"New" Thedi Fit Pics - Opinions Wanted

[LordOfLeather]

Hi Guys,

I bought this Thedi on ebay and would like to hear thoughts on the fit. Overall, I am very pleased with the fit. Length is good, chest and waist are good (better than my custom Thedi of a similar style, actually), sleeves are good (though a bit longer than I'm used to).

The only questionable part is the shoulders. I typically wear slim jackets and these shoulders are significantly broader than I'm used to. When I look in a mirror, the extra shoulder width is immediately apparent to me. However, when I look at full-length pictures from the front, it looks like a great fit. The wide shoulders are even more apparent from the back.

So I'm curious what you think. Would you consider the shoulders too wide? I have 30 days to return it. It was reasonably priced, but certainly not the type of deal that would make me overlook something glaring.

Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts.

Looks like a good fit.

Nothing wrong at all with that fit! Nice jacket. Congrats

It looks incredible!
I would think that any slimmer in the shoulders would limit your motion.
The silhouette looks very masculine.

the jeans though....

I expected to get some shit for the jeans. My lady likes them, so what’s more masculine than that?

That jacket looks great man! Those jeans are too damn tight though.

Also, thanks for the positive thoughts on the fit. It’s definitely growing on me.

Look good. Sleeve length spot on. Its hard to even see how the shoulders appear too large. No folds in the upper back so any smaller might be restrictive.

I have gained a bit of weight the last year. I keep stubbornly thinking I will lose weight instead of buying bigger jeans. Don’t shatter my denial.

Jacket looks good. Good find.

Hey man, if your lady likes them then that is a hell of a lot more important then what a couple of dudes on the internet think. The jacket is a keeper for sure!

jacket is perfect. with the padding you want rounded shoulders kind of over hanging otherwise it looks weird at the gap between shoulder and arm.

wasn't going to say anything about the jeans, but since you opened the door, yeah too tight for my taste. Nice looking boots though, just to show you I'm not trying to be mean

Jacket good.

Jeans are like a small hotel.... no ball room.

Anyone should consider themselves very lucky to find something that fits so well of the bay.

If anything the shoulders follow the lines of the torso of the jacket. Just like the Lewis Leather photos
I would only consider them too wide if they were droopy which they are not.

That’s a good point. I was comparing them to the fit of similar Thedi jackets as shown in their official product images on their website, which are all on the slim/small side. Taken at face value though, I think it fits great.

Nah, I can handle a bit of roasting. I’ve spent enough time on here to know it was coming.

Good point about the padding. That also contributes to the bulky shoulders. The padding is more heavily quilted than other similar styles I own, so I just need to get used to it.

It’s all in good fun, but some of us are getting on in age so you might consider using the crop tool going forward.
