Giles, what about the options for zips, can they replace the ball and chain with diamond Talon chain pulls or bell shaped pulls for the chest pockets? Also, how are the upper arms? I recently tried an RMC Buco 46 (I'm typically a 44), and the arms were still way to slim…Not sure if I like the curved yoke seam, think the straight one looks better, can still look like one seam down the arms...

How much will these run?

Thanks!

Graeme, are you typically a size 44 or 46? I know you said the 46 plain was a tad big in the chest and shoulders, did you feel it looked big on you or would it suit you ok? If you don't mind, what is your dimensions? I'm actually in the US, wonder if 14oz would ship internationally???

I'm thinking about ordering a 46 to try out, and returning if doesn't work…hopefully the cut of the jacket allows for some areas to be forgiving, and hopefully I can get my arms through the sleeves...

So depressed… I received a measurement from Lewis at SD of the width of the bicep on a 44 he had in stock, 7 inches...x2 is 14 inches, and my upper arm is 14.5 inches...won't fit. That's crazy, the chest and shoulders would be perfect! I wish they could take the sleeves of a 46 and attach them to the 44...

Thanks for the heads up Jordan23, was that bicep measurement flexed or unflexed?

Thanks for the quick response Davito! You've got killer style, love seeing all the different looks! A+! I'm a US 44 normally, sorry don't know what that translates in Japanese sizing, but here, it is usually a typical Large. I've contacted SuperDenim via email to see if I could get actual measurments of their stock 44 and 46, but have not received any response, and it's been quite a long time…

I know this jacket is a slim fit, and that's fine, but I've been reading a lot about the upper arms being really tight, where if you have athletic arms, it's hard to fit...

Giles, did you ever get that Buco J-100 rendition back after being recut/rebuilt? Or any updates/progress you can speak of, for that project??? Thanks! Steve

New to the forum…Really interested in an RMC Buco J-100, about to pull the trigger, just nervous about the upper arms being too tight, any feedback from current owners would be appreciated! Would hope to at least be able to wear a thin sweatshirt or flannel under it...Also, is the size chart at SuperDenim very accurate?

Thanks!
Steve
