      What I can see from the pic G-San added a zip flap? Layer? or what do you call that? Imo it'll gives the jacket an extra /better presentation, when worn unzipped. Also, using a contrasting color for the lining is a great choice making it a much better looking. Not sure if that applies to a black color as well if they do than it's going to be great as well.

      Making the upper arms a little snugger or trimmer also makes the proportion a lot nicer as AL off the rack usually comes with a wider upper arm, maybe to make them more practical for them bikers. Plus the IH labeling.

      Those buying this will not be disappointed.

      thanks for taking the time to sum this up…sounds good to me, but sure if G. made those tweaks on purpose though :P... all love G. 😉

        The idea of the wind flap came to me about a week ago.  Linings were always going to be those colours.  We made mods to the sizing between each sample…...

          The wind flap is a nice touch. Those jackets look sharp. Can't wait to see how they look broken in. I'm really happy to see that AL is doing well!

            I will pop sizing of the size 40 up in a minute.  I will then get 38, 40, 42 and 44 in regular length made in all 3 variations.

            I'll take pre-orders though.

            I'll have them here in about 10 days.

            Kool! I'm keen to get the burgundy but as said to Winchy may make a jaunt to Goz-world to try one on first!

                  An inch more length would make it perfect, it feels just a bit short to me at first glance…

                        I agree with furatto. Jus a lil longer. Other measurements look great

                          ^ Agree with FH and PP – a hair longer would be preferable for me.  Otherwise, stellar!

                            imho I agree with both sentiments. Longer would be perfect but that doesn't mean that its way too short and looks out of proportions. Besides the length, everything looks PERFECT!! For me the most important is the sleeves and comfort. Other than that, it would a nice addition to the collection and adds to variations ; long or short matching the mood and events.

                            Nevertheless, I may be biased. But it sure does look good in you

                                  Yeah–to me rider and rider-inspired jackets are supposed to be short to suit the seated position.

                                  Think it, be it.

                                    I think the length looks good. A couple questions I do have though: Does it zip up ok? Can you move at all when it's zipped?

                                        thanks a ton for all the feedback guys…so atm. it's 7:4 for a good fit ^^
                                        the "a tad too short" part was my first thought as well. gonna give it another day of thinking about it

                                        Does it zip up ok? Can you move at all when it's zipped?

                                        yes and yes
