    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    What does your arm measure when measured from shoulder to wrist? I measure about 60-61cm. Again, 26" sleeve length is perfect for me. If you want to layer, I'd say get a size 40. I wouldn't be able to zip up my size 36 641HH if I wore, say, a fleece vest or a sweater under it.

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    To tell you the truth, the size 36 sleeves are a tad short on me. The size 38 would suit me better in that aspect. Measured from the shoulder to the wrist, 26" is my magical number.

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    Since your chest is 43", Damo, I would definitely go with a 38 if you're going for the 641HH. At 42", I can just zip up a size 36. Size 38 will be perfect. For you, it will be very, very fitted but it wouldn't squeeze your chest together or anything.

    What is it about horsehide?

    My entire bedroom is packed with leather jackets, gloves & boots... I hang my jackets up on the wall (still got room for 6 more), and I wear my jackets all the time. Everywhere I go, I smell leather. Though I have to say, I believe I don't smell it as intense as I did when I got mynfirst quality...

    Horsehide Battle Rd 1. Schott 641 vs Lost World Easy Rider

    This is highly a matter of preference... Schott's horsehide is very high-quality, vegetable tanned Italian horsehide. CXL leather is combination tanned. To each his own.

    Can you please recommend a jacket for me?

    I'd also recommend a Sheene, can't see what could be wrong with it. Perhaps a size 38 Highwayman could work.

    Gorgeous jackets, Carrie! Looks like the September orders are coming through nicely. Could you ask Aero to snap some pics of my two tone J106 for me before they ship it my way?

    That is cuteness and coolness mashed together, right there. Adorable and bad-A. Made my day.

    How many of you did hide a new leather jacket purchase from wife?

    I'll just hang 'em on the wall as I do now :) my entire bedroom is packed with leather boots, gloves, jackets. You can imagine what the place smells like ;)

    How many of you did hide a new leather jacket purchase from wife?

    Can't wait to have to hide my jacket purchases from my wife instead of my mothers... On my 10th jacket already, so any woman who'll start dating me will know the jackets are part of the package.

    Sizing opinion plz

    If that's what you want, go for it man... You could get a Padded Columbia with a mandarin collar and you've got about the same basic jacket. Perhaps you could also request those Old School British-styled side buckles. You know you want it .... ;)

    Some perspective on leather jacket pricing?

    Can't really think of any other animal that just follows the herde, but I did not know sheep have individuality, character and intelligence. I suppose the best term would be 'dumb fashion followers', then.

    God.... Love that A2 in Vicenza... Drool. I messed around with my samples quite a bit, and this leather ages SPECTACULARLY.

    Some perspective on leather jacket pricing?

    ^this. Thank you for clearing that up, Monitor. I didn't mean to call every person who shops at a mall a dumb sheep. Just the people who follow fashion trends without really thinking about what they're doing. All of my T-shirts and undies and regular socks (not boot socks) are bought in...

    Sizing opinion plz

    You made the right call. I hope it turns out the way you want it to. At least you've also got that Brown Model B to look forward to! ;)

    Some perspective on leather jacket pricing?

    In my opinion, mall clothing is one of the worsts pests to ever occupy this world, and people who frequent these mall clothing stores are nothing but sheep who really don't know the first thing of what they're talking about. Everything about it is just crazy, pointless and illogical. People like...

    Aero J106 - Too big?

    I asked Carrie about their supposed trimmer fit, I thought Insurrection's patterns are slimmer by standard but the only thing different is that Insurrection's J106 has shoulder gussets by standard. Just wanted to clear this out in case anyone else was wondering (like me).
