    WTB Thedi Leather jacket size L

    I wear a 42 and they recommended an L. Was too tight - sent it back in exchange for an XL which is coming any day now. If you wear a 40 surprised an L didn't work.

    Hero jacket from new Perry Mason

    Studio production usually gets involved in the actual distressing - sandpaper's a favorite tool. By the drape it's got to be a more supple skin. Looks kind of goat-ish but I've got some ancient thinner calfskin that has sueded the same way. I sent a note to Himel - see what the response is.
