The fedora lounge! eBay! You'll find tons of great jackets for sale! What's left out of this comment is the "if you're a 38" . Even the few 42-44 "fit like a roomy 38"

Personally think it’s lot of people buying second hand from Japan for some of these brands and trying to flip it. Can’t find a 44 over there.

You are wrong, but go off king.

Glad you made a thread about this, now we are all wiser. Such important information. Good job.

This has the hallmarks of a post destined for greatness...

Are you just looking at Japanese brands? There's plenty of jackets size 42-44 up on ebay from Western makers that make great jackets

I can’t imagine how broke I would be buying from Japanese sites if I wore a 38 lol. It’s probably for the best I don’t.

Here you mostly find for sale either under size 40 jackets. Or biiiiig ones like 46 and up.
There is a nice vintage police jacket but its way too big to be worn by most.
If comes an interesting jacket around 42-44 it won't last long.

I've been eying a few on Thurston Bros stock section, those are new and pricey. There's a few that I like but used/worn sites are worthless for people over/under a certain size. My size Thedi(3X) is $200 more than XL. There's more material in a 3x I get it. But $200? On a jacket that's already $1,600 the tall tax is real I guess!

I'm 5'10 165lbs and wear a Thedi M.

Has it occurred to you that rather than only small people selling their stuff, most of the jacket base is people with significantly different proportions to yourself?
