      @jiminstitches Perfect fit and jacket! Awesome build that you can see a lot of time and thought went into.

        @goosehd agreed on all counts. And I really love the rear yoke seam.

          @Mizmazzle Ah thank you, Its the Natural Italian Veg Tan, Yeah debs said they'd be slightly long but would ride up with wear.

              @goosehd The detail is incredible. I gotta say what an absolutely amazing company Simmons Bilt are and Debs has been so awesome. The attention to detail in the emails and getting everything right was great and at no point did I feel rushed. Very Happy😀Ive been wearing it in the house all evening.

                @jordanscollected The rear yoke is my favourite path of the jacket.👌

                  @jiminstitches ah interesting. I know they were looking for a new supplier for the Natural Veg Tan leather. Looks to be quite nice!!!

                    @jiminstitches I’ve seen a few jackets on here that have really stood out fit and finish wise. Your’s is one of them and I’m thinking to myself if I should get the build details from you.

                    I have enough jackets to last two lifetimes, but your’s has me questioning if I should start working on a third 🙂

                    Congrats!!

                      @goosehd I kind of knew the fit was great once I put in on but to get that reassurance from you all is awesome! Thanks Guys🙏

                      Dude totally! drop me a DM, more than happy to give you the details👍

                      Im going to order a Trucker from them but i'm going to wait a year as I really wanna put some miles on this jacket!

                        Can’t wait to see it once your V85TT gets a chance to work on it. It’ll only get better. Post pics!!

                          Looks awesome. How are the sleeves with the gusset zipped up? Would be cool to see more detail of the leather in outdoor light.

                            @Nik Ill get some outdoor pics. Ive not zipped them up yet and I will probably just wear them unzipped. How's yours getting on?! Did the sleeves ride up at all?

                              This has had me checking the SB website..

                              £575 for the jacket + £75 the natural horsehide, £650 total? No hidden costs assuming your not getting a custom pattern made?

                                @T4920 yes so that would be basic price for off the peg size. Process started with me sending all my measurements and of good fitting items. Deb then recommended a size 38 as the base pattern. From there I had 3 adjustments, chest was widened, shoulders altered and I had half an inch off the length. Those 3 alterations were an additional £40.

                                I then added a 2 way brass zipper and an extra inside pocket and a different lining, I went with olive. Total for that was about an extra £70.

                                Me and debs did have probably a good 20-30 emails going through measurements.

                                Fantastic service.
