It's something that I saw other higher end markers do so I sent him a message and got this response.

Normally cost of our Custom jackets with pattern development and delivery charges is 350$ and after if you need a Cotton Twill samples test jacket first its cost with shipping will be 100$...
Yup I understand that and that's why I ordered fitment jacket. Was debating it but I'm like would rather get a fitment jacket and be able to send any adjustments that I might need to get something that actually suits me hopefully.
Also thanks for the feedback. I will be redoing the PDF with...
Lol considering I payed 30$ for a design I could send on Fiverr. (100% not worth it) I'm thinking if ⅓ the price for a fitment because design is a bit weird. I took 30s car coat. Added bi-swing to the back and 2 button on each side for 3 of my most wanted features from 3 different jackets lol...
Anyone order a fitment jacket before getting their leather jacket. It's an extra 100$ so I'm thinking 450 for a perfect fitting(hopefully) jacket vs 350 for something that might not be as good because of measurements
Oh I will have to give that a shot and see what can be done about the wrinkles. And yes not sure why the sleeves are backwards considering I asked to have them facing out.
I'm actually considering doing some crazy stuff like trying to add wax to it my self to see if it's possible to improve...
Damn that looks good looking forward to seeing it
Mine is a mixture of a bunch of things I want together but I'm a bit worried about the cuffs. Got another order made jacket from another company in Pakistan but the cuffs came out like shit. And the back came out like shit. Exact same...
So not sure if anyone has ordered the 2mm thick black leather yet but I just put my order in. Will update once I get it but will only be able to compare the weight and heft to my Y2 leather jacket which is 1.6mm thick horse hide
Sorry for super late reply. When I was in the process of getting my Y2 leather jacket order I asked them a few things that I really wanted to know, some were design aspects others were the hides.
They said that the hides that they use are Japanese hides from the same area that shinki is made...
Moved back state side due to family emergency and I'm selling my y2 leather jacket in light weight horse hide. Jacket has very minimal use due to the fact that the sleeves were a little short for my long arms so I did not wear it much.
Would like to get close to what I bought it for but I am up...
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I sent the marker an email to see if it would be possible to send it in for sleeve extension so will see how it will go.
Gone and spent too damn much money again but this one I needed to get out of my system. The gangsterville 1930s car coat. Like the color, great leather just sleeves are a little short again and this is their 2XL which I think is their biggest or close to biggest size.
I will have to sell this...
So this is a project I started working on when I bought my Y2 leather jacket and did not want to wear a backpack on my way to work. Also have the original cardboard assisted designs lol
I would say around 200 hours from starts to finish.

I have bolded your comments so they will stand out. You made your comments inside the quote box. Never works well that way.
There may be additional material inside the cuff that a seamstress could use to lengthen the sleeves.
