      Hey @goosehd
      Question, on your jacket, do you find the shoulder measurement to be the same as your shirts? I’m kinda worrying the shoulder might be a bit too wide now. 18” tends to be my size in shirts. This jacket is 19”.

        @Mizmazzle How did they measure the jacket and from where to where?  Your question is vague and I’m afraid my response won’t help you if I don’t measure correctly.  You also have to account that jackets are typically layered over a shirt (or two - t-shirt and button up) and may need extra space.

        If I were you, I would just try it on and go from there.  Keep it if it fits and you like it and if it doesn’t move it on and try again.

                          How’s the fit look? I think the shoulders might be a touch wide. But doesn’t look sloppy I don’t think. I’m not sure though. First leather jacket, really. With a UHF under I wouldn’t want it any tighter. Just curious what those with some experience in leather jacket sizing think.

                            I'd give my right bollock for a fit like that…...I was going to say how much I liked it earlier, but thought it was unnecessary.......

                              Yep good to go man IMO–the sleeves will likely shorten a touch as they crease and the combs set in. The shoulders don't look big to me and I am sure you'll appreciate the room--great score!

                              Think it, be it.

                                Thanks chaps!! That’s what my gut told me too. The shoulders were my only apprehension. Time to rock this thing!!!

                                        I bought a Himel Canuck and then a day later my dog almost died with a flipped stomach. It was horrible but he received great care and was back home from the hospital three days later….along with a massive surgery bill. I had instant buyers remorse on the jacket and was concerned I’d be out of pocket $8K for the medical bills. Thank the good Lord in the sky his pet insurance covered the bill the other day…finally.

                                        I decided to take a peak at the leather jacket banished to my closet for potential sell off to help pay the med bills…well, lookey at what we have here….
