Hey there: Im interested in the goatskin Raiders jacket in 44. The length puzzles me tho. The Wested site shows the 44 as being 27.25 inches in the back. Wondering how there is a difference. Im rather on the tallish side and find anything under 27 looks a little short
See previous post…. All gone (sort of 
), but to answer your question, the goatskin must have been a custom. It‘s likely that the person who ordered it used the measurements they preferred for the “Hero“ model, which drapes lower off the neck. The regular model needs to be ordered about 1.5 to 2 inches longer to sit at the same place on the back. If you’re 6’2” or more this jacket might not have covered your belt.
