hahaaa yeah I know what you mean, but my mind explodes when I see tall dudes wearing jackets obviously too small it looks fucking ridic. You also have to bear in mind my shoulders are abnormally large and my waist is abnormally small which makes life even harder hah.

Also have to bear in mind layering/hoodies/tees etc blah

[DJI]

fuck layering haha, the most you'd be layering under that jawn would be a couple of l/s tees. the obscur leather is already cut longer than a similarly sized RO leather, 2cm difference in the length between sizes isn't going to make that much of a difference. traditionally a leather jacket should reach the end of the coccyx, however I think it looks good worn shorter like on the RO dude (sorry to use pics of this jacket again, just excited to get it ):

[eversuns]

well the haircut seemed to work, I got two job offers today

when I secure one I will do the sides again. Thanks

[btbam]

The measurements are out DJI, you are offering advice at the end of the day its there decision to make so dont worry sir

I am still considering between a M and a L. Comes down to how i want to wear this jacket, Comfortably and thrash it or tight and make it more of a piece.

[gobbledock]

god i love that RO jacket DJ

[DJI]

yeah but I'd feel bad if half a dozen dudes on here got the jacket and ended up with the wrong size due to my advise .

haha, I'd say tight and thrash it bt, it's made from a rigid washed leather so it's made to be beaten .

thanks gb, only RO leather I like enough to own. fingers crossed sizing works out but it's looking good so far .

another example of a short leather jacket (the short sleeves are an acquired taste but if I were to buy a perfecto style rider it'd probably be one from lad):

[btbam]

would kill to see the white jacket on someone styled well. would absolutely killl to see it

Mine will be arriving on Monday :\

[DJI]

looks like you'll have to do the styling for us bt . mine was posted out tuesday just after 3 from NY, how long does first-class mail international usually take? can't wait to get mine either, been moto collar-less for too long haha.

[fenrost]

[Flock]

Mine will be arriving on Monday :\

I have a memory of seeing some dude on SZ wearing one a while ago on waywt, no luck in finding it though

[50_lions]

haha D, I will post again just because the jacket is fucking niiiiiiiice.

To be honest with the info supplied I feel the XL jacket will fit identical to this.

I will still stick to my tall bro/cropped leather no go policy

[gobbledock]

anyone seen this in person? http://www.pitbullmansion.com/products/mens-douglas-fir-shirt

any comments? do CM do any other colours in a similar style?

[jbone]

im sticking to my Large... i'm a lil bigger round the chest then you bt so ill stay with my size

at first i was thinking of changing to an XL at first when i wasnt sure of the measurements and saw you were going the XL 50...

[50_lions]

jbone how tall you man?

[jbone]

im 6'2 bit over 80kg... your 6'5 and like 80kg right?

[btbam]

Im leading towards L just because i want the length in the arms.

Richard E-mailed me tonight so i will be sending through full order as soon as i get to the gallery tomorrow morning.

[jbone]

^ great news... soon to be offcially in the making!

you have a habit of getting the wrong sizes bt haha

[btbam]

lets not go into this please

If this ro doesnt fit i wont sleep untill i find a bigger one.

The thing with the Obscur is they will be numbered, and mine will be 01 so if it doesnt fit, some lucky shit is getting a 01 Medium

[ajax]

sup bt

not the best pics, but AKA*NYC on sz sold to the 2nd guy. exact same jacket in both

edit:

shit how could i forget about this one!!!

[DJI]

damn, how could we have forgotten about that pic of yohji??? +rep when I can A

best of luck with the sizing bt, no one can be no. 1 but you . just hoping the XS ends up being slim enough, otherwise I might have to look into tailoring (couldn't live with myself if I had to sell this one ).

gd CM produced 3-4 plaid shirts this season in a variety of subtle colours (blue, red, green) and fabrics (some in a lightweight fabric, some in boiled wool). expensive but very nice for plaid shirts...

[jbone]

that 1st pic is exaclty how i pictured you'd style it

[jbone]

u know that would be almost funny if you had to sell yours D...

the creator of the idea and the one who misses out haha

[nufish]

the 1st pic makes me want one.. even i do have a black one...

[DJI]

thanks jb...

[50_lions]

How could I forget about the other CM colours, I have epic tunnel vision.

truth. i really love these shirts. i might have to pick up the olive/green one soon. sucks that i missed out on the decent materials, i'll have to settle for polyester.

[nufish]

just a quick IC.. is anyone interested in this in sz L?
