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?


Yes, the slim version would be more like the SF version with the narrower shoulder.

@Thurston Bros you about ready to throw your monitor out your office window yet?

Ok I'm just a little confused with the last couple of pages. From what I understand there is a "slim fit" daredevil bring offered which had the same fit as the Junya, except sizes are graded down (i.e. if you are a Junya medium you would take this jacket in small), and the shoulders are 2" smaller.

Will the styleforum x vanson also have 2" taken in for the shoulder? It was mentioned in previous pages that only a slight shoulder tightening of ~1" was proposed ftom the junya model. Has this changed?

ok heres how I see it, and thurston bros please correct me if I'm wrong:

a) vanson derby jacket, pretty much the same jacket and same measurements as the junya x vanson collab, although unsure about the epaulets that appear in some pics and not in others, but 1 sz difference from junya sizing (i.e. junya sz M equals derby sz S) $650
1200



b) thurston x vanson daredevil jacket, mods suggested by SF to the junya x vanson collab (i.e no coin pocket, different back, etc) with same measurements as junya collab but 1 sz difference from junya sizing (i.e. junya sz M equals daredevil sz S) $700
550
600



c) sf x thurston x vanson jacket, pretty much the same jacket as the daredevil but with shorter sleeves and 2" narrower on the shoulder to shoulder measurement, also as with the daredevil and derby theres 1 sz difference from junya sizing (i.e. junya sz M equals SF Collab jacket sz S, BUT 2" narrower S2S measurement) $700

*edit: added the shorter sleeve mod

Not at all, everything is perfectly clear. It helps if you have been following it from the beginning, as you should if you are ready to shell out $700 for a jacket... @canstyleace has summed it up rather nicely up above.
I agree though, @Thurston Bros has a lot of patience dealing with some of the crowd here!

Also, this...

We may have to modify the pricing a bit once the Slimfit Daredevil is out (slimmer through the shoulders), but hopefully not...
