one of the BEST of the rack wested's IMO

Post by Holt »

Hi.

after seeing raiders a few times lately I have noticed that this 'of the rack' jacket I got 6 months ago is really one of the best raiders 'of the rack' jacket I have seen.I cant really point my finger on it what it is...but I think it is something about the cut in the chest and collarstand length.....

reminds me very of the ravenbar/well of souls jacket...

what do you think of it?...

Just to ease my conscience so I am not thinking about a perfectly awsome jacket that could have been mine sitting in Peter's shop that was less money than the Magnoli that I am trying to save up for. :)

Congrats on a very fine jacket. Just don't put it in the mail.

Are the ROLAs 80s cut or standard? I had a size 44 jacket years ago that was obviously cut narrow and I could hardly zip it up all the way. Thinking of getting a 46 now. Looks like this would be the one to get!

These Specials seems awesome, but I can't buy them, I will have problem with the sleeves, that's why I'm going with the custom models

I'm the same, none of the OTR's will fit me. Too long in the arm and body.

Although I do have a history of picking up jackets that fit me off the stock rail there. People who mis-measured and returned. :).
