Great addition and I for one love that big exposed zipper. Looks like it will age super fast which will be a nice contrast to your other jackets which always amazed me with how pristine they were. Enjoy!
I don’t know what Flat Heads secret sauce is but they have the most beautiful leather I’ve seen. I’ve been waiting patiently for a cafe or half belt to hit the classifieds.
The jacket in question is by The Flat Head who are a bit notorious for disproportionate chest v. shoulders measurement. As I mentioned earlier the shoulders are right where I want them (19”). It appears with this brand most people will have to pick their poison in terms of fit
42 measured with a tape, 41 if I pull it really snug.

Thanks for the quick reply guys, I’ve had my finger on the buy it now button all morning. My only current leather jacket (Schott 689) has a pit to pit of 23” and I find it a bit too loose. What I’m hearing is I shouldn’t go below 22”. Not what I wanted to hear!!
Looking for the advice of the group. I have a chest measurement of 42, is the process of converting this to the classic pit-pit as simple as dividing this in half or is it a bit more nuanced than that? I’m looking at a jacket with a 21”(even) pit to pit and am hesitant that it may be too tight...
