When I first looked at this I didn't like it, but upon studying it for some time I really like this jacket. The more I look it at the more I notice that I like

I got to try out @tmitchell59 's Japanese market Lost Worlds Trojan jacket. This was my first time trying out a Lost Worlds jacket and it was pretty interesting. I was worried that it would be too long in the body and sleeves, but instead it was pretty OK there, but too wide in the chest and especially in the shoulders for me. The sleeves are also a little wide on me as well in the upper arms.
Otherwise, it's a pretty cool jacket and I really like the overall pattern. I think a 38 in this jacket would fit me quite well and if I could go full custom with Lost Worlds, this might be a good jacket for me. I really love the design of it. I also really loved the purple liner because that's my favorite color.
Also, don't try to convince me to keep this because it's already on its way back to Terry! As cool of a jacket as it is, it just doesn't quite fit me. For someone it would fit, this is a damn cool jacket IMO. Big thanks to Terry for letting me try this beautiful jacket out! You can tell this is a good pattern because you can see how close it looks to fitting me well despite the fact that it's clearly too big and the fact that I felt like I was swimming in it. A custom one would actually be something that I would consider if I could make that happen.

Thank you, it is an experimental idea, but the color now is easier to love than few months back and still a long journey ahead.

I think it looks quite good on you. Really suits you. Love the outfit too. Maybe with thick sweater underneath might look even more trim fitting.I got to try out @tmitchell59 's Japanese market Lost Worlds Trojan jacket.

The shorter style fit you perfectly but agree few size too big on the top half. Cool look tho.I got to try out @tmitchell59 's Japanese market Lost Worlds Trojan jacket.

Maybe, but I really can't wear thick sweaters with a leather jacket very often here. Even then, the shoulders would still be too big. I do like the style quite a lot though.
Yeah this makes me more confident for my upcoming jacket from Field Leathers which will be quite short.

I can see why you aren’t happy with the fit but I wonder whether this is how this pattern is supposed to be worn? Length and waist are spot on. If you embrace its boxiness I think you could have enjoyed it. Just a very different fit from your other leather jackets.

Wow, that's a nice development in time! Looks much better, love how it shows the wear.
Cool outfit Jake, you wear that hat really well and it suits you nicely with the longer hair.
Are those Ouderhound boots? They're very nice.
Shoulder look a little wide but otherwise i like how it fits you, especially the shorter length. Brando coolI got to try out @tmitchell59 's Japanese market Lost Worlds Trojan jacket.

Beautiful. I had a LW Trojan meant for the Japanese market. For some reason the shoulders fit wider than on his "regular" offering. I felt like you feel in it. When you size down I think you will find that the length and torso, as well as the sleeve length will fit nearly the same, with chest and shoulders trimming down more. The upper arms will be wider than what you are used to, particularly for some of his repros of MC jackets. Though I can say my J23 and LT are certainly slimmer in that area. It certainly is a stunning jacket though and you wear it well. It is my personal favorite jacket, out of everything I own, and have owned.
Thanks, man. Much more crazy in the house but a lot of love as well.

@dudewuttheheck , it's okay but yeah, send it back.
@navetsea , throw that brown thing away. That symbol of crap times. It destroys this fantastic jacket.

Amazing jacket. Amazing fit.

Thanks, man. Fits me like a glove so no buffets in the immediate future.
I don't know Freewheeler's cuts very well but is the speed master their V-shaped jacket? I heard the Mulholland is more straight-shaped. I'm interested in the brand as my next possible purchase but unsure which cut works for my body which is indeed V-shaped.
