It's kinda sorta the old ToJ. Hopefully they learned from past mistakes. Honestly ToJ was a lot like lawless. |

Yeah they are using the same production facilities both are former but no longer affiliated with Drew who is somewhere in Asia. Your friend charly seems to be on-top of his game and should crank out some solid pieces. I love my TOJ A2. Can't wait to see when people start getting their items. |

Thoughts? Not impressed with the leather but I think I like the style, not sure. How's the fit? Schott A2 size Large It's hard to tell where the shoulders are hitting your shoulders, it seems like it might be a little bit wide, also indicated by how it's folding under below your arms. If it has a thick lining in it it might just need to be broken in, though, and if you want to be able to get a sweater or hoodie on top of that button-down it might be just right. Is that a Taylor Stitch Aqua Oxford? |

It looks to be about 1 size too big when not zipped. It looks better zipped. It all comes down to what type of fit you like? Loose, slim etc. As mentioned do you want room for a sweater etc?
Most all leather jackets start out feeling a little funny as the leather will conform to you.
If you are not impressed with the leather then you would need to compare with other brands as to what you can get for your price range. Usually Schott is known for decent leather unless talking about their more fashion oriented lines which have thinners leathers.
If you bought it new from Schott and it feels wrong you could always have them send another size and send back the one you don't like. Will cost you a little in shipping but you won't be happy until you find the perfect fit. Many of us have been there or are still searching. Ha!

Looks about 1 size too big. Should seem looks to be over hanging a bit. Length seems good but overall it seems just a bit large. If you're looking for that fit it's not bad. It doesn't look out of place but I would think 1 size smaller would work great.

I ordered from Mr. Porter. Amazing retailer - free shipping and returns, they even pay for UPS pickup.
I just ordered the medium, I will know tomorrow.
I do have my eyes on the Vanson Model B in an Octagon, but no way for me to try it on for size currently unless I commit 100% to the process (thurston does good w exchanges and/or I can get it through a retailer over in Detroit that would custom order it..I think)

Vanson is 20min down the road from me if I can offer any advice.
What size are you normally? I assume the A2 runs differently than a Model B or A or C2 etc.
