Vintage K-Way Navy Packable Hooded Windbreaker M L France Read Zipper Wear

Description

Vintage French-era K-Way packable hooded windbreaker in navy - the original festival/cycling icon. Signature tricolor-striped zip tape in orange, navy, white, and yellow with the METAL K-WAY logo zipper pull (the vintage tell - modern reissues use plastic), attached hood, kangaroo flap pouch across the chest (the jacket packs into its own pocket), elastic cuffs, snap details. Interior label reads TISSU ENDUIT / 100% POLYAMIDE (coated nylon) with the old K-Way flag logo - the French-production era, 1970s-80s. No size tag remains (the label is period-frayed) - by the measurements it fits like a modern men's M/L. Taken flat and zipped: - Chest (armpit to armpit): 22.5 in - double for full circumference - Sleeve (raglan - measured from center of back collar to cuff): 34 in - Length (bottom of collar to hem, center back): 27.5 in All measurements approximate - please compare to a jacket that fits you well. Condition - PLEASE READ, sold as-is: this is an honest 40-plus-year-old survivor. The white zipper coil has a pulled/frayed section mid-front, shown up close - the zipper has NOT been function-tested through the damaged section and the jacket is sold as-is for wear, display, or repair (a zipper swap is a routine alteration job). There is also a small stitched mend on the nylon near the front (shown) and the interior brand label is frayed with age. Fabric is otherwise sound with no other holes noted; the metal pull, snaps, and elastic are intact. Priced accordingly.
