Shopping online, as most of us do nowadays, you’ll want to know your measurements to help ensure a great fit. The sketch below shows where to take measurements to compare to clothing you already own. Keep in mind, however, those measurements will only be helpful if taken correctly. Tip: don’t let the measuring tape hang loose when you’re measuring, but avoid pulling the tape excessively tight. Here’s how to get accurate measurements:
Length: Measure from the bottom of the collar to the waist seam.
Shoulders: Measure between the top of the sleeve seams.
Chest: Measure the entire circumference of your chest. Begin with one end of the measuring tape 1 inch below the armhole at the fullest part of your chest. Then, keeping the tape level, wrap it around (under your armpits, around your shoulder blades, and back to the front) to get the measurement.
Sleeve: Accurately measuring sleeve length is tough to do yourself, so ask someone to help with this. Beginning with one end of the tape at the top of your arm, then down to your wrist. This entire length is your arm-length measurement.
Do the same rules apply to how a jacket should fit as to other jackets or outerwear? Not necessarily. Read on for details.
Leather will stretch over time, so you never want to start with a leather jacket that is too big. But that doesn’t mean you want a jacket that’s too small! It’s also essential to allow room for layers under your leather jacket. Here are a few specific tips for finding a leather jacket that fits just right:
Chest: Leather jackets ought to fit more snugly through the chest than a regular overcoat, but consider the types of layers you may want to wear underneath. If you live in a warm climate and will be layering over light clothing such as a dress shirt or t-shirt, we recommend adding 2-3 inches to your measured chest size. If you live in a colder climate and layering over heavier clothing such as sweaters, we recommend adding 3-4 inches to your chest size. If you land between sizes, we recommend sizing up to the next size available. Tip: you should be able to comfortably zip or button your leather jacket all the way up, even if you plan to wear it open.
Shoulders: Suit coat rules do not apply to leather jackets, so it's okay if the shoulder comes down your arm a few inches. However, even though the leather will give over time if the shoulder seam is higher than your shoulder, the jacket is too small.
Waist: The bottom of your leather jacket should not reach below the bottom of your belt/top of your thigh. This is likely shorter than other overcoats you've owned, but a leather jacket that hangs well below the belt is too big unless you're wearing a long leather trench coat.
Sleeve Length: The proper sleeve length on a leather jacket is consistent with pretty much any jacket: sleeves should end at your wrist.

"Excellent jacket of high quality. The leather is beautiful, and as always, top tier service from Buffalo Jackson. I originally ordered the 2x, but opted for a little extra room and exchanged for a 3x and they took care of me within 24 hours. Excellent company and an excellent item that will last for years!"
"This is the first real leather jacket that I've bought, so I did a lot of research on different brands. Buffalo Jackson stood out to me because of their great quality and styles. I have to say that I am extremely satisfied with my choice! The jacket is amazing, everything from the quality zippers, quilted interior lining, grain and texture and my personal favorite, the SMELL! My goodness does it smell amazing, just like real leather should, rich and warm! I wore it in my car on a trip to the cider mill and the whole car filled with the scent of leather haha. The Buffalo leather is extremely durable and should hopefully last me a lifetime with proper care. I'm looking forward to breaking it in more this fall and watching as it patinas over the years! Grab one of these limited edition jackets while you can and enjoy it!"
"All I can say is WOW! This looks and feels like a $1000 plus Italian leather jacket. I love the worn-in patina look, and the leather is so soft right out of the box. No break-in period will be needed. The water buffalo leather texture is amazing too. I researched for days on several other websites and settled on Buffalo Jackson! I am so pleased and have wanted a leather jacket for years after living in Italy, and never bought one. A high price does not always equate to quality, but this isn't cheap either. I am 5'9'' and 175 lbs with a "Dad Bod" and a bit of a small belly at 63. The large fits me perfectly, as if it were tailor-made. The sizing tool worked! I wear a 44 short in a suit jacket and have 32/33 inch sleeve length. I would highly recommend all Buffalo Jackson products and will now be buying a quilted version! Top quality and excellent handmade fabrication. You can trust this company for producing high-quality leather products."
"Absolutely flawless, classic design, stitches are perfect bought two jackets glenwood and a maverick was a little worried I’m a big guy and leather jackets usually fit tight but both jackets were perfect and I’m sure they will break in beautifully. Can’t wait for winter so I can start wearing them."
"Good quality product, nice fit and finishes. I am 5'8 weight 190lb, workout 3 times a week and had a regular diet. This fits perfect."
"I like the style and look. I only think the inner stitching doesn't feel luxurious; it's kind of a low-quality finish. The outer finishing is very good. It needs a little padding and nice quality inner materials."
"Easy purchase, quick delivery with solid packaging of the item. Nice quality leather. L true size for me"
"I recently retired after 20 years of flying F-18s. I wanted to wear a nice brown bomber jacket, but the Navy issued version is low quality. The Buffalo Jackson version is a great fit, high quality and very similar to the authentic military version. I wish I would have bought this 20 years ago to wear with my flight suit."
"My Son love his jacket. Great product."
"I bought the bomber jacket in brown for my husband for Christmas and he absolutely loved it, but it was just a little tight in the shoulders. Buffalo Jackson made the exchange so easy. Within a week, my husband had his new XL jacket and we are both so pleased. The quality is top notch and I suspect that this jacket will only get better with age."
