Thanks for actually showing some leather jackets when most members probably can't fathom the possibility of putting one on!

We always need fit pics. Especially with this beaut of a jacket

 

[Mr. Rawky]

Picked up a Hercules A2 over the weekend. Absolutely besotted with it

Nice one, Rawky! I dimly recall hearing a lot of the Sears Hercules jackets were made by Monarch. Based on the collar, I wonder if that’s one of them.

Hmm, good to know. Thanks.

A somewhat unusual view of yours truly caught redhanded doing a bit of spaniel training early one morning on one of our trail cams. GW RW - not fully zipped up - shock horror!

Always in action, Micawber. I have a Weimaraner here in desperate need of some training/tuning up. Seeing your pup photos though, always reminds me fondly, emotionally, of my old spaniels.

Yes they are always busy! Weimaraner's can be a bit challenging too

After an unusual heat wave it’s jacket wearing weather again.

Flash, I will second B-Man, that fit looks just spot on here, just the right amount of drape and shape.

I bought the original Ralph Edwards G-1 size 48 from the G.W. Sales pages recently..
I think the fit is fair, but I do wish it had a bit more length..
Fit Opinions welcome ..

Lovely jacket. The fit is OK in my opinion, the sleeves are correct, but the fact that the length seems a bit on the short side - well, if you were flying in it, such a length would be an advantage instead of a disadvantage.
In any case, this is the original, and what could be better than the original?
