Do the numbers come close?
It's a great looking jacket and the build quality is also great. Well worth the money imo, that is if it fits
yeah whenever I hear blousey fit or blouson my face contorts a little, I once had conversation with my uncle about his desire to get a new leather jacket but then he dropped that "blouson" every 10 words and praise how effortless it looks, as much as I like the topic of discussion I got to derail it onto another so I started talk about bike jacket and then steer it into moto gp topic.. wheww .
Got the sleeves shortened from Dena @Great Leathers...she did a great job as usual
Seb, that is perhaps the only example you are going to find of a total bad ass wearing a blouson.
Aero's Windward is the closest match that I can think of to what you describe, 'cause of the tight, elasticized waist, but I also wouldn't think of it being a style of its own. It's just a classic leather jacket.
Gustin Vintage Heavyweight Sweatshirt - Natural Rainbow Nep - $119 Rugged 14oz cotton that gets better with every wear. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - #395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Himel Bros. - The Ross Mk. 1 Leather Jacket Classic D-pocket motorcycle/aviator style jacket. So I have long been thinking about a "better fitting" Snug, but not tight, practical, somewhat stylish but a bit more work-oriented jacket. Straight Zip, shirt collar, and not a bomber jacket. I do not care for bombers, elastic cuffs etc except for the instance of a Carhartt chore coat. This is also not a Half-belt topic. So it seems I am loking for a Blouson jacket. A term that, until recently, I was not familiar with.
From Wikpedia: A blouson or blouse jacket is a jacket that is drawn tight at the waist, causing it to blouse out and hang over the waistband. Some of them have a hood. It takes most of its modern traits from the American flight jacket and police blouson. It is related to the Eisenhower jacket.
There have been three specific jackets in my mind as I have been thinking along these lines. The first, least expensive, and likely most practical is the Schott 689H, a photo of which was borrowed off thier website - Note especially the back and the waist adjusters, situated ~ 5" off the bottom hem of the jacket:

Frankley it suprises me a bit we do not see this jacket here in FL more often. It is only around $825 at full price, however I do admit the fixed quilted lining makes this a rather warm jacket. Right now that's appealing as i really am not excited about winter setting in.
Next is one we've discussed a lot in this Lounge, and after a conversation with Charles at History Preservation Associates, the US Stockets for Eastman & ELMC jackets, the Highway Star is indeed a very hard-to-fit jacket. It's not just boxy, it's shaped very different than most jackets on the market these days. I like how it looks and the leather looks great, but it's proven to be very difficult to get the fit down on for almost everyone who has tried. Photo below:

Finally, one I had not consdiered before, suggested by Charles of History Prservation, this is the Ostmann Luftwaffe Flying jacket. I would prefer a Black one of any of these. Or does someone else have another suggestion? This jacket runs $1350 so not an insignifigant cost here: (Photo from History Preservation Associates)

Note that the wasit adjuster straps are near the bottom of the jacket, but actually have holes & buckles, similar to the Schott. There is also the "belt" that attaches in the front:

Thoughts? Personal expeances with these? Just wanting an easy wearing leather that has a bit of an "edge" but not showy. Simple, clean, straightforward.
