Today I’m wearing my dad’s hand-me-down Banana Republic leather jacket. It is not quite as nice as the jackets normally seen here, but my Schott is starting to feel too fitted for my daily office wear. Today I chose comfort. Haha.

I believe I’m starting to like a cropped boxier look, so my next jacket is hopefully a boxy highwayman with the waist tapered in as much as they can.

I know the preference here is a slimmer fit, I was wondering everyone’s thoughts on a boxier fit like this one?

How do we feel about the length of this cross zip?

I think my perspective has become warped due to my foray into 50s style hip-length jackets because now 26+” motorcycle jackets feel wayy too long for my 5’ 9” frame, even though it’s pretty standard for modern patterns.

I sized up from a small to a medium in this jacket for the added chest room, but then everything else got unnecessarily longer, too. Classic OTR probs so may be moving it along.

A much better opinion could be given with the shirt tucked

Gen-you-wine HD denim riding jacket.
From the 2006 motorclothes collection.
US made (for HD) but no sign who by ?
Very good Pocketing and storage.
Not as "70's cool" as Ton's denim offerings, but I of course (am thru'with being cool).
AND no requirement to sew shut the ****er flap !
