@AdamJ thank you
I will cop the Large

I have been considering getting this jacket as something to ride in for highway days and trips, and was curious if anyone has any experience in skid resistance to this jacket being 21oz? I know it wont be as good as leather but being 6'4" I have yet to find leather that is comfortable to ride in for longer days.

@SOREILLY Having come off while learning in my 21oz jeans i'd say they came out of it fairly well, albeit a fairly low speed in the wet - so 'ideal conditions' for sliding . . . but to be blunt they are no replacement for kevlar in terms of skid resistance, nor can we claim them to be protective in any way. How they'd compare to leather I couldn't say, would depend on the leather and conditions.
21oz is a heavy weight for denim, but it's still denim at the end of the day so I wear a kevlar layer underneath for peace of mind. Will be decent protection against the elements though! 21oz is decently warm in the winter and nice and breathable in the summer.

@SOREILLY greetings fellow tall person! I also am 6'4" nearly 6'5". I also had a time finding a nice leather jacket both due to torso and sleeve lengths. Then I stumbled upon Master Supply Co leather. After a few emails(with the owner Josh)we had a plan. I ordered the jacket that would fit me the best but not fit right, and from there we added the length needed. It took less than 4 weeks to get it all wrapped up and for a great price. And I finally have a leather jacket that fits. And looks awesome imo of course! Pic for reference!

@indigostiff it is! I have the Type 3 with the hand warmers, as well as Type 2's, and do feel I need this version as well!

@Tago-Mago ...I'm on a bit of a purchasing hiatus as I'm planning a few things. That and we met with our financial advisor the other day. Overall we've been doing pretty well over the years, but we've decided to turn things up a notch of two. With the current Canadian dollar doing poorly, we decided we may need a few extra coins in retirement.

What size is he wearing?
I'm always L in IH denim shirts but I think the Large for this jacket may be too small for me in the chest/wait. Is XL the right way to go? -

I can’t help with that. In fact I can do the exact opposite
