Yes it is. I really love the leather used on these jackets. Gives them an almost luxurious feel. FWIW, my jacket is a size 34. I'm 5'7 and 136lbs and take a small usually, and took a chance on this one given it was being sold at a good enough price for the risk. As you can tell, snug but what...

Didn't think to get measurements. Assumed a 34 was a 34, so live and learn. I've contacted the seller to see if I can get a chest measurement before he sends it off. I did use Paypal. Given that Schott recommended XS of their USA jackets for me(one reason why I decided not to go for the Per41) I...
