Im bummed the revelations regarding Herons new jacket weren't addressed before mine was made.

What updated design tweaks weren't added?

Maybe... There are lots of us all over the world that get into the Wolverine/Logan look. He's cool and inspirational with that burly attitude of his. :lol


Thanks for the shot of the backside of the buckle. Looks like it was haphazardly soldered on, which may give at any time, or at least that's how it appears. I wonder if they were all soldered that way?

Yes I agree, the soldering really does look haphazard but it seems to do the job. Even so I'd like to put in a couple of pins. I've seen a few other SandyVals (not the chief, I've only seen one of those) and they all have the brass crossbar with the soldering.

Hello Guys

wearing the jacket, showing the belt

I honestly cant wait to get this jacket! Jorge you are making me impatient posting all these pics! :cry

 

[superDrool]

RD, I can see why you're impatient. The design has come along way in 14 months. I'd love to actually see Dan's version as well, to compare the two in person.

Jorge,
Is there any way you can post an image with the arms completely down at the side?

 

[comonbub]

Jorge...Also could you do a back profile with the shirt tucked in and also what Drool stated? This is one of those jackets you have to wear with the shirt tucked in unless it's shorter than the length of the jacket. Can't stand seeing shirts longer than jackets

dbaehw Whoops, repost.

Glad I'm not the only one - drives me frigging NUTS when a guy drops a wad on a nice jacket and can't tuck his shirt in. Secret for ya guys? Women will notice your shirt out and think you're a slob and never even notice a bitchin jacket. Important safety tip.

Pretty much everything has been re designed. . Its a new jacket all together now. Ill just have to try and sell mine and get a new one made.

 

[superDrool]

Ah, that's right. What seems to be your biggest concern, the shoulder adjustment? Is your current jacket not fitted right after you relaxed the shoulders?

My jacket is pretty tight in the armpit are and can be uncomfortable to wear. This also translates into not having enough room on the back to. i have a hard time driving with it. Its Gets very tight across the back and the shoulders.

 

[THEMAN]

Bowel - That's due to the incorrect sleeve shape and arm-hole configuration. Your jacket looked even more pointy shouldered than Drool's in the beginning. And frankly there is no amount of "relaxing" that will fix the issue. Since it seems to be sized slightly wrong for your body shape in those areas, maybe Heron will take it for an exchange or to retrofit the proper sleeve shape and drop the armhole a bit for you...

 

[bschossler]

The jacket is the best ! I really have to get one, it's a really cool looking jacket

 

[Bowelrock]

What is irritating is i gave Miguel my bicep/tricep and fore arm measurements to avoid this problem.. But i feel they were overlooked. Its comfortable to wear until i have to move my arms, Then it becomes very uncomfortable.

Been there with other makers... Pinching under the armpit and numbness in the hands. Makes a jacket unwearable for it's intended purpose. Personally I've returned them when it's happened to me. Jmo...

I have aleady really worn the hell out of it. A return is not possible. Maybe they will mod it with all the new additions and make a proper fit actoss my back and in my arms. i was under the impression the jacket would settle to be comfortable. It has so far but not even close to enough. I cant even talk on a cell phone when i have the jacket on, that's how tight the arms are.

 

[superDrool]

Have you spoken with Jorge about these fittting issues when the jacket arrived and you first put it on? It seemed you were happy with the jacket at first.
