Can anyone comment on the sleeve length of the moto jacket? I'm 5'8" and wear a S in TS. I'm a little worried that the sleeves will be too long--I'm usually a 32 in dress shirt sleeves.

Prrrrrrobably will be long on you. My medium is a little rich in sleeve length- it is a moto intended to allow for a reach to the handlebars. I don't mind at all. I usually zip the cuffs almost all the way and allow for more relaxed wrist fit. I like it. Someone with a small should measure for you if the site doesn't have sleeve length details.

I love the leather but I'm not sure I can pull off the moto style. I was actually hoping they would bring back that whisky leather and offer it in a different style this year. Given how well that jacket sold last year, definitely can't blame them. I change my mind about backing it multiple times per day. I'm going to cave in like 3 days I'm sure of it.

AS others have suggested, the sleeves will be a little long (as is the intended style). For the record, I'm also a S in TS; I ordered a S in the jacket. The last picture that oynag posted above is mine--you can get a sense of the length there.

Hmmm the longer sleeves make sense for moto riders.. I'm on the fence about this jacket. Anyone wanna tip me in any direction?

Is the chest size of the 44-XL correct? It reads the same as an XXL at 48. Generally the XL is 46 and the XXL is 48. It for this jacket the XL and XXL show a chest size of 48. Seems odd.

Anybody have experience with the Moto jacket who could comment on its functionality and value as a dedicated riding jacket? It's significantly more expensive than Roland sands, joe rocket, dainese, etc.

You want it bud. Double zipper is so good on this one (one of my requirements on outerwear TBH) and the leather is phenomenal. I know you and I have 'other' leather jackets but this would be a nice change up. Trust me :D

I cant decide if I want that black moto jacket or not. Its so awesome looking and I am a huge fan of the double zipper.

^ looks good to me. I know it's snug/fitted but a larger size would have the sleeves too long. How's the chest feel? The leather will stretch/give a bit making it more comfortable after several wears..

The chest is tight but not restrictively so and I can tell that it'll loosen up. I'm more considered with the fit on the shoulders but I really could just be overthinking it all.

- since you guys brought back the moto in whiskey (and no in black), are there any thoughts towards something in suede? Not the moto since I don't need TWO motos...but just another style in suede. It's beginning to feel like Fall finally and my mind is shifting to fuzzy things!

Edit: maybe blanket lined too?

I may have had a bit to drink and ordered my first TS item, the olive green merino henley. I've been after a nice Henley, so we'll see how this goes!

What happened to the monthly Workshop production updates that were supposed to start? I have a couple items in the queue and am curious if they'll be on time.
