same leather as the pale rider, right? I wonder if SB can just make me a shirt without the IH branding buttons and all that. Need to contact them. Beautiful jacket in any case.
If I would have never found these boards, I would have been totally happy with my All Saints LOL. The blessing and curse : )
All Saints was big upgrade over my Andrew Marcs. They're usually on sale 40%+ off. I'd never pay full price, but at $100-150 on Ebay especially, it's a hell of an...
Schott offer sleeve shortening services. Be careful with your measurements though as most people measure the actual sleeve and I think you're referencing the length from the collar maybe?
I owned that All Saints or something very similar. Was actually a very cool jacket. The Schott will be...
ah bummer. Never made the rotation? I haven't worn my lightning nearly as much as I should. Every time I do, I'm like what a great jacket. Too many in the closet. Need to make more hard decisions and get rid of a few more. Added another I haven't even posted yet that was jacket wish list...
A little long in the body. I prefer a touch longer than most people around here, but I think yours is even pushing my limit, especially back length.
The sleeves I agree will shorten up some. 1 inch, I don't know, about half inch for sure if you develop deep creases, especially water induced...
One and only price bump and then it's going back into my rotation. Actually been wearing it the past couple days and I'm finding it pretty practical for various use.
$330 PPFF Conus shipping.
way too big. You probably need to go custom for the "perfect fit", but a lot of Schotts are longer cut, like 25.5-26 inch back. So if you go with a small, you might be able to get lucky. Not sure what style you want, but check out 519. It's a longer, slim fitting perfecto style. Nice thing...
I gave it a light "shrinki" treatment. A spray down with the hose and some time in the sun. Probably shrunk 1/4 size. The pattern is very giving from the belly button up. I've got the cinches pulled pretty tight but if I loosen some, I can easily fit a semi thick hoodie underneath. I think...
Just when I thought I was out, @ton312 pulls me back in.
this started out as a FOMO with all the recent Highwayman and Hercules posts lately. But this has got legs. Will definitely get wears and I've got some room to layer which is really nice.
The blackened brown vic is really nice...
LOL. I was just thinking about that today when I bought yet another jacket. I justified it by saying, "well, all this investment going to keep me skinny". No way I'd go through all this again if my weight fluctuated. Stocking up on green tea extract and water.
Outstanding fit. Cafe Racer is really hard because you need that form fitting look and especially hard to achieve if not having gussets. With some wears, everything will lay flat and some of that poof on the shoulders and in the back will go way. Hopefully your weight stays about where you...
car coat seems to be the new IT jacket around here. This one is exceptional and love the unique touches of it. Trying really hard to not fall down this hole
oh wow. I just received Ton's original hercules, otherwise this would have been super tempting. I empathize with your pain of having to give it up. When it don't fit, but you know how great it is, sigh. I'm sure someone going to scoop it up soon and give it a great home.
6'0, 180-185 lbs, chest about 41. I don't know how to do shoulder and arm measurements. Usually the sweet spot for my jackets is shoulder 18-19 and sleeve length 25-26.
The shoulders on this one are over 20, so that droop offsets the sleeve length some. Here's some shots of where they hit me...
spectacular. And to all those posting brown pony pics, sheeeet. I just missed out in the supply. Good on you though. Going to wait a couple months and see what happens, but the last thing I need is another black jacket.
so much better. Nice job! I tried doing something similar with a cream colored type 1 I bought. Didn't go so well. The blue I was going for ended up being more purple. Too bad Prince is dead, I could have sold it to him
ah man, it was kind of close, but yeah, it crossed over.
It's going to cost you more money, but RMC J24L is longer and longer sleeves. And actually that Vanson Commando I just sold would work too. You probably a large in that one though. Also check out Schott D Pockets. They've got some...
