IH-101J - 1946 101J Riders Jacket

[khaki8]

Louis…looks great...just needs breaking in a bit....love the look of the jacket. I really like the ric rac stitch down the front placket.

[louisbosco]

yeah the zigzig stitching, the buttons and the selvage line. fantastic details. though i must say, i would love additional selvage line across the sleeve, visible when you cuff. and i reckon it definitely needs breaking in, these are very stiff. havent worn a new denim jacket in awhile, so these brought me back to square one.

@louisbosco:

here's mine.

to me this jacket is very different from a type 3 FH jacket i owned. the sleeves and cut was much fuller and i've found the sleeves length a little long for my linking. however the details are really nice, and i probably could see myself adjusting to it. mine's a size 36/S. perhaps i should've gone for the 34/XS, but the p2p was the same as the flathead i measured, so i stuck with these.

Wow!!! This is great, I love this 18 OZ, what is this size? Also like to see back side length picture Enjoy!!!

Wow!!! Classic!!! Thanks for the pictures!!!

[ROman]

No problem. It's a nice jacket, heavy, soft, and no struggles with the buttons.

[rohitsingh]

pretty tapering tho, very much like good old riders pretty tempting too, I am somewhere between ecto & mesomorph so not sure @Giles how about 40% father's day off just kidding!!!

My eyes on you … never know!!!

@Winchy:

Here are the pre and post measurements of the sample 101J i've been wearing for a while….it's an XL.

It's just had it's first wash since the initial soak so i'll grab some more measurements and photos and add them soon.

Thanks a lot, that will be interesting and helpful!!! BTW do you find this tapering a lot, I am not that flat belly

[Winchy]

It does taper but it doesn't bother me, despite my beer belly, as I rarely button it up.

[organisys]

The fit of this jacket is not for me (I have a lefty trucker), but the pics you guys have put up are great!!

[Dion]

It'll be very interesting to see how the buttons age on it.

[Max Power]

I'm so tempted by this one…will have to try it on (XXL  :()

Here's some great shots of mine (thanks @Axel) along with some 'just about fits' pics….

Very nice @Winchy ! How long have you been wearing the jacket?

[Finkster]

Top-notch combo and Jacket  @Winchy

[Max Power]

Awesome jacket! Did try it on yesterday and found XL too tight and XXL too loose. But I envy you you can pull it off so well.
