And of course it doesn't fit.
I ordered a Medium, which the size guide suggests is suitable for 35" to 39" chest.
I'm 39 to 40, so it should be perfect as I know they fit big.
Except the Medium is 25" P2P.
TWENTY FIVE. INCHES.
And the sleeves are not only stupidly long, but trouser-leg wide. And not just straight-fit jeans wide, pantaloon clown-trouser wide.
Back it goes.
A fit pic please before it does... as a warning to others...

Too late I'm afraid. It's already re-packed ready to go.
Really well built jacket though. Feels super tough. My dilemma now is whether even to try an exchange for a Small. I fear even that might be far too big.

Very nice. I really appreciate the triple stitch underneath the sleeves. Usually most just do a single butterfly stitch there. For HL I would want their Wrangler design trucker.
good eye. HL and my iron heart both just have a butterfly there.

Wow! put it on! What size is it? I came here to post a Trucker coming my way. I owned a couple of LW truckers, one to big, one to small. I have a Fine Creek too.

This Taubers Trucker is in the Truck coming east. This looks to be the twin of my current Taubers trucker. My current one is a bit big, I'm thinking marked a 46. If this one fits me better be on the look out for a size 46 for sale.
This is more worn, mine is much nicer condition.
Crazy! Just realized this has a zipper and mine has snaps! I'm really excited now!

Beautiful trucker. Short back with a nice front drop, curving along your pelvic line. One of the best if not the best trucker pattern.. Mine is brown and fits me nicely.
it's 36 but fits bigger than high large 38. Similar in the chest but bigger sleeves, bigger shoulders.

Woah nice! Older model with the metal chain, enjoy it! The leather looks fantastic!
I had one of these but it must've been a custom order because the measurements were really messed up.
Thanks! The buffalo hide does look great. Fingers crossed the jacket fits.

I decided on the exchange. So I should have a Small with me in a few days.
I hope that size works, because it seemed an excellent jacket.

It’s Memphis! lol. I recently had a package shipped from the NE, land in Austin where I live, back to Memphis, through Dallas again and to me. Ridiculous.
