IHJ-129-BRN - Japanese Horsehide Riders Jacket - Brown

[Daniel San]

@ARNC
great fit and it will be even better when broken in !

[DrPat]

@ARNC it's hard to find a leather jacket that fits better than that.

The arms, length, chest, and shoulders all look perfect.

[ARNC]

Thanks @goosehd @Daniel-San @DrPat! At the moment I think it looks great but I’m still getting used to how it feels. I’ve seen comments on the threads for previous iterations of these jackets that they feel smaller than they really are at first and that going too big initially is a mistake, so I think I’m good. Appreciate having confirmation that I’m not deluding myself!

[Daniel San]

It’s that horse hide thing , it just takes time to mould. feels strange when new cause it’s so stubborn even worse than a Lefty
But this will significantly change after some wear.

[ARNC]

@Daniel-San thanks. I haven’t experienced the lefty yet, but makes sense. It also ties in with my decision to go with dimensions similar to my type iii jackets (and this is the point I should probably give a nod to @Bailey for pre-sale guidance).

Couldn't agree more with the previous sentiments, perfect fit!

[ARNC]

@T4920 thanks. I think I just need to get used to it (like you with your wabby pants - they look great btw)!

[Twistlock]

Perfect fit. Looks rad @ARNC !

[ARNC]

@Twistlock thanks!

[jerkules]

Honestly it looks made for you @ARNC congratulations

Add a slow clap from me, @ARNC

Awesome

[dinobarnesberlin]

dude--you nailed it

[doubletee]

@ARNC looks perfect to me. Any bigger and some of the proportions will be off. Got to try this on the other day and ‘that’s a f*cking jacket’ was the general consensus

[ARNC]

Thanks guys!

@doubletee it definitely is – you weren’t tempted?

[Giles]

I'd be more than happy with that......Congrats....

[ARNC]

@Giles I am, I just need to get used to it. Thanks!

[Giles]

Yeah, you will love it more each time you wear it.....

[Nik]

Looks really cool @ARNC

[ARNC]

Thanks @Nik. I find myself trying it on most times I go past the coat cupboard and (as G said) each time I love it more!

[weftyarn]

Hell yeah @ARNC this looks impeccable! Wear it well and welcome to the horse team
