John Varvatos Suede Jacket BACK? (Page 2 of 2)

Hi guys just to let you know I have now received the new JV suede racer jacket .
I am having a little trouble uploading the pictures on this site so I've sent them to jared nomak  to upload on here.
You will see that my original JV jacket has been well worn the new one is slightly darker in colour  which is no bad thing if you really want to wear it quite a lot ,
The herringbone stitching on the new jacket appears to be a slightly thinner gauge stitching than on the original jacket.
But that aside all of the stitching on the seams and round the pockets is identical to the original jacket including the inner lining , there is a slight difference on the inside behind the zip on the new jacket it has a suede panel on the original jacket it was a kind of nylon fabric.
Also the suede used on the new jacket feels slightly thicker to touch than on the original jacket but this might be due to the fact that I have worn my original jacket quite a lot .
So is it worth the price tag well in my opinion yes if you do not have one or  cannot get hold of one of the original jackets  or if you're like me you have an original jacket and you  have worn it quite a lot then yes it's best to have a back up  and for those of you that didn't buy one originally then yes I would definitely buy one now .

P.S  in the pictures of the jackets The original one appears to look slightly  Grey in colour this is just a trick of the light and the fact that if you brush  suede in a different  Direction it will look  slightly lighter or darker.

Thanks for the comparison photos Lq. Very useful and the differences are exactly as you described

And thanks Ross for posting

And there I thought that I was the only "revered silhouette" on here! 

thank you so much for pictures but... could you send more pictures about inside of both jackets to see differences?
thank you.

For me I find the JV is bigger in the same size. Not as fitted at the waist.

you can never trust in the size you are wearing because everytime the size of the cloth varies.
you can see a daniel craig on the movie, he uses a size medium and its very fitted. daniel craig is about 177cm tall. i meet people using size Small and is 190cm tall and he needs up his weight if he want this jacket becomes fitted as daniel craig in the movie.

Exactly what I wanted to hear (my echo chamber won't change the fit of the jacket when it arrives, but I'll sleep soundly until then).

Could this be the same jacket, but in black?

Products on zalando lounge are always at a large discount, that’s how they operate.

I’ve received the jacket today. I am pretty convinced that it is the screen used model, but in a different colour.

I did some research and Nordstrom was selling it as a ‚James Bond’ jacket.
