After 3 YEARS on the forum I finally have a jacket that is worth posting about.
Thanks JCSD for the Brakeman.

Barely 2 mins after this I was trying to get it off lol!

This is 3 LONG YEARS in the making for these lousy photos.

I hope I don't have to wait 3 more years for this jacket to become more season and for the A shape bottom to go away.

Way to hang in there Mawashi! Great looking jacket! I love those. JCSD has some seriously nice stuff. I see what you’re talking about regarding the A shape. My FL does the same thing. I’m keeping an eye on it hoping it will relax. I may send it to Dena for fitting because I love the jacket and would like a little more bespoke fit. I’m not recommending that for you. Just thoughts I’m having about mine. A little commiserating. Anyway, well done and wear it in good health!

If you've been in the labor room, you know it's freezing. 65degF with the AC blasting. I had to wear my "leather security blanket" for the arrival of my first child!

Congratulations, you now have a new title; "Father", it will change every aspect of your life, you will feel everything ten times stronger then before-good and bad. Buckle up, it's a hell of a ride:)

Hey jadub, I'm loving this brakeman and I'm wearing it as I type to break it in before my Nov trip to Japan. My gf is rolling her eyes at me again...

I love and curse having heard JCSD name I wish I never got to know him or his jackets lol.
I'm in Singapore there is zero reason for me to wear leather jackets worse, there's a bug I picked up from this board too. This stupid leather addiction.

As much as I wanna get rid of the A A$$ I personally wouldn't sent it to be altered. I don't want to take away the experience of making the jacket fit me the natural way but, let's see how patient I am on this lol.

Congrads Kevin O'Sullivan on being a dad, fuhgettabout jackets man this is life giving you something you and your wife made all on you own. That's a custom fit!
