Oh, those shiny zips ones are just what I have taken photos of. Most of my jackets don’t have those, probably just the Schott 125, Bates T2, & Luftwaffe. The others are vintage, or A2.

Brown FQHH. I highly https://www.wto.org/english/thewto_e/whatis_e/. Recommend. This is tagged 40, which is scarily small as a tag size, as I wear 44, but the pit is 24”, shoulder is 19.75”, so I thought that’s good enough. The jacket end up just right,
Shoulder fits right, sleeves are...
I ordered the cow, think it’d stretch more at the bicep just in case the sleeves end up thin. I did emphasize the bicep is to grow, & gave 16.75” as the relaxed. They also do ask for bicep measurement so I think they somehow will take care of that.

Progress update: received James measurement email. Provided figures. No reply yet, although I replied within their business hour.

Red Wing is not offering their version in the US & their Amsterdam black version is sold out. Not sure why, I think they are missing out a chunk of the market share of this style. But even if they do, the Thorogood is more robustly built (riveted) & has insert, with Horween, overall better...
Placed an order for a Dominator. They say they make two versions of some of the models, a slim version & a regular version. I emphasized my arm size, they can’t adjust the bicep but according to Internet photos, their sleeves are not that thin. I have some thin sleeves jackets & actually fit ok...
The “steer” are substantially stiffer, while the naked cow is soft and creases easily. I’d like to believe there’s more to coating, or the coat would be very thick...

Thank you both! So, arms are thin... the photos don’t look that thin. I wonder if layering is possible. I maybe they can fatten the bicep for me

Been obsessed with Lewis lately, but don’t know any store that carries it here in NY. Got a few questions hoping to get some feedback. One, leather thickness, their three offerings, especially the cow & horse, how thick compared to Eastman’s A2 & Luftwaffe? They have 1.3mm in the web, but how do...
Thanks for posting! A rare one indeed. I really have to say these Simmons Bilt patterns & collar shapes & triangle pocket stitchings are really really pleasing to the eye & outdo their “predecessors” in a major way. I’m going to order one now!
Can you take some close up of the goat? How would...
My experience with many schott tells me the leather is cow but due to this unique lining, wondering if it could be a limited run

Speaking of limited edition perfecto, I wonder if anyone knows this 125 I just got. It’s through & through a 125, the beltless Perfecto with side laces。however, the 125 traditionally has a zip out & is made from cowhide, but the seller on ebay, USALeather, says it’s steer & that this one has a...
