My Wife is 5' 1"...I'm 6' . I think its the angle.They look great just bigger, must be a perspective thing.
Hi All,
Another jacket that is similar to Steve's. In this case, done with a chocolate colored horse hide. Again, using that same triple pleated yoke back panel. Please note the French seams complete to include the inner sleeve seams and half gusset & exactly as done back in the day by Monarch MFG for their late 1930s to early 1940s M/C jackets.
Those same half gussets were also utilized by Beck Northeaster Flying Togs premier late 1930s to early War M/C jackets.

It helps to invest in original jackets for a correct reference & above all to keep the guess work out of the equation.
Cheers, Dave
