Very nice. Would recommend

I usually wear XXL clothes, having 184 cm height, being 122 cm at chest and having a light belly too....so I was worried how a Slim Fit will fit me.
I previously purchased a bomber jacket on another UK leather site, size 3XL and the selling team requested in detail measurement, sending me a 4XL jacket which fits just right, not too tight, not to loose.
On this sheepskin jacket I decided myself to go for 5 XL because I thought the wool inside would make it thicker and a 4XL won't fit.
I was right. The extra size is definitely a need compared with the other jackets without wool.
About the jacket: very nice brown color, not as red as in the pictures, but nice; is not a shiny finish but very soft and smooth, perfect for winter and windproof.
It would be better to be a little longer at waist, about up to 5 cm. Or at least to have to option to make it a bit tighter around the waist for the wind not to blow under to your tummy.
The pockets are very small, just about fit of your hands - big hands won't fully fit properly to protect against the wind.
Bigger pockets would definitely suggest for it.
Doesn't have an internal pocket which is a minus from my side.
Another thing I don't really like is the brass zipper, which doesn't slide smoothly, so I'll have to look out for some way (wax, soap or lube) to make a smoother slide. (probably not lube, to avoid any stains by mistake ...oh no,no). The zipper handle has a thick wire feeling of which endings kind of stings my finger a bit...maybe a different way to grab it will do...I don't know. Will see in time - but this is nothing to make you not buying this jacket.
Overall very pleased with the jacket, a bit expensive, but I feel that is going to last for many years to come.
I preferred this one because is not as thick as the other flying jackets, and also because the zipper goes all the way up, giving you the chance to close nicely the collar. perfect.
Oh, yeah, out of the bag it has that slight natural wool smell that I hope will wear out in the air.
next, is the outdoor test how will wear in the wind and 1 degree cold. Hope for the best.
