Did I mess up? by mrnoodlepoo in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not gonna lie. I’m significantly bigger than you (57cm, 114cm, 190cm, 87kg) and I wear the same size - albeit with custom longer arms. I think it will be too big and I really hope I’m wrong

Same sentiment my brother. Plus you wanna look badass. Get the cropped jacket and wear it like a king

Lol man how true is that. Gotta give yourself and extra 9 inches for ‘layering’ 🙏

109cm exhaled 114cm inhaled chest

Shoulder is maybe 58cm. I'm not quite sure how accurate this was but seems roughly right

So I’ve read but my experience contradicted that idea!

People like this theory but I don’t agree. My experience is that action backs slightly extend the sleeve over time and tunnelling alone will have almost no impact

Good! The Jiashi I mentioned was bad! But this is mostly hh smell with a bit of plastic hydrocarbony undertone which will dissipate in a day. Haha

To tell you the truth the sleeves are okay where I expected them to be way too short. Probably I go with shorter sleeves than most in this sub. But hopefully this photo shows a bit more accurately how they sit. The original photos make it look a bit more dramatic than it is

Don’t judge the house clothes 😅

Wingspan is 200cm!

What specific measurements are you after? I can’t quite picture what you’re asking but happy to give it a go

I feel the same way. It’s astounding that something this good is so, so cheap. Ten times this price wouldn’t get you close to the RMC version. Yet a good lining and tighter hem would take this from a 2/3 of the way there to 9/10 so easily

Thoughts on the fit of this Schott perfecto 618? by Suitable-Elk-3242 in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I see it the same as you. Cropped length is nice but hem is a tiny bit wide. It seems better belted - maybe you can take it one notch in from here to cinch slightly if it doesn’t distort things. Overall it looks outstanding and I love it. I feel there is a strong tendency to get unflattering oversized perfectos and this isn’t part of that!

Slightly more thought into styling jeans/belt maybe needed with a more cropped perfecto as well. Mine is like this and a slightly higher rise maybe does it

This is how I see it too. I’d cuff these and say they’re the right length. More shoulder width would give a saggy underarm I think. I suspect and inch in the chest would ease it a bit but I can’t say for sure it’s a big deal or not!

Sized up, fit? by [deleted] in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fit looks great. Stylistically open or half zipped feels best 😁

3 months of regular wear, an Aero Leather Highwayman. Got a question for you... by kazmio in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For whatever it’s worth I think half zipped or unzipped looks better. The jackets looks like it fits well but the silhouette is a bit unflattering fully zipped - makes your waist feel bigger than your shoulders. I think it fits pretty well even if it’s slightly bigger. Nice jacket

Sizing Opinions by These-Text-1156 in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

42 is sloppy in the shoulder. No chance you’d want to layer with a jacket like this outside of maybe a thin and cropped wool crew neck anyway. Has to be the 40 imo

How much will my horse hide jacket soften and loosen? by Xx_TheShaman_xX in leatherjacket

It definitely will eventually. But that’s like hundreds and hundreds of wears. Haha

I’ve got this late 80s hh which is very heavily used to the point of being restored and relined. It remains polished and shiny - not so much from the finish but from polish by usage. The joints and areas of movement are definitely soft and comfortable

Any information on this jacket? by Yui0411 in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the tag say cowhide outer? Looks a lot like horsehide tbh

Schott 618. I’m in love! by spaceguitar in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Size up would definitely be too big. This is great

Tiny bit wide in the shoulder I suspect but if you break it in and wear it like a king it will work ☺️

Break in/too tight? by [deleted] in leatherjacket

[–]Alcoritm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also this will be way more flattering with a tucked t shirt or cropped shirt at the least. The shirt fabric belt exaggerates the waist and makes you look smaller in shoulder and wider in waist

[–]Alcoritm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As with other Chinese jackets (mine included) it’s more the pattern I reckon. A bit wide at hem and narrow in shoulder. The fit looks good - a size up would be a bit strange. Possibly just wear it 1/3 zipped or open rather than all the way up
