This item is a production sample in a standard size small. It is a gently worn item as we use this sample in our business from showroom appointments to photoshoots. The size and fit meet our standard size measurements for a size small. There may be slight marks on the leather or the item may appear to be pre worn. Note this leather is stiffer and less soft compared to our signature leather, and so its a snug size small.

Story
Meet The Ludlow Motor Jacket.
Ludlow Street is the down & dirty destination for music-lovers. Head downstairs in any one of the Tenement buildings that line the street where live music, foot tapping and hip shaking greet you at the door.
Sizing
- Style true to size
- Relax, oversized fit
- Body fit is longer and loose due to design
- Longer sleeves by design
- Length is 56cm (small)
- Model wears size SMALL
- Sophie McFadden (Model one) height is 5'9 (177 cm), bust 33.5 inches/ 77cm, waist 24 inches/61cm & hips 34 inches/ 86cm. Sophie's measurements are inline with our standard size extra small and if Sophie was a customer we would have recommended she buy the size XS.
Designer Fitting Notes: We redesigned the Ludlow Jacket to have a relaxed slouch fit yet still have a slim line for many years to come. This trench fits true to size. We suggest trying on your standard size to start. If the jacket fits snug then it's too small and suggest you size up. The pressure point would be your backside and hip area and we don't want this area to be snug. Note leather will give about a half of size over the lifetime of wear.
NEW SIZE. We are proud to introduce more sizing, so more women can wear this luxe basic. Introducing size XXL. Our new size offers a little bit more room in the arm sleeve to better fit a size 16 Australian women and a size 12 US women.
