Well it was a full price item but I used a 40% coupon on it plus i got a gift card with $100 in it for $70. Basically it cost 383.25, but I got it for $200!

I like it...not as nice as a TOJ leather but it's still pretty sweet.

There's also a specific thread for these kinda questions

I'd return it for one size smaller. I'm not into the skin tight fit that some SF members are into but it's clearly too big.

That's the problem with BR and other shit brands, they always run big.

It's to cater the fat Americans. I think he said got a small in his initial thread. If so, he can't size down anymore. I personally would've saved up the $200 and get a ToJ Bomber.

Yep I do have a small already. In fact, it fits quite snug. Any smaller and it would be hard to move in it. This size is quite comfortable. When zipped up all the way, it hardly has any space between my body and the jacket.

We've seen much worse than this on SF. Looks above average for what it is IMO.

Leather will stretch a bit over time, should keep that in mind. While the body may be OK, looking at your pics...the sleeves look too long. Your arms are bent and the length is almost already touching your knuckles. Again, I would personally return it. I spent so much money last year at Banana Republic because of their 40% off coupon and I wouldn't wear most of that crap again. A better fit would be like the jacket in these pictures IMO. http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...&postcount=995
