    Isn't the reason for a half belt the fact that it gets closer to your lower back then your shoulders? So it hugs your body and prevent it from shifting up? So am these pleats are "useless" . And the long gussets on the back help your arms moving forward.

    The more I look at some vintage jackets the more I feel like the sleeve shape is somewhat more comfortable because they cloned a 30 year old already worked in jacket which already conformed to someone's body before .So a repro already has a broken in sleeve

    I have a feeling that new factory/moved factory means new /fresh employees which seems to create some mayhem currently . I think they need some time to settle down again

    The excess lining might be because of my recent custom where I told them the linings could have a bit more room to accommodate the stretching/shaping of the leather. The leather can stretch about 4-6cm im circumference depending on the size of the jacket. The sleeves actually need quite a bit...

    Shawn replied to my concerns. They will check their inventory of lining materials to see where it came from and to see if other colours are affected. Leather thickness is 1.2 mm with the current cow hide .The 1.4mm was only on request . The 1.2mm black cowhide is semi veg and milled .That's...

    Lol for real ? That's why the quality dropped because nobody wears them . And someone at the donation places is wondering why people donate such heavy brand new leather jackets . Meanwhile I found the old quality cotton twill used as the lining for the inside pockets haha

    To me it looks like the old bait and switch which a lot of their fellow companies do. Build a reputation and then cash in . Sending me a sample with bad screen printing.Then good and then send me 1000 shirts painted with wall paint lol.

    Probably a mix of delusion mixed with rage lol. I am just disappointed in them because they did deliver me (to me) acceptable quality before. I see these posts more as a warning for others so they can see why people cheered for them 200 pages ago and why they moved on by now...
