SIZING: OK here's the much simplified version of what I SHOULD have said: The L looks worse buttoned up but better unbuttoned. The XL looks better buttoned up but worse unbuttoned. Basically the material's too stiff, I think, to be worn big - the XL billows out when unbuttoned (eg 07:11) and makes me look rounder than I am. It's less flattering *when unbuttoned.* Really should have done more side by side comparisons of buttoned vs unbuttoned, sorry! ✰Also check out my 10 Best Boots On the Market! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5zYeayvmsuBfac

Nick, just like your buddy modified his by ordering extra canvas, you should have the XL tailored to fit. $300 for a jacket that’s too small to button? That’s settling. Don’t settle. OTR garments rarely fit correctly and if they do you must be slim, non athletic (that’s no way to live). Clothes need to fit you and not the other way around. The XL looks good on you AND is 100% functional. Take it to a tailor and it will perfect on you and still be 100% functional.
@scootermcgoot3 жыл бұрын
I am also a similar size than you and lift too much at the gym. As a result the large supply jacket was a bit too tight in the shoulders and chest and a little short in the sleeves. And agreed with you that the XL was a bit baggy. I am wondering though if the XL would look better as the materials age and the wax settled. It's very stiff in the beginning so maybe it looks better after a lot of wear. any thoughts?

I agree with most of the other commenters . The XL looks much better to my eyes. I'm an older viewer, so maybe i never switched to what you are calling a " modern fit " . To me, it looks like a modern " doesn't fit " . I always thought a jacket should be functional as well as comfortable, and it always seems that a tight jacket would be uncomfortable. Of course, I have the added personal issue of my weight being distributed a little differently- 6 ft tall and 195lbs, with broad shoulders , a definite stomach, and very thin from the waist down. I probably couldn't even button the large in this jacket.

@davidodysseus28082 жыл бұрын
XL looks significantly better on you. The L billows out around your chest because it's becoming too taut, where the XL has an uninterrupted silhouette, which as we move away from too tight clothing, and now the herd is moving to too baggy, what is ideal is the middle, proper fitting silhouettes. If your jeans are too tight and show your keys or cell phone, you need to get a looser fit, and if you can't button up a jacket without stress on the buttons, again, you need a larger fit. We seem to be from the same generation, and I think you, like me, learned to go down too far in sizing thinking it made for a more stylish fit. Now, I think it's about right fit, which is ultimately most classic and timeless. Also, always tuck in your shirt with a jacket like this, be it t shirt or button up, this will create the separation the jacket it meant to cause.

I find it kinda funny that you bash on Barbour jackets for being boxy, not fitting, weird looking garments that Americans don´t like and that are more expensive (I exaggerate just a bit and BTW Barbour has numerous different lines that are more trim fitting, including the International line). Next topic: The RT jacket doesn´t really fit and is a heritage jacket in which you can´t work... Oh and it´s unlined and has a worthless button hole, apart from the buttons that pull apart if the rest of the jacket fits in a modern way...And price: 295$ versus 329€ (for a lined, fully functional jacket that is the Barbour in Europe). Yes, the RT jacket looks damn cool, but only in L and that comes at a price of not being able to fully use it.

Unfortunately, being a small guy, stock jackets and shirts don't fit me. I wish Peter Manning made a waxed jacket that looks more like the Rogue.

This jacket is pretty darn short in the torso though Eric, have you tried it? It might be great for you

@@Stridewise Thanks Stridewise! The main thing that doesn't fit me with stock jackets and shirts is sleeve length. I have to cuff almost all my jackets (except Peter Manning). I'll to see if anyone carries Rogue in Seattle. Maybe the Blue Owl.

The jacket is unlined? That seems like a big deal if you can feel the wax on your skin. I wish you had talked about that more.
@Stridewise2 жыл бұрын
It is unlined but I don't feel super waxy on my skin to be honest, some brands incorporate the wax all the way through the canvas so it's on your skin but this one just has it on the outside

Love the video as always Nick! How would you say this compares to the Flint & Tinder trucker jacket you reviewed in another video? Trying to decide between the two for my 5'5" stocky frame.
@Stridewise3 жыл бұрын
I wear my Flint and Tinder more often because it's super casual, like a trucker jacket is just easier to wear with a baseball cap and old sneakers, you know? This is better for dressing up and looking smart. It's also great for casual wear too of course but I feel a need to be more put together with the RGT.
@geeksplainedpod3 жыл бұрын
@@Stridewise Thanks so much for the reply! I appreciate the insight. Typically as a shorter fellow I happen to like the trucker jacket cut as the body is usually cut shorter, but I hear the F&T trucker is longer than other trucker jackets. Is the body longer than the RgT? Thanks again for your time!
