Hello,
I am eyeing a Vanson Comet PLU-3 in size 46.
I am 6'2", 220 lbs, with a 45.5"-46" chest. I recently tried Schott 141 44 Long, which is a tiny bit snug. (Pics below for ref.) Seems like Schott 141 46 Long will be ideal for me. I love the cut/fit of Schott 141, however, I am not fond of the underarm football as I am not a motorcycle rider.
My search led me to Vanson Comet PLU-3 from Thurston Bros. How does it compare with Schott 141 in the same size? Thurston Bros. website says Comet PLU-3 in size 46 measures 25.5 inches pit-to-pit. In theory, it should work for my 46" chest. In your experience, will the cut work for my body type?
Also, in terms of thickness and weight, how is Comet's "competition weight" leather in comparison with Schott 141?
Thanks,
