Thanks! The jacket feels like a good slim fit and I would admit that the waist may be borderline too slim. I requested that the bottom hem be reduced by 2" total circumference. I've lost a little size on the waist and continuing to lose some more, so at my target weight / build this should be...

I just received my Badalassi J100 in tobacco. I'm very happy with my choice here. I have an Aero seven on order that is spec'd very similar. The Aero seven will be in black badalassi. The jacket is stiff, squeaky, and shiny. This will only get better once broken in :)

I will post pictures after I receive the jackets! :)

I'm very happy I made the decision to go with the badalassi! I was debating between Vicenza and baladassi. I think I made the right choice. All the photos I've seen on this thread as well as other baladassi threads show that this is a beautiful leather.

I can certainly appreciate this thread! I have an Aero seven on order in black badalassi, and a board racer j-100 on order in tobacco badalassi. Both were requested to use leather with extra grain. I'm happy to see that badalassi is still a popular choice and not the flavor of the month.

Yea, I certainly see how this can become addicting! So many awesome leather choices, colors, jacket styles, etc. I'm going to try not to jump too far down the rabbit hole. I think 3 to 4 well fitted leather jackets should be fine! Lol. I've got seal covered, and just ordered a black vicenza...

Thanks TartuWolf, I'd say that while it feels snug, it doesn't feel uncomfortable. It's more snug zipped than unzipped. I probably will wear unzipped 99% of the time anyways.

Hi Canuck, thanks for the feedback! I will be visiting my Tailor soon so I'll bring the jacket and ask his opinion on the fit of the jacket and why the / \ crease. Your jacket looks great! I'll be curious to know your thoughts on the pinnacle leather once you get your Premier Aero...

Thanks Aloysius for the feedback! I think I just need to get used to the feel of leather. I hardly wear any jackets here in Florida, but we do have our occasional jacket weather. I'll be happy to wear this when weather permits, or when on vacation in cooler climates.

It feels a little snug but okay. In the picture where I'm standing sideways, does the loose material in the body of the jacket seem okay? I wonder if a good tailor could make an alteration to make a better fit?

Hello, This is my first leather jacket. It's an Aero premier highwayman in goat size 40. It definitely feels snug and there are areas where the leather bunches. Is this an indicator of a bad fit? Will this improve with some break in time? The dimensions on this jacket are similar to a...
