REALLY SAD because the leather is really nice and it's a "beautifully" made jacket.

Thanks for the measurements .
Question ? Did you have the jacket customized for you ? I ask because 25 inch back length seems short for a size 48.

That's the problem the back of the jacket was too short, and too wide at the shoulders that’s why I sent it back.

Dimensionally that looks like my gw dubow. Longer in the body length.

As stated here above, the stock 5* Dubow is quite short, that's why I added the 3 full cm.
Had a Werber before that was ok in size, but shoulders were way to square.
So made sure Shawn had the measurements spot on. They don't mind an email more or less. Better get it right.

Thanks. Both the Dubow and Rough Wear are a good fit and fun to wear.

As I stated on another post, my gw dubow is the longest of my jackets. I trust jc to get it right. So it’s good to know for anyone ordering a 5* dubow to get the extra length if you want accuracy. Something Platon needed, but that ship has sailed.

Thank you for the information I will consider for the new jacket to come.
On the 48 could I ask what your chest measurement is. My 46 it fits well in the shoulders wearing a shirt and my concern is if I go up to to the 48 it will get too boxy and I'll constantly have to wear layers to take up the extra room. I have received great advice from the group with the look of the A2 and really happy with the workmanship of the FiveStar jacket.

Bottom line is, if it doesn't feel right, then you wasted the money.
That said, others here have correctly posted that A2s weren't made to fit like modern flight jackets.
