front and back.

I got a size S which fits perfect. BS did a good job with the cut, it's slimmer in body and sleeves than the standard Baracuta G9 (tho Baracuta is now making a 'slimfit' version which I'd guess is the same fit as BS's) and the sleeves are a bit longer, which is great since the normal G9 sleeves always ride up on me a bit when I have my arms out

one feature they added which is kind of odd is the "ticket pocket" on the side...you can always tuck it in if you don't want it visible and it doesnt bother me.

it's 100% cotton with acetate lining in the sleeves, burgundy/navy check lining, and zipper is YKK. The back 'awning' isn't completely sewn down, but just at the crests and sides, as a proper G9 should be.

for $125 I love it.

My mouth's been watering for a red one since that post months ago about Dean's.
