many punk era bands and early bands and musicians that are historic superstars today - , Lou Reed, Blondie, David Bowie, Rolling Stones, Ramones, Springsteen, to only name a few!! If this jacket could talk!! I was given this jacket by a famous client of Mediasound who I cannot name publicly because he still is well known today. Will tell the buyer privately who it was. Size listed is Medium but it fits roomy - This is mine and I was a Large and it fit me so see measurements. My son is 6 foot and an XL and he is wearing this jacket in the last pic and it fits but snug on the shoulders Well made by Identity INC of NYC Of course I wore it to death. The only thing I can say is the outside does not look too bad with staining on the leather sleeves, it looks awesome like this for the right wearer. And kinda very punk authentic! The inner lining shows edge wear everywhere. The pockets are still good and usable with no rips. The cuffs are fine. The Jacket is very well made and will last. I am now an extra large and i hope to pass it on to someone who will cherish it the way I did being lucky enough to work at Media during its heyday. Outside: very Good. nicks and scuffs to leather. (see pictures) Liner: Good- edge and seam wear (see pictures) Size: M/L (SEE MEASUREMENTS) (Sizes vary between brands and eras, so please use the measurements below for a better gauge of actual size.) Measurements (measured flat) Chest (armpit to armpit): 23" Shoulder (should to shoulder): 21.5" Sleeve (shoulder to cuff): 24" Length (top of collar to hem): 27" Very heavy so pricey to ship.
