If anyone else is interested, I put up some more pictures of the Fine Creek Roberts with some thoughts on my blog here.

There's even a picture of it zipped up (trigger alert)

This jacket looks dope as hell zipped up, f the haters

Also really enjoy your giant snake plant and observation of this thread's knowledge of the female body

With those nice pictures it definitely looks much nicer than I imagined and the bib isn't so obvious. Still open way better than closed

Now that I have owned a few horse, lamb and calf leathers I have to say they are great in their own way.

There are plenty of times I want something lighter and/or pliable

Hello everyone!

I recently ordered a white Rick Owens horse leather jacket in my usual size, which is EU 48, sometimes even 46. First of all, I absolutely love RO, and I have been looking for a leather jacket in this color for quite some time now. What is more, I ordered the jacket for a really good price. Tags are still attached, I could therefore still return it.

Nonetheless, I am afraid that the jacket is too tight for me. I have to say that I usually wear my clothes quite skinny, and I already own a RO leather bomber in 48, which fits me well. The leather of this white jacket is extremely stiff, I therefore hope that it may give some more space after extensive wear. Furthermore, I usually wear my leather jackets open. I added some photos - would you be so kind as to give advice whether this jacket is definitely too small, or whether it is slim yet acceptable? Returning this jacket would definitely hurt, but keeping something that does not fit is pointless.

Thank you very much in advance!
I think it fits you slim but good

@d4nimal pardon if you’ve answered this, but what are the boots you’re wearing in those shots. Done write up btw.

These two arrived today.

S/O to @kiya for being nothing but amazing helping me pick up the Flat Head jacket (also thanks for making me make such rash decisions lol).
I’ll post detailed pictures soon, but wanted to share this exciting delivery.

Ha, care to elaborate

It's very tube-like. Also, I feel like it's something Tom Cruise would wear in War of the Worlds, you know, something a 50+ year old man would buy trying to look cool.

That said, I like it. And I want one. But 2 grand? Ouch. It'd have to definitely be a try-it-on- before-buying deal.
