impolyt_one, I ordered an xs duffle a while back and I requested longer body and arm lengths and you guys said you could do it, do you know if the adjustments were actually made? Because it wont fit me correctly otherwise, I'm getting worried

Have the last of the varsities shipped? If no, can I just send you guys an email to change my shipping address? Moving soon.

Can someone please explain the difference between the unwashed & washed lambskin?

I kinda have the option of buying either a unwashed 2.3 moto and a washed 2.3 moto.
The unwashed one is $150+ cheaper so...

whichever one you don't buy i will. where? Washed is more wrinkled and worn looking, unwashed will be smooth.

Seconding Razele, hold onto it for dear life.

I posted a review of sorts on sufu the other day:

Here's the grey lamb moto after 4-5 months of regular wear. I think I wrote my first impressions of it when I got it in March, but I don't know where I put it. Drew probably has it somewhere in his inbox.

Anyway, it's holding up rather well. I've conditioned it a few times, and the sleeves and sides have gotten quite soft. The quality of the leather is really something, on par with what specialist leather companies put out for much higher prices. The zips were initially rough - you could've probably grated soft cheese on them - but have become softer over time. There's some puckering at the seams, and the moto has acquired a fantastic patina that isn't very evident in the photos. I get compliments on it all the time! A really versatile jacket that's well worth the money.


I received the black blistered lambskin DR yesterday, and boy was it worth the wait! The leather really has to be seen in person; my photos do a terrible job of showing its texture. It feels soft to the touch, very much like suede, but feels like it could take a beating. My only complaint is that I think black zippers would've looked better on the DR. That said, I'm very satisfied with how it turned out, and am looking forward to what TOJ has in store in the coming months.

Received a black on black varsity from a SF Member today... fits really slim and high, like at the top of my belt line. I prob would have added an inch to the length had i gone custom... or are they supposed to fit high? Kinda poofs out on my lower back above the bottom ribbing too. I just dont like havin a Tshirt poke out the bottom. Amazing piece though, i am definitely impressed by it!

Yeah, my jacket does that too and was wondering if I should of got 1 size smaller in the body? Or is it normal? But it definitely is a beautiful piece

Varsities are like bombers in fit, they're supposed to be big in the body like that.
