Took advantage of Aeros 10%-off and decided on a premier Highwayman. My first aero was a regular Highwayman that was way too big in the same size (44) but after getting a better feel for my measurements and their slimmer cuts I decided to give the premier a shot. Honestly could not be happier with the fit. It's very slim but not restricting and gives even my not-so-masculine torso a great (for me lol) V-shape. I think I even prefer it to the half-belt. I had the shoulder widened by an Inch and shortened the back to 25,5 despite being 6'7 tall for a slightly cropped fit.

You nailed the fit. I'm 6'4 with similar proportions in regards to chest to waist drop, and I am taking notes for my JL Barneveld fit jacket in the future.

I think the beaked front hem panel draws the eye and suggests a 'V' shape, especially when you go from shoulder to hem. You've really nailed length, I don't feel the jacket is cropped at all -- The hem panel encompasses your belt line and breaks your silhouette up into a favorable ratio of leg vs waist. Also, the sleeve taper looks ideal -- not too baggy, but enough room in the upper sleeve from a movement standpoint.

TLDR -- looks great!

Bought this Eastman Roadstar off of @Buick and I have to say I’m pretty pleased about this fit to say the least. Size up probably could have worked to for a more relaxed fit, but this fitted look works great with the cut. Frankly an amazing pattern on these.

this Oshwahkon jacket in size “XL” just arrived today. It feels amazingly comfortable. Leather is substantial and soft. In some ways, I would say Even better than East West Musical instruments jackets. ( but this is the only one Oshwahkon jacket I’ve handled)

I like the look, length. Sleeve. I don’t see any leather being pulled or stretched.

Does it feel comfortable for you?
Thanks a lot for the feedback. It feels really comfortable, excellent movement in it, also when it is zipped up. It is on the slimmer side compared to how i usually take my jackets, so there is something in me that wants to have gone for a size bigger. I think time will tell whether that is real or something that I am imagining. For now, I enjoy wearing it

Maxwell / Teamster hybrid. How does the shoulder look? I think it looks a little too wide or flared like football shoulder pads. The back width is 21. Jacket is a size 42

That's a good fit, the Teamster is not meant to be a superhero latex style jacket, you could get away with an even looser fit IMHO, it definitely does not look too big!

Thanks for this opportunity, seems like a good feature on the forum. I bought this LW Ryder size 42 earlier in the year.
Are the sleeves a tad long?

Front looks ok to me, the back seems large.

What do you all say? I know it's not a form fitting jacket but I seem to have a lot of room in this one. Maybe I'm expecting too much for a stock item.....

It looks roomy, but not in a head turning kind of way.. if you like it and it feels comfy, just wear it..

Thanks. I like it and it feels comfy…..to a point. if I have a sweater it’s better, but not how I want to wear this. The same jacket one size smaller is available, with a marginal waist measurement of 38, not giving me a lot of room to fasten the zipper. I have a couple of jackets with a 40” waist, which is just right. Decisions decisions.

Hey, this is a rugged west "The marling" that I purchased over a year ago. Never really wore it to be honest as I am not sure it fits properly? What do you think?
