^ Tired of seeing that jacket. It's from the women's line.

Some telltale signs: (1) Back length is only 21", (2) MRS zippers were not used on men's line 5-zips past 2005/6. This jacket is from SS2008, (3) Tags are missing presumably to hide that it's women's line, (4) This jacket is identical to the women's 5-zip offered on MMM's current season e-boutique, (5) This jacket must have passed through at least 5 different hands in the past 2 months, clearly there's an issue with it that nobody's bothering to disclose..

everything you say makes sense, the only question mark is that it seems to zip left over right like a man's jacket. of course the image could be reversed, should be easy to find out.
good info though, thanks

Pit to Pit: 18.5"
Sleeve Length: 26"
Back Length: 26.5"
