    And so it begins .... :D

    Anyone else notice how jackets move in cycles around here? Belstaff to Menlo to Matchless to JV and back to Belstaff. Someone needs to buy a To Ki To soon or Barbour's gonna feel left out :o

    Edit: forgot to add the Armani in there ...

    Yep noticed the same, someone snags one and this triggers others. Fortunately I have the Billy Reed, Barbour, JV, Menlo to and the Royale Jackets from QOS only need the matchless for the full set which will come one day :D

    OP Patience and eBay are your friend! Happy Hunting!!

    Cheers :007)

    Sizing can be very dependent on the season you get. My review goes over that and has some links to great threads on AJB that discuss season and sizing. Hope that can be of help. -{

    James Brosnan great review thanks. Yes definitely disproportionate. Once I locate one I'll ask for the jackets actual measurements. Looks like a size medium is my best bet. So far I've been able to find a small and two large for sale. Not a medium to be found. Hopefully one will turn up soon.

    Someone please refresh me - is the orange lining a later run than the brown lining?

    James Brosnan thanks. I can use all the help I can get finding one ! Lol. Ive looked at sizing of other Menlo owners. A lot of variation. It's posible a size small would fit depending on the season ?. I need a jacket with about 18 1/2" shoulder, 44-45" chest. The latest Royale Haiti medium fits good.

    Yup, the orange lining was the last run and there is less distressing on that season. That's the one I ended up getting.

    Yeah, some people did size down, but it was season dependent as you suggest.

    From the ones I owned, im a 41-42 chest, medium was very snug but large too loose. But 44-45 chest u wud at least need a large

    I have a 42 chest. When I measure my jackets that fit well they measure at 44-45. A large Menlo would probably be to big on me also.

    These sure run big in the shoulders compared to the chest dimensions. Still a medium is probably my best bet. Still looking.

    No one out there has a size medium there willing to part with ?. I promise to give it a good home !. Lol
