Leather Jacket Armholes
Yes..I suspect it might be shoulder to shoulder as opposed to body barrel size.. Definitely researching this one in time for final measurements- Tim Tempest

Leather Jacket Armholes
Yeah the 44'' barrel would of been ok if the arm holes had been..farther apart I suppose..Going up to 46'' didnt change that..so I guess I need to include like shoulder to shoulder measurements..I'll ask Chloe.. That front quarter horse hide though..love it..warms up nice in the sun- Tim Tempest

Leather Jacket Armholes
Yes this thread is the closest to my problem although I am not certain that arm holes are the problem... I'm on my second Aero chips,having gone from a 44" to a 46" & while there is plenty of actual chest room,it is still annoyingly tight around the back/shoulders/arms..or one or more of those...- Tim Tempest

How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?
I really like Robbie79's RMC B3..what gorgeous leather..makes me wish I'd not gone with Eastman's 'time worn'.. Anyway I was lucky enough to find this (chest 42")Schott on E bay (Thanks,Dom)..- Tim Tempest

How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?
I just got two dark brown Levi's truckers off e bay..one M & one L..for some reason they saw fit to remove the leather patch by the hanger & cut off the red tabs from by the chest pocket(s).. Got an Aero waiting to be cut (for summer) & an Eastman I bought a while back for winter- Tim Tempest

Levi's Trucker Jacket in Buffalo Leather
I had one but it was way too long..I lost a lot of weight so the XL ended up way too long.. If youre a 44" go for a M or L..(M is 41-44" whereas L is 44-47" so it can be tricky gauging if you need M or L)..I ended up giving mine to a big lanky friend- Tim Tempest

Looking for a shearling jacket for winter, any advice for B3,B6,D1 or other?
22"..just something I read on a thread here..that Aero's was thicker.. Regarding Cockpit..their sizing is terrible..at least the midnight trucker I bought in large..the body was long like a coat & massively wide around my torso) yet it was way too tight under my armpits/shoulders/back..& it cost...- Tim Tempest

Thoughts on my new Eastman Rough Wear B3 jacket
Here's my 'time worn' finish..it looks similar.. Very happy with it..wouldnt think it needs Picards for years..the zip was on the wrong side but otherwise a perfect fit.. True the redskin is better but when I ordered it said the rough wear had broken grain so I went for the time worn but that...- Tim Tempest

Heh yes I think I got mixed up reading another thread..ok so I have placed a preliminary order for the Aero D1.. Kinda galling to think I could of bought an Aero D1 AND Aero horsehide trucker for the price of Cockpit USA's lame 'Midnight trucker'.. I had read that Aeros shearling was 22" vs...- Tim Tempest

Looking for a shearling jacket for winter, any advice for B3,B6,D1 or other?
This is a great thread..I came into some money & have been looking for a B3,A B6 or D1 & a trucker jacket & already I have experienced the old buyer's remorse..I looked at over 30 manufacturers.. I ordered the midnight trucker from Cockpit USA..the off peg fit was atrocious..way too long &...- Tim Tempest
