wj4, it looks like the sleeves on the MDR are a tad short from the pictures. Are they okay in reality?

Also took pictures of the HH MDR since I haven't got around to it yet. I included pictures of me raising my arm to show some sort of movement.

I'm back from New York, **** was the truth. Really glad to have gone and met some of you dudes, and I'm thinking of maybe moving TOJ grand imperial HQ to NY instead of Tokyo, my man dizzhizz still on the ground in Seoul to do magic with the clothes.

I'm gonna work on catching up on some emails, and do some admin work.
Islander, I got mail from you today, thanks. obiter dictum, sorry for the delay dude, emailing you tonight.

Hey TOJ,

any thoughts on working on a natural leather wallet or suede again? Or a duffel bag of some sort in canvas + leather *drool*

it's actually fairly heavy. if you want a really lightweight summer jacket, the baseball isn't really the best option

I think the MDR has more aggressive cuts all around. I used the same measurements as my black DR 2010 and the MDR is a bit shorter in body, has shorter sleeves, and tighter arms.

I wouldn't mind if the sleeves were .5'' longer, but as how they are now...they are still good.

Baseball jacket is heavier than a few spring jackets I have.

To the dudes who PMd me in regards to my specs and sizing. I don't have time to track emails to get the specs.

I'm about 5'9'' to 5'10'' at about 155 lbs. Chest measures 37'' and waist is 30-31''. In ToJ, I'm usually a modified 46 with lengths added.

You're right, thanks for the clarification, bro! Oh word, you're a 46? I'm the same height and weight and I'm a 47 or even 48.

Honestly, to the people asking about specs and such, IMHO, it makes no sense to. You're asking someone else for measurements for a jacket that will fit them, not you. Yeah, if they're a similar dimension, perhaps. But if you want a jacket that will fit you and only you, listen to Drew.

Outdoor pics of the baseball jacket make it look tremendously better. The problem with almost all of the fit pics posted so far is that they're taken indoors, and the suede causes the arm to blend in with the body and create a ridiculous blob effect, due to the lack of clear visual separation between the torso and arm.
