Crompton’s got a bit of an encyclopaedic approach to men’s style which I don’t particularly like but some articles like this one are an interesting read.
YOU GUYS!!!
You've got me seriously thinking about ordering a classic 391 Lightning in black sheep. Standard cow sounds good as well, but I am leaning towards sheep since it is something a little different to the popular hides you see in the wild and it is sort of 'LL Trad'.
The website just has a drop-down size menu with a note promising a good custom fit, but the reality that I have learned from this thread is that all measurements are customizable with both a base and a 'tight' pattern for a base.
Now my only hesitation is how much wear it would get. As much as I love the classic punk/rock vibe, I've also seen a lot of these for sale from people who ultimately 'decided it didn't fit my style' (ie, they felt self-consciously like a they were cosplaying Slash or Joey Ramone or the wife made fun of their mid-life crisis outfit).
As you can see, I speced mine inbetween a 36 and 38 tight fit to get it perfect..and it truly is an amazing fit, like a glove
Questions for anyone who has ordered recently:
How much tweaking of the fit do they allow? Is it like Areo where you pick a size and modify length and arms or can chest, opening, armhole, shoulders and everything else an option to modify?
I don’t see Rutland Sheep listed - is that the standard sheep?
what other lining options are there, aside from the res satin?
TIA!

Just got my VegeCow Dominator. Opened it up, snapped a couple pics and decided to upload! It’s night time so not the best but I’ll upload some more soon! The fit is perfect!

That leather looks so nice! Congratulations! LL needs more representation here!
If I get one I'll go vintage lol I think LL is a little too avant garde for my simple tastes thoughWhich one are you getting?
