what are they? Are they the same jacket (other than a rotla vs a TOD)?

Please provide a link if one is available?
Thanks

the regular cut is a jacket made for more durable wear.deeper pleats.roomier chest.no tappered sleeves.leather facings.heavy durable zipper.thicker lamb

the special rotla is the oposite of that.it's cut in a 80's cut...tappered sleeves, thighter chest.more tappered body.no facings.SA pleats.smaller pockets.thinner lamb

things like this

hope that helps you a bit

that helps a lot, thanks boss...

added:so, would that mean a 'regular' would fit larger/bigger than a special?
, even if its the same size?

yes that's right.

example:44 regular fits bigger then a 44 rotla.
the rotla is narrowed down almost 2'' in chest.meaning the the 44 regular has 4'' in chest movement space while the rotla has 2'' of movement space
