Do you think I can fit 2 tennis balls in here if I copped this leather bodysuit from this season's Rick?

why don't you buy it and let us know? but they have to fit in front of your junk

certainly in the crotch area

And for anyone curious, these are not true biswing panels on the arms. They're like half sewn shut. They're weird in that they provide no additional flexibility yet would appear so. Hence, they can rip inside but unseen from just looking at it.

An extra 1.5" in the chest and those rips wouldn't happen.

To be honest, I don’t think you’d see tears like that with a Schott or Vanson and those are like a fraction of the price. Your bones would break before the jacket would, if you sized down too much.

Ok jackasses, just ordered another FCL Roberts in a size 40. It better not make me look like a tube sock.

Probably the least interesting leather item ma+ makes, but it’s very comfortable and could accommodate at least a few tennis balls.

Imagine buying Understatesman's size 38 jacket. Five years later, when the jacket is nicely worn and faded, you notice that some part of the arm has been oddly colored with a Sharpie.

Have you considered a Real McCoy’s Buco j-100

Nah, that's basically the same cut as my Polo Cafe Racer with no pockets.

Wait so is there a markup on your size 38 due to brand story?
