I purchased the Bootlegger in 2011 if I remember correctly.

Excellent! I love that personalized touch. That's how you know it's a lifer. Great to see you post your stable HD. Your BL and PN's definitely influenced my journey toward one. Cheers man. We're warming up. Time for the Aussie's to step up and hold us over 'til Fall. Hint. Hint.

ELMC Roadstar today, I’m really glad I didn’t sell this one the 8 or so times I listed it then took it down..

Yes it is 24 degrees degrees today, but after a 2+ year wait for it you're ****** right I'm wearing my Arcadia.

No t shirt needed! @Corky Corcovado

Counting down the cooler days... Trying to get a day's wear each out of my favorites before it turns to summer temps in a blink of an eye.

Wearing my Cossack in very nice cow today. I almost sold this one awhile back, due to the shoulders being just a bit snug for an extremely good price. Gathering my senses since the hides used on this are so nice, not to mention the color, I decided to bite the bullet and give it a good cool water soak.

The jacket withstood me wearing a thick sweatshirt underneath while wet, and then stretching with force in every possible position standing and sitting for hours until dry.. The results as one can now see were VERY good! The jacket fits pretty damn well, and most importantly, is comfortable.. REALLY supple now after a good application of Pecard's to boot. Here's the pics:

EDIT: Messing around again, going for a vintage-look to the pics:

Nice jacket BTW.

Thanks! The jacket fit very well before, other than slight tightness in the shoulders. I would say I gained around 1/4-3/8" of room in the body overall, leaning towards the 3/8" mark. It was just enough to save the day...

Testing out my new Real McCoys 30's steinbeck I picked up while in Japan. It fits a little larger than im used to in the sleeves and waist area so I'm on the fence. Shoulders and chest fit great though as the sz 40 was a little too tight, what do you guys think?

Perfect!

@BowsTrading have you got the side buckles fully cinched? Looks to be too long in the body bro, by quite a bit .Looking at the wsy it fits you I'm guessing you can't be taller than 5,8", am I warm?

 

[Superfluous]

what do you guys think?

1. The fit looks good.

2. The jacket flares out just a touch at the bottom. Tightening the side buckles might serve to diminish this. Alternatively, you can take-in a very small amount (e.g., 1/2 inch) on the bottom few inches of each side.

3. Most importantly, clean your mirror!

Oops!

I did suddenly think right after posting that that the angle might be making it look longer than it really is. Can your hands access the pockets on your jeans without being impeded?
