@pechelman Interested in pics when you receive it and love to know your thoughts.

I've got my money on the L being the way. With leather jackets, especially black ones with that rock n' roll-y vibe, I feel that trim as possible while still maintaining mobility / comfort is the ideal. I think you'll still have room in the shoulders and chest, plus the areas right now that look a little too big (bottom opening, sleeves, overall length) will get in the right range for you.

[pechelman]

The bottom is hem is being a bit flared out partly because it's a skosh big, but also because it sits lower on my shorter torso so is being pushed out by whatever hips are there. In this case, I think the gussets actually exacerbate this because of the excess fabric bunched up here.

What a great look @pechelman

Sizing down is a good idea unless you want to exclusively wear it over a long sleeve + UHF

Looking forward to see pics of the L!

[pechelman]

hopefully you'll have a partner soon to help "spam" this thread

[weftyarn]

I’m sure it’s not only me who will be happy about that

@pechelman Too big. It doesn't give off a cool vibe.

[pechelman]

Size down arrived and think this is an easy decision.

Over a tee and 12oz wabby. Side shot is with the jacket zipped. Can see tension around then hem for sure.

Over a tee, same deal with it being zipped in the side

@pechelman I think it looks great on you, the skin molds to the body quite easily, after some time you'll be able to layer even more if you want.

Love it man looks killer

[Brandrea]

@pechelman much better, congratulations!

[weftyarn]

Yup, that’s perfect @pechelman
Now please thrash the hell out of it (and spam spam this thread!)

[weftyarn]

The horse is back in town!

[doubletee]

Damn that horse is fine

[pechelman]

Sea horse spam. Loving this jacket. Surprised by its warmth on this chilly walk. Also this leather is so different from any other horsehide I've felt; this is so soft compared to others that feel stiffer and almost brittle.

@pechelman Nice photo and jacket.

[weftyarn]

Never seen a sea horse like that! Amazing fit @pechelman keep the spam going.

[weftyarn]
