    Check the following measurements, not just the size on the label.  It is to your advantage to be aware of the measurements, not just the size on the label.  All returns will be at your own expense...that means I don't pay for, or refund, any shipping.  When in doubt, buy the next size up.
    In my opinion these jackets
    run small
    , although long in the arms.  Please compare your size (your best fitting shirt or jacket) to the following measurements.  I have given many different measurements to insure the proper fit!

    Description:
    The
    Hunting World
    jacket you are bidding on is a
    BROWN
    Size 40 with Epaulet Shoulders.
    The jacket photographed is
    khaki
    , but t
    he colors brown and khaki can be compared by looking at the slacks in the last photo (sold separately).
    Brown
    is on the left.
    Khaki
    is on the right.
    The slacks match the jackets.
    The jacket has belt loops and includes a belt.  Note the
    shoulder epaulets
    and hand sewn buttons, large "bellow" bush pockets, and the slit up the back of the jacket.  The fabric has a great feel to it, soft yet crisp...100% cotton (gabardine).  The tag says "Dry Clean" but we have washed ours in cold water/hung to dry and they have not shrunk.  It also says "Re-Proof if Required"...I would assume that waterproofing washes out, so keep that in mind.  Hunting World made their products all over the world...these jackets were made in China...the quality never changed.
    This
    Hunting World
    safari jacket is new old stock, probably late 1980's/ early 1990's...mint in bag!!!  Hunting World quit making
    safari
    clothing some time ago.  They continue to make some clothing, jackets, luxury bags, etc., and were a high-end shop on Greene Street in New York City from the 1970's until they closed their doors in March 2008.
    The safari jacket I am selling still maintains its 1970's look when compared to a 1975
    Hunting World
    catalog.  The large pointed collar and slender fit don't appear to have changed much over the years.  I believe this jacket to be from the late 1980's to the early 1990's for several reasons:  (1) The plastic bag with the
    Hunting World
    logo has a triangular recycling symbol on it and I believe these symbols came in to being in 1988.  (2)  When contacting the distribution center in Maine, whose address was on the original box containing this jacket, I was told they had not shipped
    Hunting World
    clothing in at least 15 years (and that was told to me over 5 years ago).
    I am still looking for
    Hunting World
    catalogs from the 1980's and 90's as I am not sure about the retail price of this jacket, but in a
    1975 catalog
    jackets were listed at
    5!
    All the information I have included here is through my own research.  The one thing I do know is that these are new old stock, and that
    Hunting World
    does not make these safari jackets anymore.
    ****Any questions????  Please ask them before bidding.  Yes, I combine shipping!!  Thank you.****
