That's a pretty good looking Pike Brothers jacket!
I think River Junction's jacket is much closer, though. They need to add photographs of a person wearing it (front, back, side) to get a better idea of fit. They way the advertise it, currently, doesn't add to it's appeal.

I bought a Pike Brothers Navy (navy colored too) front zip deck jacket, a few months ago. I emailed them about which size I should get and also looked at the measurement provided. I chose the best size for me from the information provided. The fit of the jacket through the shoulders and torso...
