I Would chose the 184sm. I think the rest look a bit tight around your belly. Nice jackets all of them

I really like the 519 though. maybe i should keep both :-D

I like the first one. I mean I like them all, but the other ones are kind of tight on you. The Perfecto looks good, too. Welcome!

First one and the flight jacket as an auxiliary!

All of them seems to fit you nicely, at least as I like. There are just a bit long tho.
So pick your prefered one !

I could size one up, but they all become a little baggy and the sleeves will be too long. I'm thinking the leather will stretch a bit too.

Smart way to decide on a jacket! I personally like the mid brown cafe racer the best, but that's just me. I like that color. The style is simple, if you like that.

They all seem a bit tight in the chest when zipped, with some bunching under the arms. They might relax a bit if the leather is lighter weight. Do they feel comfortable?

If you're in milder temps, mostly keep the jacket unzipped, and don't need to layer, then I think the current fit is ideal. The arms and body are plenty long.

I'm comfortable in either model. These are all made from very thick leather. Nothing really compares from what i've seen, where i come from.
The 530 cafe is a bit stiff in the leather, the others are buttery soft.
The 519 perfecto feels the most tight around the waist area.
But there is room enough to fit a hoodie under all the models.

The palomino trucker is an odd color i must say. But in person it is still pretty darn slick.

Keep the dark brown flight jacket - easier to grow old with - it will make a better Dad jacket when you're middle aged

Ha! Smart thinking and another vote for the flight jacket.

Gromulus · Sep 5, 2016

While not my favorite style (with the fur collar), but the flight jacket fits the best. None are too long, just need to tuck your shirt in.

TREEMAN · Sep 5, 2016

To be honest I'm not crazy about any of them.

Phillips88 · Sep 5, 2016

They all look good. I personally like the Perfecto and the Café Racer. Honestly I'm with the rest of the crew, they look a little snug on ya.

The one that's cut like a denim jacket is okay...but leave that cut where it belongs, with a denim jackets.

A definite NO GO on the yellowish one!

I lost track after the 8th jacket. What was the question?

Seb Lucas · Sep 5, 2016

Since you asked - none of those jackets appears to fit especially well. Most look cramped around the shoulder, stomach and sleeves. The flying jacket is big in the stomach and looks baggy from the chest down. Maybe it's the photos.

Sloan1874 · Sep 5, 2016

Would probably have helped if you tuck your shirt in - it's tricky to gauge length otherwise. Not sure about any of them, though.
