^^ Nice looking A2 up there!
Ok so this feedback all helps confirm what I have been suspecting for a few months now. While my physical dimensions have not "technically" changed that much, I have been in the weight room in a much more dedicated fashion for the past ~9-10 months and (quite thankfully) have realized some gains in strength. I have also been focusing quite a bit on cardio and stretching as those are all rather important as well. I have no goal to become a power-lifter. Just in moderately good overall fitness.
So - my upper shouder area, and especially tricepts & bicepts have changed from where they were a year ago. While I absolutely love Blue FQHH - "Gen 1.0 Premier fit Highwayman" which came into my ownership from Ton312, I intially thought it was just overall a bit small and in particular the arms & lower torso were not 100% to my desire. But the leather itself is awesome! Plus I had Johnson Leathers replace the main zipper. So I just stuck with it, wore it a lot, and now that we're having to add some layers under again, this is just not happening for me anymore. Even just a T-shirt with that jacket is still a little "skinny" for me these days.
This feedback:
First sits like a wurst casing, length is good.
Second fits a bit better but too short.
Both have way too tight sleeves.
This is perfect and describes what is going on with both these jackets.
The Black FQHH 4-pocket CR is a unique piece - it has full leather trim inside around the waist, and inner & outer kidney panels. Plus it is made with rather heavy FQHH Horween Horsehide, so it's set up to be a very long-term jacket. It's just a little to "sausage casing" for me, espeically with the continued weigth lifting.
