BK Westfall after few months

I ordered this Westfall in last June, but when it first came, due to my mistake, the sleeve is about 1 inch short than it should be, so I send it to BK and asked them to add the extra length. The solution is to extend the cuff only, to avoid the funny look of the large cuff after put the extra length on, Andy suggested to add a strip on it. I received it back on December. And this is my go to jacket if weather allowed.

I also added 1 inch to the length of the jacket, so it looks a bit longer than it should be.

Oh, it is badalassi cow hide in seal brown, the leather is thick, stiff, and still not really break in yet.
And thanks to Silver (Vic) for the suggestion before I ordered the jacket.

This is what it looks like when it first arrived

Wonder why they didn't put the cuff strap in the middle of cuff rather than at the top..??

Well, you sure gotta have the body to be able to get away with a jacket like this, and it looks like you succeeded !
I can't tell if the body is a tad too long, looks totally natural to me, and so does the sleeve length.
Very nice leather, not too grainy thankfully.
