Lewis Leathers Motorcycle Jacket (Fit Question)

[ykurtz]

I've seen some nice Lewis Leathers jackets on TFL, and as I am getting a Triumph Bonneville T100 in a few weeks, I was toying with the idea of staying 'British' and procuring a motorcycle jacket from Lewis Leathers. I like the Dominator and Roadmaster. From a fit perspective, does Lewis work with you on tweaking measurements prior to making the jacket? I will likely need a shorter jacket and sleeves given my frame. I'm pretty sure that they would, but thought to ask. Also, any pics of Dominators and Roadmasters 'in the flesh'?

In my experience they will allow you to tweak pretty much everything!

I went there, tried on a a couple regular models, then asked for extra length, extra tapering, and wider shoulders and it was all fine by them.

Here is my thread on the subject:

Yes, Carlos is correct. I guess we are lucky enough to be in living in London. My 391 was made to measure with shoulder widen, sleeve shorten, and jacket lengthen. There is also something which they do not state in their website or their London shop, they have something call the tight fit models, which, initially are mainly for the Japanese market. But if you want that slimmer tight fit look, you may want to ask them as well. I tried on a a 'T' jacket, but my shoulders seems a bit too wide for the size.
