Freewheelers San Mateo

As you seen in my last post, 44 centinela is too large for me.
therefore I decided to try one size smaller, and fortunately there is a 42 san mateo 2019 ver in stock, the price is 290000 jpy
the hide is the same as other 19 ver (centinela, la brea, mulholland), perfect, stiff, shining, strong chemical smell as it is brand new
the design looks super cool, a butterfly-like pussy on the front chest, very crazy but i love it
about the fit, i am 180 height, 80 weight, 103 chest, 51 shoulder
i feel comfortable on the chest, but tight on the waist, sleeve and shoulder
as there is no underarm gussets with SM, which centinela, mulholland and la brea have
so the mobility is slightly restricted, but I think it is better than real mccoy j-82, since the waist is tied, the jacket would not be dragged up and down by arm movement
i can barely zip to the top as the sleeve is tight, as you see i cannot reach the button myself.
overall i am impressed with this jacket, and I am lucky to try top 3 mc leather jackets of freewheelers in same year, centinela, la brea, san mateo
as for size, for freewheelers leather jackets ( of same year same size of course),
it should be:
centinela < san mateo < brakeman = four corners < (slightly) mulholland < la brea < journeyman, (havent tried caboose and swithyard, but i heard that caboose is smaller while switchyard is larger, if I put mulholland as the reference)

I almost spitted out my coffee at “a butterfly like pussy” :D looool

The jacket fits you well in the pictures. If you are restricted in movements that isn’t great but it depends if you can live with it.

yeah it is a little bit, but within acceptable interval, thats why i decide to take it
yeah, SM looks like a butterfly pussy, centinela like pig's eight tits

Fits you pure ten IMO but now that the pussy is out of the bag, that's exactly what this jacket's always been reminding me of and this one's got two of 'em going on at once. But that's kind of really neat, now that I think about it. Maybe even intentional. That's some serious Freud business going on all over it.

But anyway, it's great. Only needs a belt. Do they make one?

Congrats and good choice! IMO it looks perfect and not too tight - this jacket should be worn rather right and as long as you can move and lift your arms everything should be OK. If I was you I would keep this one as the Centinela was too big.

As good as it gets! It looks perfect but only you can judge wether it feels restrictive or not.

I don’t think you should size up. Either this one or none at all. A bigger size would look big.
This. If you don't think it's comfortable, then this model just won't work for you. I think this 42 looks great, but if it's uncomfortable then you just need a different jacket model.

The style of motocycle leather jacket is tight fit, therefore it is doomed to be little uncomfortable. i just need to get used to it, then everything is fine.
