So I got the Real McCoys Cooper in the mail today. I firstly want to thank @StrangeJeremy for taking pics in helping me decide because I absolutely love this thing.

As you can see, the arms are a tad long right now, but that is okay because horsehide can accordion a lot in my experience. Additionally I do a lot of driving and may get a motorcycle again someday so when my arms are outstretched, this doesn't slide down my forearm (which bothers me immensely on leather jackets). Also this jacket is ******* heavy. I thought that I had been shipped three or four pairs of boots on mistake before I opened the box. Already broke two hangers attempting to hang it up.

I sincerely wish I was better at taking photos because the leather on this thing is unreal. It looks and feels and smells incredible. Cannot wait to see how it will age.

Gen needs a fit check on this Simmons Bilt Jacket. Zipped up, it looks like it's the right size for him, but he can't even fit one tennis ball inside the jacket and zip it up. Should he size up?

Another pic showing him trying to zip it up with one tennis ball, which isn't even close to fitting inside the jacket
