Welcome to the forum. LW J23 is a badass nice jacket. However, how do you know that is your size? Have you tried a size 44R before? If you are set on that size because you have tried it on, then there is a chance you will get a nice one in this forum. Just for reference Stu, has an older sizing formula that has been effective for him. I have some j23 in size 46R, but they fit like a LW44. It could be because it was a custom job? I am a size 44 in Vanson's model E.

I have not tried on a LW jacket, but I do have other jackets that are 44, including a Real McCoy J-24 that fits well with room for a hoodie in the cool CA winters. Is the sizing formula on his web page? I'll look and see if I can find it. Thanks!

I've found for a LW J23, I needed to go up one size compared to my other jackets.
Not sure why the sizing is that way - but that's how it worked out.
Btw you should be posting this in Classifieds section
I don't believe there's a sizing formula on his website

Stu does not have a posted sizing chart or formula. When ordering, he has for two main things, height and weight. Old school but it works. RMC I am a size 46 on their j-24. By the way, When I described my weight and height to him, he recommended size 44. RMC runs 1.5 sizes too smaller than LW in my view.
Finally, I would strongly recommend speaking to Stu. He will take the time to help you out.

I contacted Stuart at LW, he was very helpful, asked my height and weight and said I was borderline between a 44 and a 46 (5'11" 210 lbs.), then he asked my waist size which is 34 and he recommended a 44R.
