Any more pics of these beauties?  My RMC J-100 sold this weekend and I'm officially in the market for this.

Pics will be posted as and when we can.  These will not go live until next week.

That does look spectacular… but I must admit the turquoise colour has been in my mind since I saw it. What would be the lead time on it? 

Edit: typo

[Giles]

I am going to get some turquoise in. So hopefully just a couple of weeks…...

Looking ace gentlemen! [emoji108]
Do the shoulders run on the large side? (18" on the S)
and can the sleeves be made longer?

I don't think particularly large (phone Walid, he has a 44…...)..

I am sure they can at some point, but we can't make many of these a week and we have a back log of over 100 to make before we start getting creative.....

Got it, thank you! I do have time on my side…
Red Devil must be ecstatic [emoji3] Will phone him indeed [emoji106]

So…

[Red Devil]

Please let me know what you think about this.
The leather is fantastic, so there is definitely room to be creative

Think that'll look amazing once it breaks in!

Here are more pics to see the fit, hope I'm not killing this thread with too many pics

I got this to try on, I am actually very interested in the Turquoise one… Although this black really looks very good!

I'm no expert in leather jackets but think it looks rather big in the body, shoulder and the arms are pretty long.Might just be the stiffness of an unbroken leather but I'd like to see it sized down one.

Update.  The black version of this jacket is chrome tanned not veg tanned as I had heard (in a lost for translation moment)…..Still some of the nicest horsehide I have seen - period.

Yes, I am thinking I need to try one size lower to see how it fits, thanks

I'll second that the leather looks amazing when you have it in hand
