Can i order the daredevil? If so can you post what the measurements are for the size runs.

For the larger shoulder-to-shoulder, order the standard Daredevil. For the slim shoulder-to-shoulder, order the Slimfit Daredevil.

Absolutely...that's no problem!

The Measurements on the Standard Size Small Daredevil are:

41.5" Chest
19" Shoulder
37" Waist
*This is the standard Junya sizing

The Slimfit Daredevil in Size Small will be the same, but with a Shoulder measurement of 17"

I'll have to ask, but I think that this jacket will have the specs of the sample. I don't think that they want to sell the other version (shorter arms and tighter shoulders) without the sample coming in first, which is prudent. Also, the Styleforum one will the the Japanese floral lining. Making these samples costs real money. I expect that @Thurston Bros figured that some of their core customers would like a jacket that is a but closer to a typical moto jacket. My aero is a size 38, but with shorter arms and a slightly longer body, than usual. And I am not a guy with short arms. In fact, my slightly longer than usual wingspan is pretty much my only advantage in my otherwise lousy boxng. The arms are made for being stretched over a racer. Of course, I'll have to confirm that tomorrow. I think that the name is okay. But then, Daredevil is one of my favorite superheroes, so I may be biased.

Incidentally, we sent the sample off to @Synthese (yeah, that lucky bastard) who will do some fit modeling for us when he gets back from wherever he is right now. Please keep in mind that he is taller than average (about 6'1" or so, I think), and is an ex-college athlete, and has a more athletic shape than most of us, so please keep that in mind. Most of us (myself included) will not have the same angular and wider shoulders as does he.

How did the fit work out?

How did the fit work out?

Heh. We don't know yet. Unfortunately, USPS screwed us, as you know. The jacket is in safe hands though, back at his place, but he has yet to try it on. When he is back on these shores, I'm sure he'll tell me.

Cheers,

Fok.

The Measurements on the Standard Size Small Daredevil are:

41.5" Chest
19" Shoulder
37" Waist
*This is the standard Junya sizing

but a size down from junya, right? (i.e. those measurements equate to the junya model in sz M and the standard daredevil in sz Small)

The Slimfit Daredevil in Size Small will be the same, but with a Shoulder measurement of 17"

no waist adjustment to the slim daredevil? (i.e. no other measurements change on the same model size other than 2" down across the shoulders)

Please tell me 41.5 is the whole jacket or centimeters...

 

[nyarkies]

I'm sure that's the chest circumference in inches.

Yes, entire chest circumference in inches

If you're a M in Junya, you're a S in this sizing... The waists are pretty good on the Junya jackets...take a look around...

For the larger shoulder-to-shoulder, order the standard Daredevil. For the slim shoulder-to-shoulder, order the Slimfit Daredevil.

I thought the standard daredevil fit was the Junya fit?
