Picked up the Legend SL Jacket. Arrived today and I like it. A heavier version of lamb. Cannot detect very much striation in the leather but sure it will develop some with wear. I ordered the tall due to being 6 feet, 4 inches tall. Might be just a little long but not too much as I like my Indy jackets a little longer.

Also picked up their imported Vintage Texas Steerhide Legend Jacket in a 3XL that fits fine (like a 2xl). Pretty light colored jacket and the leather looks quite a bit like my Wested Dark Brown Novapelle.​

I've been watching these for about a week (and wanting one for longer).

Does anyone that has one, know about the "Trim" size for the fitting. The website says that this is the cut of the jacket that I'm interested in and that it runs "Fit: Trim (Shorter overall length and a trimmer, more tailored fit in the body & sleeves)"

As I'm a 6'3 tall guy, about 200 lbs, I'm kind of hesitant to order without knowing exactly how it will fit on me. Any insight/advice would be appreciated...

At 6'3", I would fear the body length my be too short for you, unless it comes in a "tall" or "long" size.

I am 6 feet 4 inches tall and weigh 235. For the imported jackets, I would go with a tall or 3xl. The 2-Imported steerhide I own are 3xl and actually fit like a regular 2xl. Length is fine. I ordered the SL Legend made by Schott in a XXL-Tall and it fits but is slightly too long in the body. I think I could have just ordered the 2XL and it would have fit fine. Leather on that one is thick.

Jackets look awesome!

One of the downfalls of being a popular size.. No clearance deals.. HA!
