Thank you! Size 38-40ish, even I have jackets in 36 which fit me nice.
Cheers!

Today my Perfecto model 617, made in the USA in the 90's for the European market. Removable lining. Here the belt has been cut (what an idea). Superb, excellent quality steerhide leather. Perfect for this season.

So, I consider this quite a "win". Arrived today - TT Leathers padded biker jacket which I bid a grand total of £14!! Size says 38R but it's very snug and quite short, but guess that was the cut back then. But I'm pretty happy with it, especially for that price. Anyone else have experience with TT?

I had one myself, although the earlier version with the bright red lining.
Same design though, with the exaggerated quilting. Mine was a 38 too and impossibly snug on my then-38 frame, so unfortunately I had to move it on after some minor repairs and treating the leather.
I'll have a root about and see if I can find where I posted about it...

Aha, here we go. It was longer ago than I remembered and in fact the design differed slightly from yours.
I made a whole thread, it turns out.
TT Leathers jacket resto
Spurred by a few recent posts on here, and a restless PayPal account, I bought a battered (battered) old TT Leathers quilt-padded jacket. I scored a proper bargain, I think (you'll remember I operate at the very bottom echelon of jacket pricing), because the eBay seller helpfully used utterly...

Brave Star Ironside 22oz Japanese Salvage denim.
This is after 45 minute cold soak and then worn until dry for a custom fit. A little snug. LOL

Today, my dark brown Schott 115 Perfecto (damned, that color!) with this added collar borrowed from the Schott 630 model. Great combo.

Superdry "shirt" again today as I try to walk off a chest infection that's put me through two courses of antibiotics so far.

Tailored by Glover jacket with Golden Thread vest
This is a very cool design. If you have a photo wearing it from a few feet away that would be preferable.
