SS08 Jut Neck Sz 2

First for sure. I like the zipper config of the 1st more, but that's just me. Leather also looks more substantial than the 2nd. But both awesome nonetheless.

ss08 jut neck size 2, the aw08 one seems like it has too much going against you, I wouldn't risk it.

I'd go with the 1st one. Wouldn't count on the 2nd one stretching to a big 46/48.

While I prefer the look of the second one, if it don't fit there's no point buying it. Id go with the first. Or wait till you find the perfect jacket.

Yea for real. If you're dropping on a Julius, then it should be perfect.

Well to be honest, if you're dropping 1K plus on any clothing item, you shouldn't even need to post it in here. It should be automatic, in love with it, no convincing/other opinions needed.

Just my 2c

You're not that short. I am almost certain there are plenty of people that are the same height or just slightly taller than you that wear Julius without a problem. Kelv is probably about the same height or just a bit taller than you and he pulls off Julius well.

So go with the size 1 and then PM with the info on the size 2.

True although cog sci would mostly suggest that the best way to reduce remorse is to impulse buy and just go with it

it's the researching and comparing and advice-seeking that introduces doubt
