It took me about 45 minutes to get it buttoned up over a UHF and I was sweating like a whore in church… but I think the jacket fits me great. Like it was made for me almost.
My photographer can barely operate a phone so I apologize for the crappy pics.

It gave me hell trying to get it back off just now.

Thanks pal
@Mustafa911 please see below.
@Filthy:I've been drooling over the Leon but I think the 46 might still be too small, as it's got a 45" chest
I think you might be surprised. I know it's a different jacket. But my chest is almost a 47 with an UHF and my jacket is plenty roomy in the chest.
@setandsetting
My jacket has plenty of room in the chest. I would contact Self Edge and discuss.
FWIW I weighed 226.7 this morning, I am 5'11", my iron heart tagged size in pants would be a 37 if they made one. So I am either a 36 or 38 depending on the jean.

FYI.. Mike bought the last 46 we had and Fine Creek has no plans to make these again. When they do make a jacket model a second time it's usually at least a year or two after the first release.

Thank a lot @twin !! I appreciate the inspiration you gave me to buy it.
@kiya I feel extremely fortunate to have gotten the last one. Like you were telling me, the sleeves have shortened up into the creases now and the length is just right.
No lie, I got 5(!) compliments on my jacket this evening while I was out.
This dude from Boston that was a Marine I had never met before yelled to me as I was leaving, "Nice jacket!" So I went over to say hi and told him about your website. He said, that jacket would, "give the Fonz a hardon!" -
you should definitely be on their marketing payroll @twin one of the things I like about the jacket (on you) is the wider sleeve openings and the larger biceps area. The other thing that got me about the jacket is the sheen of the leather. It looks awesome on you. Thanks a lot.

I’m envious guys, truly I am. The broad shoulder and larger biceps measurements of the VB would be nice to have but I need to do some real research. That sheen is magnificent and making it hard to resist.
Are these jackets pretty warm? How miserable is it to move in?Which jacket do you have Chap? I also like the buckle back and profile…

@Anesthetist it hurts so good. Like my thumbs were all banged up trying to get the buttons done up today. Well, between that and my sewing awl leather patch project I did earlier.
The jacket is like 25 oz XHS denim in a way… it's thick and tough. But I think the payoff will be worth it in the end. I had to button and unbutton the jacket several times while I wasn't wearing it to get it even close to being manageable.
It's stiff but isn't too bad over the new ihsh-277 I wore tonight. I really enjoyed wearing it tonight.
