Looking for a well broken in LW J-23 44R.

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.

Same. Up one size for the J23.

Good to know one size up in the J23 is recommended!

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.
