The new official TOJ thread, 2011 - Page 1689

Actually, Drew, there are still size charts on the John Coppidge website.

Anyway, I think Drew's really right about sizing. Most people just don't need MTM, and this thread fusses about it way way too much. Suit style width x height is good enough for the vast majority of people.

Most people don't need a $700 leather jacket but it's available and within means.

These are different applications of the word "need" lol

Yes, but that period is over.

If you guys did that with baby lamb spanish merino....I would pay any premium. Add a variety of colors....would order every color lol!

Navy Calf DR - Arm holes and shoulders are quite snug, does it look too small?

AriGold I actually thought you could be Ari Gold til now lol. i like the fit but a little tight on the chest .

What's up with all the bunching in the back? Making me really question my decision to go gunmetal hardware...

ha ha i recognized the street cleaning signs

Want see new jacket!

no one needs anything on here, want on the other hand.

Is the gun metal hardware still available?

 

Not quite, I'm still waiting... yet again, as much as I would love to agree with you. =(

Yeah, the biker style jackets coming out now have had a production time of approx 3½ months. But that's not to say that if you put in an order now, it will take more than 8 weeks to ship.

As you should be...I have owned both gunmetal and silver, and the silver is crazy cool - takes the jacket to a different level. Makes the gunmetal look almost dirty.

Ari, is the jacket new? Wear it around the house for like 10-20 hours zipped up, if it's lamb it will stretch to you. I have significantly wider delts than most guys, and mine almost looked like yours when I first got it, and I was kinda disappointed, but over time it really morphs to your body. I can picture that leather fitting you really nicely in a few weeks - just get your hands all over it (seems like oil from my hands has changed the leather a bit? maybe just my imagination), throw it on the floor at night, don't baby it. It'll break in nicely. Cool leather color, too.
