Damn, there have been some real nice jackets in this thread lately. Makes me want to add something to the collection.

I put a deposit down on a Langlitz Columbia. I am now in the "que". Scott said they are running about 2 months out. I am hoping to get it around Halloween. I have about a month or so to get all my details ironed out. I am going with medium cow for sure. I hope it is on par with Vanson's competition weight.
It seems like Langlitz leathers are the Cadillac of RIDING jackets. Every function and feature is geared toward MC use. The pics and reviews on this forum are phenomenal. I hope I can contribute to them.

Very exciting.
Of all my jackets I love my Langlitz the best.
Rest assured the medium cowhide is excellent protection and robust.
My next Langlitz will likely be the lighter cow or even the horse for casual use only.
The fit is amazing if you get the numbers right. Simply follow carefully the instructions from Langlitz.
Also check the Japanese modifications for possible options you may not have considered. Google images.

A padded Columbia with Cascade collar and sleeve zips/pockets would be great for riding.

I am a little nervous about the measurements and fit. I really hope it works out. I have read all the threads on here and have been combing through the Japan site. I really dig the horsehide Columbia with the silver hardware (a little out of my price range). Your Langlitz looks great. One of the reasons I pulled the trigger.

Thanks J. You were the one that told me to get it. I am blaming you. LOL.

It will definitely work out because if they get it wrong the first time they will remake your jacket for you.
Obviously it would be best if it came out perfectly the first time but it is nice to know that they stand behind their product and your satisfaction 100%
Keep us posted as you go through the order process, always fun to see a new Langlitz taking shape!
I hope they get it right the first time. They did remake one for me. Wish they did it a little different. Going with medium fit the shoulders were wide and sleeves very long. Also I specified the front extra long having read about people getting a short front. I wonder if you could just give them measurements you want and skip the guess work on their end

This is inbound, Aero Chips in Midnight Blue CXL. Some basic specs:
Size 40 with 2" taper. About one inch off sleeve, stock body length.
Sleeve zips on top of sleeve
Dark Navy Blue stitching. I went from olive, to black to the recently available navy blue.
Wine sateen lining in body, black in sleeves
Hidden snaps on collar, removed grommets. Needed them in case I ride in the jacket.
No interior pockets, side laces or belt loops. Nice and clean.
Brass Talon zips
Ready for this one to arrive.
Did they strap it to the back of a damn turtle? Man I'm dying to hear your thoughts, I suspect they'll be similar to mine when I first opened the PHWM.
