    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!

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

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

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

          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.

            The arms look good to me, especially riding. Shoulders could be a bit narrower, body a bit shorter and more trim. It depends however how you like to wear it. I like them rather snug.

              Holy cow! This jacket is incredible. Bought the SE version, and my mind is blown. That flannel liner is so sweet.

                    has it ever been asked why this jacket doesn't have zippered side pockets compared to the one with collar?

                      Because I designed the IHJ-54 (one with pockets), and I like pockets.... 🙂

                        zipped pockets are brilliant for riding. maybe you could convince Haraki that this pair may be in need of pockets 😉

                          Has anybody by any chance ever treated this leather in an attempt to make it less shiny? From what I’ve gathered seeing people’s extended wear pics, the shine really tends to stick around. I wouldn’t mind if mine were a bit more matte, so I’m wondering if there’s any way to knock that down a bit.

                            @popvulture I really like the tea-core black but it does look a bit shiny for my taste. If I had one, I'd be looking to do the same. I'd be a bit worried about using products that would dry it out bad. The deglazer I used on my wallet, for example, does dry out the leather and makes it look a bit parched. Nothing a little buff with some leather balm can't fix but it'd be a lot of work on a jacket. Maybe something a little more mild at first like a soapy wet washcloth? If you used something mildly abrasive you'd probably end up with a bit of fauxtina. Just spitballin here....you could always roll around in the mud or gravel.

                              @WhiskeySandwich thank you my dude! I thought your leather skills would def come in handy here. I read some stuff about deglazing online — some people online said with alcohol — but that sorta felt like too much of a big move, and I’m not sure I’d wanna push it that far. The soap and water thing does seem like a great way to just dull any shiny topcoat. I’m gonna try that! I’ve been just throwing it around and being fairly careless with it, but short of dragging it through gravel I think it’s gonna stay shiny as-is.

                                @popvulture I am by no means skilled in leather, but I dabble and experiment bit. I think the trick here would be to alter the surface texture of it by ever so slightly abrading it, rather than taking chemicals or anything to it, for sure. Good luck and be sure to show us how it goes!

                                  Wiped it down with a little bit of Dawn and water, let it sit for a sec then used just water to wipe it down again. It’s hanging up in the sun. Still shiny, but I definitely think this took it down at least a notch or two.

                                    @popvulture i'm interested in how things go. Def better to incrementally adjust than to just hit it with some rubbing compound on an orbital 😉

                                      If UH flannels fit me well in a large, should I go with a large in this jacket? Thanks

                                        Hello there, does someone have recent pictures of this beauty ? Specially with traces of worn.

                                        Im interested in buying one.
