That contrast stitching on the upper is real purdy. Love the detail on back of the boot.

Size-wise, I got the Attractions a half size larger than the Flathead boots. For reference, I wear a size 7 (U.S.) in Iron Rangers, 7.5 in Converse Chuck Taylor's, and wear the Flathead in 7 and the Attractions in 7.5. The Flathead is chromexcel which is much more supple than the Attractions...

Yep, the fit looks great. Any jacket I have that had a belt is typically belted to one of the smallest belt holes. Just a benefit of not having much of a gut

Picked up a pair of Attractions Lot 444 horsebide engineers boots recently. Here are some shots I took alongside my pair of Flathead engineer boots, which have a slightly shorter shaft, that I've owned for about 4 years.

I like the pulls on the front of the jacket but the sleeve pulls were driving me nuts and were removed after about 15 minutes in the jacket.

New ELMC Roadstar. Forgive the crappy mirror photo with the tags still attached.

For those of you who own this jacket, or others with leather pulls on the sleeve zippers, what are your thoughts on them? My initial instinct is that they are annoying and I want to remove them but they certainly make zipping the sleeves nicer. Should I give them a chance and see if I warm to them?

They certainly have terrific customer service but it is surprising their measurements are so far off. Maybe the folks that are more likely to work in a retail store tend to be people less experienced with online shopping because they tend to have access to retail locations. It's also...

So I just grabbed one of these during Standard and Strange's recent sale. I also got a size 40 and agree that their measurements are very inaccurate. Here are my measurements for sz 40: P2P: 22" Front length: 24.75" Back length: 24.25" Shoulders: 18.25" Sleeve (measures around the curve)...

SOLD

Pending sale.

14" p2p? Maybe he meant 19". Cool looking jacket.

I'd prefer to keep all correspondence on TFL. Send me a PM if you'd like to discuss on here.

Hadn't noticed that, thanks for sharing. I guess mine is the version before the current one.

That's interesting, taking a closer look at your photos, your zipper appears to end much higher than mine. Is yours an older version of the jacket? I'm not sure that I've seen that on other Flathead jackets.
