Cheers! It's probably just my pics that show it a bit darker than it is, although it is in my opinion quite dark shade in other than direct sun light, but still noticeably lighter than dark brown (glazed) goat.

Leather MA-1 is awesome, I'm waiting for one as well.

Very nice ryosuke. Considering the age of your jacket this is probably what the current medium whiskey looks like. Would you say that it leans towards the brown end of the colour spectrum? How orangey is it?


I would say it's brown. I've never considered it to be orange and just wear it as another earth tone Highly recommended.

The shoulders are the only thing I really worry about. he kept your shoulders at 20''? Did you go with lamb or calf?

I went with lamb. He originally went with 19.5 before I requested a larger size to accommodate layering. What's your concern here?

So your shoulders measure 20" and he recomended 19.5"? i would have figured 20.5".. I guess you should be fine, being its lamb. Ive yet to get the "perfect" fit with a TOJ and i can never really tell if its because of the shoulder measurements or the pit to pit measurements..

My shoulder measurements have been.5" less than measured on all of my full leathers. I just went with what Charly recommended and haven't touched it. Maybe I'm missing out on the "perfect" fit, but it works fine for me.

Has everyone already received June orders?


Ordered a lil later in early July and haven't received anything. I understand if delivery is slightly over 20 weeks (estimated time), BUT It's getting a little ridiculous that the wait times were 2x that of estimated.

Paradoxically he recommended 1 additional inch compared to my body measurements and the measurements of another leather jacket.
It looks like he usually doesn't do that, this has been worrying me.

Its likely he is recommending S2S largely by your height and weight, bc it's been stated before that people are typically not accurate when they measure their shoulders.
