Yes agree fit looks good. Shoulders look nice and trim, not droopy. Bit of self interest here, where were you on the list of jackets to be made as posted by BK on face book?

Looks like a nice jacket. Although I wonder about the sleeve length...
Which contract is that?

Yeeeess. Cuffs look fine, but there's a bit of bunching further up. But if you're happy, don't worry about it. Length is fine.

Is that the one "we" tried selling? If so, it looks great and thanks for the pics. It will probably look excellent down the road.

I think the overall fit is fine, especially once the sleeves soften and break. However, I'm sorry to say that I think the pockets have been placed too far apart and are too big. But maybe that's just me?

I have the same thought as well. But when I looked at the other BK 1755 jackets, they dont look like this one. So I think the best way is to have a photo with jacket lay flat.

For everybody's reference, this is my early BK 1755, made before any of the Victory HH era. It does look significantly different though.

One of my favorite jackets posted here!
I was a fan of the old hides they had. In retrospect, I can understand them wanting to source different leather, but those original jackets were great, and at a good price.
