Those are just beautiful.
Thank you. Glad you like some of what's been getting crafted in Japan for the last few years.

Charles,
I think this one might be a good starting point for what I had in mind:
then add the other details to this cut, and we might be getting somewhere great.....
JMHO
Thanks for posting the info and pics. I'm tall, but every so often run into a jacket from a Japanese maker that looks like it would be long enough, except for maybe being short by an inch or two in the sleeves. I'd like to eventually go for on one of those fine Japanese jackets, when I can afford one. To me, some of those Buzz or McCoy A-2s just tick all of the right buttons. The color of the leathers on many of them are just perfect in my eyes. Hard to explain, but the Japanese jackets just seem to move me. It's hard to be broke and tall.
I'm gonna stick with this:
I'm sorry I can't help you with the income situ, Nick123, but if this goes anywhere, I think we may be able to do something with the length. If I may ask, what is your sleeve length in a dress shirt and what jacket size do you think you'd be? Thank you!
Personally, I'd really like something longer. I know Buzz has the William Gibson line in tall sizes, but those only come in black. I had a Buzz catalog and I just marveled at every last thing, nylon included, so anything goes. Maybe our jacket could be made from a shade in other than regular russet or seal. Take advantage of some of their exclusive leathers (their medium brown M-422a version comes to mind...) maybe make larger sizes for the bigger guys as well.
