I need a fit check on this Mister Freedom A-1 jacket, please.

The jacket fits perfectly. Wear it with pleasure.

I told myself no more jackets but it was 50% off lol. I think the details are very unique!

Looks like it fits very well. Does it feel comfortable? Are you questioning something about it?

 

[ALittleBitOfCompany]

Feels comfy, yep. Looks good to me. But this is my first leather jacket. Just wonder if there's something I'm not seeing.

Sleeves are too short. Looks like the back would feel lumpy when sitting in a car. Sleeves also look like they are bulky and bothersome. It just does not look flattering. The boxy cropped look reminds me more of a women's style.

The back would not only feel lumpy when sitting in a car the adjustment strap and buckle will damage leather seats.
I can’t remember when but a few months ago there was a post on the forum from someone who had experienced that very same problem when wearing an Aero Leather Shackleton waistcoat and they ended up actually removing the entire adjuster strap.

Issue, incompatible with my (now damaged) leather car seats.

Solution+recondition drivers seat=more Shackleton wear/enjoyment

(Polite) Ideas to re-use the impracticable design feature are welcomed....

Found the relevant post from Dec 2024

As it's broken further, the shoulders relaxed and dropped, making the sleeves longer. Its comfortable to sit down in when leaning against a chair. Yes I agree the back will scratch other leather items.

I have both IH N1 and RMC N1. There's 2 main differences:
1) Side Pockets - IH is lined with the same alpaca lining as the inside. RMC is unlined.
2) Sleeve lining - IH has the quilted satin lining. RMC is lined with wool / alpaca.

For me, I feel warmer in the IH, however, the RMC fits me better.

That's what customer service reps told me. I bought another Iron Heart in Khaki because it is easier to match with my clothes than the black one. The ball is up in the air as to whether I will sell my black IH deck jacket or not.

Looks like the sizing is correct from the pics you’ve linked. As has been said above, the cut of the jacket is what it is, range of motion will be reduced compared to an action or true sports jacket.

I’m a little longer in the torso, and find the dipped / longer jackets difficult to find. Especially since I like the cleaner look of the hem being just below the belt line.

I have a jacket which I’m also on the fence with, so possibly similar advice is to wear it, find what you like to wear it with (or what you wear beneath it), and enjoy.

i just picked this up off marketplace and figured id post some nasty bathroom mirror selfies. Dont mind the kum n go tshirt, i think they dont exost anymore. Anyway, i had a fox creek grayson in a 50r that was too short. I moved that then came across this 141 in a 50 long. I Feel like it fits ok, even though its a shade big, i dont think id be able to move in the 48. Thepart that has me second quessing this are the holes for the wrists and neck are huge for an mc jacket and the neck is floating up my neck. Its kind of a wierd fit and im not sure if it will settle out or not. Opinions? Oh, yes, i know the sleeves are longer than most of you guys wear, but it was actuallyintended for use on a bike.

Thanks!
