Café Racer Lightweight Oiled Cowhide Leather Jacket

I bought this jacket for my husband since he recently got into the show Yellowstone. Wow! It did not disappoint. It smells like it’s straight off the cow and he even speaks with a western accent now. So many complements! Would by again.

I am always 5' 10" and presently 225. I wear a 46R suit, Shirts are 17.5 x 34. I expected this jacket, an XL, to be too small. It was perfect. At first I thought the sleeves were too long, although they were the right length for riding my Harley. But . . . . when you zip up the cuffs they don't slide past your wrists, so again as to size - perfect. The quality is obvious, and it looks distressed because it is distressed as opposed to looking distressed because somebody made it look distressed.

Advertised as having inside chest pocket but doesn't. Claims regular fit but seems a slim fit, very tight in the chest and shoulders compared to typical XL regular fit jacket. Also, has 100% polyester sleeve lining, which wasn't advertised but should have been (I would have expected a higher quality fabric like the cotton they use in their other jackets). Other than that, it seems an ok jacket just not for me because the interior pocket is important and I hate polyester.

I purchased this for my husband for his birthday and it is absolutely stunning. The leather is heavy and will patina beautifully over time. He is stoked. Of course shipping and everything Nordstrom was fab. Would def recommend.
