Willy or anyone for that matter? Are there any fit pics of the TOJ1 that was made with a navy body, black sleeves, and black ribbing?

Trust me but you wouldn't want it tighter around the waist. To be honest, it looks really good and just as slim as needed.

My moto. It's a little lose around the waist, and the arms are a little slim for me. But I love it already (thanks Krishthefish!).


Many here buy their TOJs very slim and so did I. I went true to size and the jacket fitted me perfectly. Although, now I think that I could have sized up for a more comfortable fit.

looks like you have a small upper body compared to your legs, and a tight/short moto just doesn't really look appealing imo


It looks fine to me. I think for somebody else's MTM jacket fitting him like that, that's pretty damn good. Overall fit looks fine and balanced.

What's that multiplier formula for determining relaxed/ slim/ skinny fit from body measurements? Also, when people make sizing mistakes, is it more common to err on the side of too tight or too big? Just sent in measurements for a GDL/UMDR and I'm second-guessing myself like crazy.


Don't worry about these, I have outlined it in the past but not gone into specifics, because it's our own formula - just send us your body measurements and describe how you want the jacket to fit. Add pictures to help.

Ah...thanks. Yeah, I had the same issue with my 48 varsity. I sized up to a stock 50 for the MA-1, but found the chest fits exactly the same. These are really hands-down the coolest jackets I've owned, and despite Drew's occasional, unexplained, spontaneous dick-ishness (!), I really want to toss ToJ some funds with a new purchase -- I'm just way confused about what size I need. :puzzled:
Anyhow, looking good, aeglus.


noobizor... you have roughly 2000 posts on styleforum, about 1500 of which were punishingly unfunny - yet you seemed to really try hard at, did you want me to take your previous posts to me seriously?

That said, if you want to get on board with this - I welcome you however you want to come. If you or anybody else are buying used TOJs off the secondary market, you need to ask these sellers for proper measurements, and not let them just rely on the charts we made - people don't even refer the right charts sometimes, and often people brush past the fact that the jacket is modified on top of that - yet they have the piece in their possession and they should be able to measure it, it takes a minute.
If you are buying from us, most stuff is MTM, some stuff isn't worth MTM'ing and so it's sold stock. TOJ things are slim, made so that people can size up if needed, or wear as slim as they want to. It's not that hard, look at the toj-gallery if you don't believe me. There's thousands of pictures in there of people wearing well-fitted garments.

I believe their dark royal is that color, in fact.

Ordered an MDR on the first or second of January.

dark royal lamb isn't that color, and i think it's out of stock now anyway. We have navy calfskin in that color pictured, and looks pretty much like that, maybe a little darker in other lighting.

I really feel a restaurant analogy coming from this. Something about menus and food and ****.
