      Look what showed up this afternoon! The leather is amazing, as soft as deerskin, and smells incredible.

      6'1" 200lb in the size 42 sample.  Definitely longer than a traditional J-100 as many have stated.  For a length compare, the last pic has the bottom 1.5" or so folded up.  Shorter looks very good with only socks, but with boots the added length may be more balanced.  34" inseam - the pics make it look like 24"

              Thanks guys!  I'm very pleased with the fit.  It felt like a second skin within minutes.

                                thanks to @Giles i was able to check this one out in person! i love it, though i'm somehow missing some hand warmer pockets on it!

                                here it goes: size 42

                                collar is a tad too small, can't close the snap button 😠

                                      IMO chest is 1-2 Inches to small for you Rafa. Rest (including length) looks spot on!

                                        Unziped it is a perfect fit, but I agree with Jordan23, zipped up it is a bit tight around the chest. Otherwise a perfect jacket.

                                            Cafe Racers are meant to be snug. I don't think that it's way too tight.

                                            As for the length, some of that will be lost when the sleeves crease up. They'll look better in a couple of months. Besides it's better to start off a bit long than a bit short as that can be adjusted if needs be. 😛
