How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?
2 incoming and I think I saved the best for last. We'll see, but these are probably the end game for me for a long time (or at least until I sell off a bunch). 16 total leather jackets is starting to get into obsession land and more importantly, these things deserve to be worn so they start to...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

I have/had one for sale too. I think I'm going to keep it because getting less than $200 for it seems silly and would rather keep it for the apocalypse in case I need to stop bullets LOL. But if someone really really wants it, let me know. Gosh knows I need to start clearing out the closet...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

no worries. Interesting idea. Some of the sales on buyee or really Yahoo auction have added sales tax. I think it depends on whether the transaction is being done through a store or private party. Seems to be about 10%. But I think you're talking about the additional cost to bring to you...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

to add to this, the 42 and 44 have same ptp but 44 has wider shoulder and waist (and I'm guessing sleeve length). At the time I bought mine, there was a 44 avail and I compared the two and also consulted with Marc. Marc and I are very similar size, and here's my fit with the 42. Again though...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

I think I saw this one too. The problem is the measurements listed. This is why buyee can be dangerous. The shoulder size is listed wider than the chest (what they call width). And I don't think there's a way to contact seller, get photos, etc. to confirm what's going on. Also it's listed...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Finds and Deals - Leather Jacket Edition
I posted this earlier. It was on Japan Yahoo. I think I said something about being one of the earliest numbered jackets. It had a buy it now of I think $400 if I recall on Buyee, so would have been about $500 with shipping, fees and all that. Most of the older Vansons-- C2, Enfield, Model...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

42 fits me perfect at 6'0 and 185 lbs, 42 chest, 33 pants size. It's a 22 ptp but with really smooth gussets, so is not tight at all. Probably one of my most comfortable fitting even though the specs are the smallest. Monitor has the 44, although technically we discovered his is probably the...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Cal CHP sz. 42ish
I went on a Cal binge past month or so and have picked up 3. Somethings got to go because the closet is officially full. This one probably has the nicest leather characteristics of the 3, but is also a little banged up. It truly feels vintage if that's what you're going for. The liner has...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Nice. About time someone else did some heavy lifting around here. I thought I was doing most of the spending for a while :) I'm on my third Cal and don't even question it anymore. Haven't seen a CR in my size though for less than $500 (and probably ever wont) otherwise it would be 4.- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

this one is tempting. I just got that Levis buffalo one which is just fine, but I got to imagine the leather on this is going to be better. Hmmmm. Just worried about the usual Schott dimensions and they didn't provide very good measurements.- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

they probably measured the inside seam (instead of the outside gusset) seam for the shoulder. 17 doesn't look right.- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

if that thing fits you, buy it. It's been posted here a few times as a no brainer ;) I'm thinking about having a couple ribs removed so I can squeeze into it.- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?
got the same jacket couple days ago via Ebay. think I got a good deal on it as I've seen most selling in $350-400 range. Mine is buffalo though. I moved the buttons on the sleeves to make them taper more and it was like just a smidge baggy, so dunked it in water and put it in the dryer...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Schott 673 brown waxy cowhide leather jacket size Large
LOL. man, the things I check for now, unreal. I think the model I have of this in black is called "James" or 165. Seems to be very similar. I had to tailor the sleeves as they were like made for popeye forearms, almost a reverse taper kind of thing. Much better fit and cool overall design...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Show your graining
Those Cals are gorgeous. I just picked up my 3rd. This last is the most banged up (loose stitches, torn liner, halfway frayed male zip) but the leather is the best of the 3 I got. I wonder if the harder life of the jacket is contributing to more characteristics, ie. more wear = more beauty :)...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead

Ask a Question, Get An Answer About Outerwear
do what Jin said. Find a good jacket that fits and use those as base line measurements 26 sleeve should be about right generally speaking. I'm 6'0 also. Some variables like shoulder width will affect sleeve length. If you going with knit, I'd go 27 to allow the knit to fold under somewhat...- TooManyHatsOnlyOneHead
