      A little tighter in the waist than what I wanted, but I think a good fit overall. What do you all think?

        @Wlemon how will you wear it, open or closed?

            My personal opinion is that the last pic looks great with it open and cuffed. Really very cool. The first pic looks like the waist is a little tight as you say and the jacket looks a little "stuffed". But that is me, and it's based on photos, not RL.

              I felt a bit stuffed. LOL. I ask if there's another jacket in that size that has a little larger waist.

                Or just wear it open. The last pic is ridiculously cool.

                  Or I can loose 5 to 10 pounds. Both would be cool.  🙂

                    I agree with this man. That last pic looked like something out of a catalog.

                    I never button mine up, FWIW.

                              that fit looks good to me @Wlemon I've a Pronto TypeI I'll never be able to button but to hell with it. One size up and the sleeves will be over your hands

                              Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                              Well, I have others.

                                That's what I am afraid of. Everything fits perfectly. Don't want to go up one more.

                                  Living in CA, you (and I) could probably get away with that year round.

                                    Keep it. Always wear it open unless you get really cold and FTW.

                                        I'm seriously thinking of buy in this jacket in a XXL. Most of the measurements are the same as my modified 526 except length. This is I've 1.5 inches shorter.

                                        What are your experiences?

                                          Hi Giles, have you ever thought of maybe adding an inch or two in body length to this jacket? the current length is about the same as in the unmodified version. A slightly longer torso would make it perfect, in my opinion. Thanks!
