Denim looks real nice, what was the weight again?

13-13.5 oz.

Another type II just popped up, this time in a larger size (44).
The body length would never work for me, but I'd love if someone here was able to make it work.

Looks good @Broark and sizing looks good for me but must resist!!

Deffo on the shorter size for a 44 @ 58.5cm - can see it won't work for you extra tall folk though Austin

^^ what year are the jackets from? Were they when Ooe went direct? Apologies if it's been said above!

I believe this run was in 2017, they made them specifically for commonori products, which is defunct. I got lucky and swapped my 38 for a gently worn 40. It is a shorter body jacket for sure but I love it. Would recommend if the measurements track. It runs a bit small but not as small as their jeans. The chest feels closer to true to size but shoulders, arm opening and body length are all on the small end of expected.

@AlientoyWorkmachine thanks for the intell... and you know this now calls for fit pics if you have any to hand they would be welcomed

I’ll try to get one soon. Now that I think of it, since you have a ranch jacket I’d compare the fit to the ranch jacket one size down. Ie my 38 ranch feels pretty similar to the 40 OA, but the OA sleeves are narrower.

That didn't last too long. So who bought it?

Hit me up if it doesn't work out might need to clear some closet space

@MJF9 here - it’s sweltering right now so not actually wearing this now, but hopefully again soon. FC0105 super smooth on the bottom, the best summer jeans I’ve found.

Rare Ooe Yofukuten wabash railroad, so glad I was able to get this. It’s lightweight and so easy to wear.
