Hello everyone! Finally got out to take some pictures of my new premier 30s half belt. I have had it for a week and could not be more happy. I think Carrie did a great job and was very patient with me.

Its the brown CXL steerhide, olive drab stitching, size 40 with .5 inches to the body and the sleeves. I also added a wind flap for riding the motorcycle and an inside pocket for my Swigg flask ;-)

That looks great!
Congratulations!

Interesting to see that the Half-belt is higher up on yours than most. Dont get me wrong, I think yours looks fantastic on you- sits right where it should. Just that on most jackets it is lower. I think higher is more vintage. Actually on repros they seem to be all over the place.

that's a really nice jacket, congratulations! I recently got a standard 30's half belt, if I were a bit more slender I would definitely had gone for a premier fit! Enjoy it!

Very nice Premier HB that appears to fit the OP well. My personal experience is that a Premier HWM was too tight for me in the chest and shoulders, particularly the shoulders, but fit me well in the lower torso. Like Harris HTM a standard 1930's HB seems to best fit my frame. And the Sheene / Cafe Racer with 1" added to each side panel (2" to the circumference of the waist) fits me to perfection. All about pattern(s) that work for each of us. And this premier pattern obviously works well for the OP.
