5* Roughware or Poughkeepsie?

[Flash Badger]

Hi all. I’m in the market for another 5* A2 and am tossing up between a Roughwear 27752 or the Poughkeepsie in Pull up horse or mid brown. The thing I’m unsure of is the fit of the contracts. I’m a big fella at 6’3, 100kgs and a chest, belly and hip measurement of 43in, 42in and 41in. Which contract would some of you larger fellas suggest? I’m looking for a comfortable jacket in the shoulders and chest.



Regards



Garry

Gary I have the Poughkeepsie in size 46. Should have ordered a 48, as it is Definately short on me. I do not recommend the mid brown it as the leather and finish are kinda poor. I went and did a “depot redye”. However nothing wrong with the rest of the construction of it. I also ordered a star contract in the pull-up and would absolutely order that again just in size 48 as again it’s a little short on me. I’ll try and get pics of you like.

The Fivestar Brandy leather is lovely.

I agree from what I have seen online but I would like to see more picture of it though

FWIW, the Poughkeepsie is generous in the shoulders. From your description of your measurements, it doesn't sound like you have the modern v-shape torso, so maybe Rough Wear?

If anyone has a pull up or brandy could they post good pics please.

That’s an interesting hide mate, would be keen to see it outside Shawn’s blue tint photos. Is it pull up or is it aged?
