    The Flat Head Cafe Racer Fit Opinions

    I went back to try on the Flat Head Cafe Racer with a closer look. Some takeaways: First of all, the jacket is spectacular, truly a fine jacket, in what seems like a heavy, black tea-core Shinki. The fit: I believe this size 40 is the right size for me, at least for Flat Head. They mentioned...

    The Flat Head Cafe Racer Fit Opinions

    That was super helpful! I have a feeling both pretty much would fit me the same way. On you, the 40 looks a bit more relaxed/comfortable with some extra room. The 38 fits pretty much perfectly, except the sleeves are a bit short. Could be fine wearing short sleeves. I feel like my long sleeve...

    The Flat Head Cafe Racer Fit Opinions

    Yes! I spent a few weeks creating a little collage of photos when researching my first light leather jacket. Some things on that list: I almost bought an RMC A-1. I love the look, but decided it might be better as a later purchase. Summer weight jacket, just appears a bit more bulky, and I...

    Yeah now I can't get that thought out of my head :) Yeah, I remember thinking "this is a bit roomy, I wonder if the fit is ok" when trying it on, as I usually prefer slimmer fits. I believe I had the sleeve zips all the way open though, they're just well hidden. Great points. The only reason...

    Yeah I prefer a more fitted style as well in general. Hmm, perhaps I'll buy it to try it on and return it if the sleeves don't work out. The sleeve style does seem a bit short. On this Rivet & Hide model the fit seems good, but the sleeves are on the shorter side:

    The Flat Head Cafe Racer Fit Opinions

    I would have loved to try a size down, but they didn't have it in stock. I have a feeling I would fit in the 38, except for perhaps the sleeves being too short, especially after some creasing. My shirt sleeve is even peeking a bit beyond the jacket sleeve. I also just asked my wife what she...

    The Flat Head Cafe Racer Fit Opinions

    Hi there, first time poster. I've been looking for a light weight leather jacket that I can wear often in my SF Bay Area climate, and have learned a lot from folks on this forum. I'm a bit new to quality vintage-style leather jackets, and would love to solicit opinions on the fit of this Flat...
