Is it just me, or are the shoulders for RMC J-100 really long/wide? Like, it doesn't line up with the chest measurements....I've never tried one on, but I'm going off the measurements posted by multiple shops. Is that just the way the jacket is supposed to me and will it look normal when worn?
The shoulders point to point are smaller than the chest but they are relatively high arm holes and the chest tapers quickly. Some of this may be related to the board racer design elements that supposedly force the body forward, as both the board racer and cafe racer were for motorcycles where you ride as such, as I understand it.
Not sure if the 51 uses a different fabric than say the 47, but iirc the 51 is the ‘slimmest’ offering that Freewheelers makes. Either way, the details on their denim are really nice.
Reddit told me it is a different fabric.
Btw, have you looking into Conner's Sewing Factory/One Piece of Rock at all?
