How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

Have a few wool jackets that are a bit too nice for daily wear, this sportclad beater should be cool

I'm waiting on a new real mccoy's type 1 leather jacket in brown aniline. I usually take a size 44 or 42, but the shop strongly recommended I size down to a 40. I'm following their advice, the measurements seem to correlate with that.

From the rmc official photo, it looks like the shoulders drop down, which I see is reminiscent of denim type 1 jackets? Anyway the measurements show very large chest and shoulders for their respective sizes. I am expecting the sleeves to be slightly too short on me, and some shoulder over hang with a roomy boxy torso fit. But I am going to accept it.

I have several jackets that have this type of fit. For my own body type and comfort, I greatly prefer how these type of jackets wear to the other type. You are correct, wide shoulders and chest is period correct 1940s.

Interestingly, it seems that this type of styling seems to be more prevalent in the current fashion world (I think).

Yes I have also noticed it's currently in with the fashion industry at the moment.
