          Friday you can go by MF charts they are accurate. I went 36 tts snug, its ok for me after now over a years wearing it and I am ususally not that kind of layering guy. for daily puposes and if I would buy the NOS blanket again I would go 38 though. The indigo drover is a tiny tiny bit different in cut imho prob due to the indigo dyed melton wool and enough space for a sweater and a denimjacket but still fitted like I love.

          hmmm gonna wear the blanket right now for a nightwalk  😛

          Cheers,
          David

            Friday mate snapped some quick crappy pics

            tts size 36 with a tshirt could wear a shirt or a sweater but not layering a denim jacket. Dont need too this one is very warm due to the blanket and the inner flannel lining. 🙂 arms and shoulders are perfect per my gusto, its a very fitted jacket especially around shoulders and armpits. Over the long run i would prob better with a 38 but as long as i stay in this shape i pull it easy off

            Cheers,
            David

              I did D..

              MF sites shows 48 ptp for a size 42 whereas SE 44 ptp. Im looking to wear it with only a thermal or a heavy T's (IH tees that is) if I'm buying one. If MF is more accurate my guess a 40 will fit my requirement. But gambling a $800plus is a big gamble I couldn't afford.

              hehheheehe… you wear them well for sure..

                    Hehe buddy

                    Fyi my blanket size 36 measures about half an inch less in chest than the melton size 38 per MF. means i could prob not wear a size 36 comfy and buttoned up in the melton like i can in the blanket.

                    But then everybody has its own gusto for comfort. I always prefer a bit the snugger side in tops

                      It's time for a RoadChamp update (as requested by Scottystyles 😉 ).

                      These have not had any oils/waxes applied to them ever, they get brushed down if they get dirty, simples. They've been worn 1-2x a week since getting them, never blistered (close at one stage), I'd say they're almost fully broken in, they're really enjoyable to walk in, a combination of floating on air, and firm support. All photos straight out of the camera. No colour corrections or adjustments.

                        @davito, your wool drover is still 100% my favourite jacket ever. Pity it's not cold enough down here and I already have a ton of jackets. Please keep wearing and enjoying for at least 2 🙂 x

                          Oh yeah, they are looking nice Wade. Be super nice to eyeball them over a coffee. Correct me if I'm wrong, the leather front sole is correct for time in the early 1900's for building (I think(excuse my lack of knowledge or e-logic)) but I find it gets a little slippery on some surfaces. That's one thing that puts me off. I've been finding that on my leather sole boondockers. Every other aspect is absolutely outstanding though! Beautiful!

                              Beautiful snowy. A size 9 is available FS on denimbro. If face to face maybe I'm willing to bite the bullet but online from new member I'm a bit worried.

                                        Hmm, starting to look at the John Lofgren engineers more now Snowy (sorry MF) Was browsing Rakuten a few months back and noticed them on speedway shop but haven't had the loot to lay down so I stopped looking. I guess knowing you guys there's probably a tread on here from them.

                                          Road champs are so close to bring the coolest engineers to me, except for how high the strap is.

                                            anyone have a pair of the new indigo dyed corduroy's? those have peaked my interest, just curious on any info / fit pix.

                                            cheers.
