IHAL-01 - Horse Hide Cafe Racer with Collar

[tatmantall]

Ahh… Did not know shortening was a possibility. In the past had spoke to another jacket maker who had told me sizing too long was not feasibly "fixable" when he questioned the length of my spec which in turn made me bail. I was fairly certain of my size but then started doubting my self.

Sorry to be a pain.

Ask Friday how his turned out.  We took a couple of inches off the length the arms of his cafe racer for him…..

[tatmantall]

Will do. Thanks giles

[Friday]

It turned out GREAT!!! They did a very good job on mine..

@tatmantall:

Really want to pull the trigger on one but just want to make sure it's right after dropping 2k on a himel I can't use anymore

Tat, which himel is it and what size? Do you still have it? I have a friend who's been looking for a used himel..

[tatmantall]

In class at the moment will PM you the details this evening

[Giles]

Given you still have the Himel, working out arm length for the IHAL should not be too difficult…..

Wow i might need one of these in my life

How do these compare in sizing to the IH-9527J, I have a 44 which is pretty close to bang on for me.

[Giles]

From the website:

• We try to keep most of the more popular sizes in stock.  We can, of course, do other sizes to order, lead time will normally be 2 weeks or so.  Please contact us to discuss

• NB: Please note that we only have size M (38) made and measured as yet.  Other sizes are being made at the moment and the sizing chart will be updated as soon as we have the other sizes to hand. “Model” (Giles) will wear size L (40).  Giles is 6" 2" with a 42" chest. 33" waist and weighs 190lbs

So basically, I don't know, but it doesn't matter

[tatmantall]

Soooo ready

[Finn666]

what are you going for tat?…

[tatmantall]

Black one of these bad boys but with custom measurements to fit my tall -ness

[samnz]

Perhaps you could link me to the measurement instructions, if they can be made to measure i probably should do so

[superfuzz]

Thanks tatmantall,

Will get some measurements sorted, might have to be that brown for me.

Can we possibly get a fit pic?  Definitely want to treat myself to the Burgundy.  I'm 5'8" and 160 pounds.  I have a 41 inch chest.  Would the Large be the right size to get?

@jos1980:

Not until I get one here that actually fits…...
@jos1980:

I'm 6' 2" and 185, I think I will be an L.

But atm, it is only a think…..

[tatmantall]

Finally got the himel sold and am anxiously awaiting this beauty! 

[Giles]

I am getting a few tomorrow.  Unfortunately yours is not in this batch, but I think it will arrive next week…........
