Description: Eastman Leather Co. Windward 36R Vintage-Style Black Motorcycle Pockets Jacket This is an amazing leather jacket! The quality and design are exceptional. The sizing below and description from their website is accurate. I am 5'11" about 150 lbs. and can fit into this piece with a snug fit as I prefer a tighter fit with my build. I am tall and slim with shorter arms. Please see these measurement and let me know if there are any questions on sizing or otherwise! This size is built to order and usually takes several weeks to complete and then additional time for international shipping but this piece is available to ship right away here in the states! Chest Width: 20" Shoulder Width: 18" Arm Length: 23.5" Back Length: 23.5" This style is a direct copy of a vintage 1940s leather motorcycle jacket originally produced by one of America’s 20th century greats – Montgomery Ward. The design exudes quality from every seam, and its rugged, durable, medium weight and sleek tailoring will make this your loyal companion on or off the road. Lovingly crafted by leather artisans on the bench one jacket at time, with each panel cut by hand versus stack cutting by machinery, the ELMC Windward leather motorcycle jacket is a throwback to an era where quality was king. Adding to the vintage aesthetic and comfort found in this style is a hand-applied light treatment of vintage patina – just enough so that the leather looks slightly broken-in for both a rugged look and lived-in comfort. This is not a leather jacket to be found in malls or department stores – it’s a leather jacket of extreme distinction to last a lifetime and beyond. And with factory repair services available for the parts subject to normal wear such as linings, zippers, buttons, etc., your investment in both history and style can be refurbished to original spec. – there’s nothing disposable about an ELMC leather jacket! Each example is also outfitted with all the vintage detailing one could hope for, which includes: American top-stitched seams to the side-panels and inside facings exactly as per the original. This style of seaming (often faked by just two rows of normal flat-bed sewing) requires a special machine (a vintage 1940s Union Special, in this case), which covers from underneath, allowing the seam to be folded out flush, but keeping strength, thus giving the garment a very tidy and smooth finish. The outline pocket is piped inside with leather, not cloth cord, which is sewn, in turn, with an American top-stitch to hold securely. The quilted lining (which runs through body and sleeves) is 100% rayon-satin backed with a 3mm all-wool filling (not polyester or other synthetic hollow filling), which allows the lining to breathe, thus giving a true glowing warmth and not a trapped hot one (this style is ideal for temperatures down to the lower 40s Fahrenheit). Premium, imported Italian horsehide conforming to 3 ounces in weight, fully vegetable tanned and aniline dyed, with a full grain of rivulets and valleys that yields all the character typically associated with old-school, vintage leather jackets Fully lined with wool-quilted, 100% rayon satin for warmth and easy sliding on and off Cossack-style frontal closure Gusseted armpits for greater range of motion Hard-wearing, all-cotton drill cloth used in pocket lings Vintage-style, matte-finish, nickel-plated metal zippers on pocket and center front Two hand-warmer pockets, one slanted breast pocket, and hidden zippered pocket under flap Half-belt on back with elasticated sides provides for a reasonably snug fit to keep out chilling winds American top-stitched seams Vintage-style union label in pocket Vintage-style labels in lining woven on vintage shuttle looms
