    Fits perfectly! What version do you have?

    Thanks!

    Brown lining so I believe that's first run. I'm not 100% sure of that though.

    Looks absolutely fantastic man! Wear it in good health {[] if it is in your regular size and the sleeves are obnoxiously long, then it is V1, otherwise, it's a V2. Honestly, both versions are as good as each other as far as SA is concerned. It was V3 that strayed from the original.

    Thank you!

    It is my regular size XL and the sleeves are a tad too long so it looks like it's a V1.

    Anyone have thoughts on getting the sleeves tailored or should I just leave them be? -{

    Cant tell by your photo because your hand is in your pocket and the other is bent.

    I adjust my Menlo sleeves and loved it. Cost me $50.

    Best,

    I'm a medium in most jackets. My V 1 size medium sleeves are about 1 1/2" too long. I've taken it to my Taylor for shortening. i will post a picture when I receive the altered jacket.

    Ok top marks for initiative gents, but isn't this taking it a bit too far?

    Great advice I got one a few years ago sleeves just too long. I didn't have any probs with BR , JV or 4 Royale jackets or even a Levi's trucker jacket .
    I ended up not wearing the menlo much as I'd go for the Royale Harrington or Haiti.
    But have now shortened sleeves for $85 and will get loads more use

    If it was blue it could almost pass for the Altaussee Mr. White jacket.

    Sorry to bring up an old thread but...

    After being a non member since leaving graciously by selling my V2 to a "desperate to join the club" member here 4 years ago, a patient wait, a lot of haggling later...

    My invite via a mint v1 is in the post!

    It was the one we laughed about on eBay buddy... Turned out Noah was a very genuine 007 kinda chap...
    Over a few emails and story exchanges he decided his price was too ambitious and that it deserved to go to a true 007 fan.
    Sensible price agreed and USPS did a sterling job, no fees incurred and arrived safely in 3 days.
    It's unmarked inside with nothing visible outside. I believe him from condition it's only been worn a couple of times.
    Colour comes up very brown on pics . Colouring in reality is very SA
