What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

Thanks @Smithy and @B-Man2. The sleeves just tend to ride up a couple inches above my wrist bone when my arms are extended. My shirt cuffs tend to peak out sometimes if I'm wearing long sleeves, but that's my biggest gripe.

That's no hassle, that's what originals do/did to a certain degree.

Don't get rid of that jacket as it's an absolute peach. You'll regret it if you do.

It's a mid-century flight jacket, it's never going to have the same range of motion as a hoodie

I think I need my head checked for listing this Steve Sellers W&G M-422A for sale. Sleeves are just a tad bit short and it was a bit like wearing a suit of armor, but a little time spent with a baseball glove mallet and some rigorous (sort-of) calisthenics have started to make this thick goat a lot more tame. Dare I even say comfortable...

I’m with @Smithy - don’t let her go …

It fits just right and the hide looks awesome

I don’t even know anything about g-1’s and the fit looks perfect to me. Maybe just relax the wrist knits a bit so they can slide.

Just realized how obvious my statement was considering I called an m-422 a g-1

You haven’t seen stupid until you see some of the dumb shit I used to ask back in 2009

Had this problem on my Platon as the wrist knits were uncomfortably tight. Actually rubbing me raw. Did the coffee cup treatment and they never bothered me again. But I still sold it

Does the back have a blood chit ?

Nope. Thought about buying one from Sean, to have it stitched as an inside pocket. But just didn’t feel like bothering

That's a cool jacket with some nice patches ...

I'm not that fond of Sean but his patches look awesome as looks the whole jacket

Looks like the proverbial cold snap over at yours, Rob. Can you comfortably wear layers under that Knopff?
