What do you guys think? fit and leather and color?

Arrived about 1 week ago, size 44 in Vicenza Cordovan. I am wearing a patagonia air nano underneath. Still feels a little tight around the armpits and biceps area, otherwise it feels pretty "slim fit" but not in a bad way. Neck area feels good so far.

I had a size 42 Maxwell in CXL HH and felt a too tight in the armpits too. The new 44 only measured about 1 inches bigger (laying flat). Honestly, I think it is the softer leather choice that is the most noticeable difference. The CXLHH was heavier, and felt alot thicker and stiffer.
The Vic was softer but kind of looked and felt " like cheap plastic". A little too grainy for my preference also

None of those pics look like the jackets are comfortable. Could be your layer is too thick.I much prefer the lighter weight vicenza.i dislike any jacket in cxl.too heavy, stiff and the colour loss made me move the 4 jackets i bought new on very quickly. Held on to a seal jerky A2 and a very soft midweight H/H half belt .lovely stuff.
