My brain is so warped from fashion, I can't tell if this is a good fit.

LOL, I thought that was Jimmy Butler and I thought the fit was ok. Then I realized it was Jordan and now I don't like it, lol.

@dieworkwear change the hat and it’s a good fit.

Real McCoy's J-100 in 44 for ~$1200. Looks to be not too aggressively worn.

Loving this jacket. My other leathers feel like they take a bit of effort to wear (either heavy or a bit constricting), but this one is super comfortable and easy to throw on. Wearing it every chance I can.

Whose the maker?

Whose the maker?

It has some similarities to the Schott Type II (P620H) but I don't think that's what this is.

 

[dieworkwear]

I think that's FCL

 

[sinnedk]

I thought it was an FCL as well but wanted to ask rather than guess.

Yep, FCL Virginia Beach.

Well this is a bit of a bummer. I requested spec sheets from Schott for the 613S (Perfecto) and the 603USA (Cafecto) and according to this chart it looks like they're fundamentally identical. The representative also said that with my 10" drop she was uncertain if any of their styles would fit me ? maybe I'll look into a Vanson or something, still not ready to drop more than 1k for a custom jacket. Here's the size charts she provided in case it helps anyone else:

Thurston can probably sort you out with a Vanson model that fits.

Also check out History Preservation’s Facebook page because the owner has a lot of pics of himself wearing the jackets. (He’s smaller than you but has a 10” drop so you can see how the drop looks. He was also extremely helpful when I called him for sizing advice on some clothes.)

I went down to Self Edge to try on their Flat Head Delrider jacket. Initial thoughts: it is STIFF. I guess that's the point, and the look, and it will break in, but it's just not that comfortable when new. In terms of comfort, the Stoffa lambskin jacket is more my speed.

The Delraiser did look pretty cool, though. Meaning, I didn't look as ridiculous in it as I thought I might.
