The Ridley Thurston Brothers sent me instead when I ordered one of the classic V-shaped leather jackets, because their policy is that for sizes under 44, they think people will like the slim Ridley pattern more... which I discovered well into my order being underway. At that point I didn't want to spend the $70 to redo their "fit jacket" nonsense with a different jacket (which would apparently be required, to switch my order to what I originally and explicitly ordered), so for three years now I've been trying to convince myself to like a jacket that isn't the jacket I ordered.
I get why the Ridley pattern is beloved by people here... but it's not what I was after.
