Thanks
-- I'm hoping to get the sleeves slimmed down a bit as I find they are a little bit on the loose side (measurement error on their part), but otherwise I'm very happy with how it turned out. Just glad I didn't mess up any of the measurements myself.
The leather feels pretty nice honestly... quite a bit nicer than I would have expected coming from a ~$250 leather. I had the jacket made in lambskin and find that it's very supple and smooth... not at all plasticky or cheap feeling like "genuine leather" jackets. It's not a heavy heavy leather jacket or anything, though, so I would say it's not meant for wearing in temperatures <50ºF... definitely meant for spring/fall weather. Unfortunately, I have not ever had the opportunity to handle real Rick leathers or similar, so I don't have that frame of reference... but for 10-15% of the price of one of those brands, I don't know that it's worth comparing the two
--- I would bet that the quality of the leather is not 10-15% of the quality of their baller counterparts, though.
Very nice. hows the leather feel? I could go for one of those myself, maybe if I get a job offer and can justify it
