@Olly I’ve seen you wearing this on the Gram (or the collared version) and am curious what size you go with.

[Kasi]

Probably be a large

Yeah that's what I'm thinking I'd go with. I'd want it to be pretty trim, and tbh probably wouldn't zip it up too often. Tough call though!

Also random question for anyone in the US who's bought this jacket: did you have to pay duty on it since it's over x amount (I think it's like $800 maybe?). Not a biggie just wondering what the damage is.

I am large…

Have this jacket can zip it and leave it open

Was curious about the Duty,so I googled it but couldn’t find out how much it would  be. The limit is $800 and you pay a percentage of the total price,not just the amount over.

@DrBabyhorse thank you!

There’s one of these in „as new“ condition on German eBay for only 950€, if someone is interested.
If only it was my size

It’s a 40 (L?)

Well, I got mine today, or actually the second one… originally got it in L thinking I could pull it off, but I basically would have had no wiggle room if I put on any kind of weight, and well… I'm getting older, so dadbod is real, actual dad or not

XL fits like a dream, though. What a beautiful jacket, will post some pics when I can — thanks @Max Power and @Chap for giving me a little back n' forth on size questions

[Max Power]

Happy to hear that @popvulture 

[jeffrx]

Can I please have some feedback on the fit here? Thanks guys.

[goosehd]

It looks big to me…

[Giles]

What's it like with the side gussets zippered?

[jeffrx]

@Giles it’s not bad with the side zippers done, snug but do-able. My main concern is the arm length seems just a bit long, but as others have said it might improve a little with creasing. There’s no way I could size down due to my dad bod.

[Giles]

Without meaning to be rude, that is what I am thinking. As you say, the arms will improve with creasing, but they are pretty long. Probably perfect on a bike....but......

[jeffrx]

Thanks!

[nilsson]

Yet another fit pic type of question. First impression is that it's bit too roomy at least with only t-shirt. On the other hand I'm afraid I can't loose any sleeve length as I planned to use it for riding also.

All feedback is welcome!

[Nik]

Looks great maybe a bit long in body, how does it feel sitting down?

[DrPat]

Shoulders, length, and sleeves, and waist look perfect.

I don’t think the chest looks too big either.

[nilsson]

Thanks, it feels a bit long when sitting but opening side gussets help. I'll have to try it on with more than just a t-shirt also but in picture there seems to be quite much room in the back.
