FREE Prince Charlie jacket for a short bloke.

**Arlen** · 24th August 08, 02:49 PM

I'm putting this on here rather than on the for sale section because A: It's free and B: it's more likely to get noticed here.
Mods, please do move it if this is an issue.

I'm moving to America in just a few weeks and it's time to accept that my old prince Charlie no longer fits. So I am offering it for free to anyone it will fit. All I am asking is that you pay the postage.
My shoulders are just too big for it, now, and I have grown a few inches since I bought it.
On to the specs:

It's 100% wool and made by Moss Bros. I am usually a 38 chest but I would say it goes from 36-38. Length wise it's a short. (From the top of the collar to the bottom of the front points it's 23.4")

I'll be honest, it has three buttons missing on the back and some small moth holes in the internal lining. (These can't be seen when you wear it.) The buttons can be bought cheaply on Ebay and the moth holes could be sewn up.

Pictures are below.
So, if anyone is interested, PM me.

Yeah!! I presume you have sorted out all the issues with INS. I know Dianne will be overjoyed - it's been a long separation for you both.

Best Wishes,

Brian

I hope he has, as we are expecting to see them both for dinner here in San Jose on October 30th!

Glad you've got it all sorted Arlen, and quite a generous offer I'm sure it will make someone happy.

Congratulations! That is going to make someone a very nice PC, too bad I'm a 44-46 chest, and 6"4" tall. The story of my life.

Thanks for all the congratulations, guys.
Yes, it's all sorted. I leave in a little over two weeks and I am thrilled.
(Plus, I have two new Kilts to jones for!!!)

The jacket is now taken and about to get sent off!
