Well 38 was sold out so I grabbed the 40 which might be too big. I guess we will know in a few days.

Anyway, I think I want the Blister Biker jacket, but the one I just bought said Suede, so I might not like it. :shrugs:

Yes indeed - you will know in several days :graucho:

I am not familiar with the fit of Bal jackets, so cannot comment on this.
This RO Classic style is also known as being unfriendly to those that have "bigger sisters", so you may run into the same thing with RO. The sleeves are also fitted/narrow and the cut on RO looks like it may be slimmer, so you may be okay with the fit. The classic cut is supposed to be tight fitting.

The suede jacket may surprise you and I don't know the leather type - you'll have to let us know. There is a tag inside the interior pocket of the jacket, you'll find the info here that will tell you the fabric content, the model number and leather type.

IF you are not familiar with his blistered leathers, you may be surprised and it's so random (depending on what you get) - the leather may NOT feel like leather at all. Some people flat out don't like this leather treatment for this reason and it tends to wear quickly at the cuffs. It took me awhile to get used to this leather.

NOW, the suede should feel like suede and I'm sure will have a richness that the blistered leathers do not have. This past Holiday I saw a suede jacket in the style that you got in pig skin (which is absolutely one of my favorite leathers) and it was gorgeous, will only get better looking with age, it will get softer and take on a lovely patina and will wear like iron!

Please DO let us know about it when you get it :)
Keeping my fingers crossed for you too!

Thank you for your thoughtful response! I will update when I get it. It's so strange really, that I have no idea what I just bought! Lol

Fingers crossed.

Ok thank you! So if I want a jacket that's slightly more substantial I should wait for the F/W version? Do you know when they release those?

Also the Suede biker jacket I bought yesterday has this long code. It was sent when they emailed me the confirmation. RP13F07008/LSY 09. I cannot find this code on the list someone compiled. What does this mean?

We don't know....LOL!
You'll have to take pics, post 'em, and let us know about the leather when it arrives!
The letter "L" is leather. Have no clue about the SY portion.

AND - this is sale time for the mainstream retailers. You can always find better prices on YOOX, The Outnet, etc - but selection will be limited, as well as sizes.

Hmmmm - Naska in Dusk?????
Don't you have another RO in Black? If so, I vote for Dusk.

I don't have a Naska.....it's not the most flattering for my figure.
Leathers are gorgy!
