Simmons Bilt Classic Biker jacket

[Bfd70]

If your hyper ocd ( i sorta am, sounds like you might be) you’ll notice that a jacket that fits great with a t-shirt is too tight with a hoodie and one that fits perfect with a hoodie is too loose with a t. Can’t have it both ways unless you can have two. Having said that, @Max Power might pull it off. It probably helps if you are a bigger guy. Wiggle room seems proportionally less of a big deal.

@Bfd70 you're right, it's hard to get a jacket that fits trim with just a tee and still fits a hoodie underneath. It somehow works on my FH but that one feels a bit loose without a hoodie and my FCL is a better fit with just a tee.

I recently got a Detroit Jacket which is similar to the Biker Jacket.
Choosed the Blattwerk Horse Hide Leather.
I find it is fine over a T and over a T and an IH Flannel. But i tend to wear my Jackets a bit looser.

I could post some comparsion Pics when I`m Back Home from work.

How's the Blattwerk HH in your opinion? Pics would be nice, yeah!

Thanks for the answers so far. I'll write to Debs at some point and see what can be done.

I hope it'll work with out with SB since Schott's measurements (at least on 618) are quite ridiculous in my experience (roomy waist and chest area with really narrow shoulders) and I hope SB will provide me with a better jacket.

So here it is

Over a UHF

Over a T

Very Comfortable over a UHF and an T.
I sized the sleeves a bit to long, but after the crease will set in it will be fine.

The Blattwerk Leather is very soft and heavy and less shiny then other HH I think.

Also new to me IH-1955SOD

That does look like nice leather from here.

I have two of these Giles posted in different sizes. Lovely describes it well but maybe an understatement. The Blattwerk leather is incredible. The hand is probably what I imagine unicorn hide to feel like.

@thomas01 that jacket looks marvelous and so do you wearing it. I should think this will be a cherished part of your wardrobe for years to come. Very well done sir.

Thanks for the pictures. Looks fantastic, and most importantly, not too shiny.

Blattwerk adds £150 to the price, though. Not sure if it's worth it, but it might as well be. I guess I'll have to order some leather samples from SB and decide for myself.
