The jacket and buying experience were top notch.The jacket is a work of art. Beautiful texture and fit. I am 5’9”, 170 lbs. and a Large fit me perfect. I was a Medium in some of their other jackets so I was surprised that the Medium for this jacket was too small.The dark brown color goes great with my South Asian complexion. The knit collar is rather tall but that along with the knit waist and cuffs soften the leather look and are really nice touches. The side pockets are too high for me to ever use. The button flap on the waist pockets actually catch my arms whenever I walk with the jacket unbuttoned but not a big deal.
Now onto the buying experience. I highly recommend going to the flagship store in SoHo and trying on multiple styles and multiple sizes. This is not a purchase to be made solely online. I was expecting to come out of the store with another jacket but when I found this gem, this unique piece, I had to pivot. I wish there were model pictures wearing the jacket on the website to inform my thinking. Colin and Amber were very helpful. Everyone is kind and no one is pretentious or pushy.
