Here the American letterman is turned into a collage of house imagery: a tall orange L and a white-and-green V across the chest, pictorial appliqués below them, and looping script lettering along each sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back is the showpiece. A frog in golden chenille swings a sledgehammer over an anvil, flanked by a heart bearing the house initials and a numbered patch reading #54 in thick pile against the purple wool. Smooth ivory leather sleeves set off the script lettering, and striped rib knit at collar, cuffs and hem draws the silhouette in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements are not recorded; our concierge team will gladly take them by hand before you buy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Louis Vuitton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multi-patch chenille varsity jacket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wool, with leather sleeves and rib-knit collar, cuffs and hem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLining:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin (cupro and cotton, per the composition label)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purple and ivory with orange, green, black and cream appliqué\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 (tag)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Front snap buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy (per the size tag)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorn once, according to the previous owner; the wool, leather and patchwork appear clean and well kept in the photographs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eA (excellent)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Louis Vuitton Paris lining label, the size and origin tag and the composition label are present and shown in the photographs.
