60's ? Woolrich barn jacket, well I call it a barn jacket anyways because I don't know what else to call it.
I really like this one but would love to find a better example since it has a lot of pilling and has seen better days.

Typical LW 4oz+ HH. I was making a joke about the deer I hit with the bike last year.
Haha, yessir, that is the one. It really is amazing how well the hide did during the slide. It was a short one but the road was not close to being smooth.

Fine... but right on the edge for me peronally.

Same here. I wouldn't size up because it would be too big.
I agree the fit looks spot on and that sleeve length was OK for me with certain vintage stuff. The nice thing about sleeve length, at least for me... there is a tolerance zone.

The Vanson model J arrived today, the one I had no intention or business putting an offer on. Initial reaction after 30 minutes of ownership is D@mn, the competition weight is everything that everyone hyped it up to be. This beast fights in the heavyweight division coming in at 9.5 lbs. I suspect it can defeat all contenders in that department. It’s heavy, the heaviest leather jacket I have held. Big ass Vanson branded zipper works flawless, leather has a beautiful grain and most importantly it fits me just right. Fit and finish are top notch, this is after all the first and only Vanson I have gotten my hands on and so far very pleased. Pictures never do our jackets any justice but here are a few.

Thanks, I had fallen into only having crosszips and cafe racer jackets and needed something less aggressive. Although this beast may not be so tame.

It depends on posture as well, not to mention that I am holding a perhaps somewhat rigid and unnatural pose for the photo. I tend to let my shoulders slump sometimes, which exaggerates the length of my arms. Tolerance zone for sure.
I love this style and it suits you to a T! Well done!

Thanks I have always liked this style as well, I could probably show up at Gibson’s steakhouse wearing this beast.
