It's modeled after similar aviator style backs of the time.I saw this in the NYC store last time I was there (Dec 2nd). It was amazing!
BUT anyone help me understand why the back isn't one piece? I would prefer a cleaner/flat look in the back but then again maybe there is some function/purpose to that back, my novice mind doesn't perceive.
Thanks!
I agree, the thing I have noticed with some of these one-off Schott builds (like the CXL halfbelt I briefly owned) the shoulders are extremely narrow as are the sleeves. The measurements themselves wouldn't reveal that but they would be nice to have.But, c’mon, really? You can’t post measurements. I get that doing it for this jacket would mean doing it for all of their jackets and their fit finder is pretty good, but at $1700 aren’t measurements industry standard?
It's called a box pleat and it's a functional design feature. It enhances you ability to move your arms forward.BUT anyone help me understand why the back has that one vertical line?
Yeah I think the handwarmers could do without them and the back should have buckles for a functional halfbelt too.That is a lot of zippers (5) in the front
My appreciation grows! Thanks!It's modeled after similar aviator style backs of the time.
Yeah that's a deal breaker for me. If you design an Aviator why skip the side adjusters?and the back should have buckles for a functional halfbelt too.

What's the deal with the back length on some of these Schott cross zips? Looks kinda long. 24" or similar works best on this style, IMO
Yeah, I guess when you have a 24 year old doing your web page, they don't really think of measurement chartsBut, c’mon, really? You can’t post measurements.
