Got my 4th TOJ, and first varsity today. I had gone with a size 50 in my MA-1 and it was super tight, so got kinda spooked, and went with a size 52 + some added sleeve and body length. This one is definitely more wearable, though I still think my sweet spot TOJ size would be a 51, as this ones a little boxy/loose with just a t-shirt one. With a few layers, it fills out perfectly though. 6'3", 165lbs for reference. Anyways, happy overall. If the looseness bugs me, maybe I'll consider tailoring it a bit, but I think once it breaks in it'll be fine.
Apologies for the photobooth fit pics.

HELICOPTER SWAGGG!!!!

something like a stock 52 would probably be best. Seems like people messing up sizing are on the small side for the most part.

The size was..... wait for it...... made to measure.

Dbear and I figured the CM size out in two easy steps - he gave me the measurements from his last MTM TOJ leather, showed me a fit pic where I could see how it fit, and then we went with the same thing but adjusted to his taste.

Anybody can do the same thing if they measure a slim fitting jacket, send the measurement set to Charly, and then show him a fit pic. It is not rocket science. There have been a lot of good fits lately, I sized those people using a few different methods but they achieve the same result.

Just testing out my guessing skills. Trying to train myself to size by eye ;p

Thanks Drew and Company. Could not be happier with the jacket and the fit. :nodding: Brown Lamb Collard Moto.









For my wallet's sake, I sincerely hope this stops at 2, but all bets are off if that Dark Whiskey Calf ever comes back...maybe in some future 2012 new model...



New revised collar which looks ******* great and would never have happened if a select few of us hadnt spoke up about the other collar looking awful.

Guess it wasnt just "the collars got smashed in shipping!" after all, since yours is clearly new and displays none of the "lilypad effect" which none of the other collared leathers have ever exhibited but which drew oddly claimed was from shipping even though he knew it was a problem with the pattern because he knew that everyone would just bend over and take it and then silently redesigned it because he knew I was right even though he, nor any one else here will ever admit it.

YOURE WELCOME ROOKIES.

Except where the jackets haven't been cut to the measurements agreed upon. I've sent a couple of emails through about this with my MDR, if I could get a response back it would appreciated.
