All Saints Leather Jackets

I’ve searched and read the threads but I guess I wanted to hear from people with similar body types/sizes. I’m just on the cusp between 14/16 (14 in most things) - so you think I’d get away with the 14 in the jackets? That appears to be the biggest size. Stunning jackets, and I guess I could return if it doesn’t fit (I’d have to order online) but any experiences would be appreciated. I’m eyeing the Cargo.

Thanks!

I can't help but watching with interest. I'm dying to get an AllSaints leather jacket and hovering between 14/16.

I'm 14/16 (although more 16 bottom and 14 top, but I'm 36FF) and I have this in 14:

It fits perfectly - and you're not supposed to zip up a biker so yeah, you'll get away with it, I'd say.

Oooh glad I’m not the only one! :)

I am the same size and have several all size 14. They vary between styles and also individual jackets in the same style. The one that is the most roomy and I tend to wear the most is the Bales. I did tell the lovely chap in the shop off for them only going up to a size 14 though and he had to agree! I'm sure they are limiting their market. Good luck - hope you fine the perfect jacket. They are beautiful.

I'm usually a size 14 and bought the Cargo in a size 12. They advise in the shop to go for a tighter fit as they give a little over time. I think you'd be fine in a 14 but I'd wait for 30% off sale! I think they do them twice a year?

Atalune · 07/08/2019 20:40

I’m a different size but I have sized down and it fits so perfectly on me. The have some give in them so I would say confidently size down.

TigerCameForTea · 07/08/2019 20:40

How much?! Awful lot of money to wear a dead animal over your shoulders 😣

cheesenpickles · 07/08/2019 20:58

I'm lucky enough to have an outlet in my city. I used to go in there size 18 and sigh all over the lovely clothes and jackets.

Writersblock2 · 07/08/2019 21:49

Do the outlets have the jackets? I’m in Florida later this year and they have the outlet. Grin

The one down here definitely does. Smile

Writersblock2 · 07/08/2019 22:36

Great, thanks! I may hold off and check them out. Not too long to wait!

20% off at the Chester outlet shop last week, the 14 was generous and nice and long in the arms too.

Galicali · 08/08/2019 09:00

All Saints have a sale atm on their website

Skittlesandbeer · 08/08/2019 15:15

Must change a lot between styles. I’m a 12 on top, and their size 12 is a no-go on me. I’m not even busty. Even the arms are too skinny. Won’t risk it again, since I have to pay heavy shipping (from far away). If I knew I could pop into their shop to exchange, I’d try again. The styles are fab. But too heavy for return shipping, for me.

Writersblock2 · 08/08/2019 17:50

@Skittlesandbeer - that sucks! Which style did you get?

Gutted. Went and tried on some jackets in the all saints outlet yesterday and didn't like them at all. They all had something slightly "not right" with them and wouldn't do up (even though do don't do up a moto jacket). The sizing felt really jacked.

cheesenpickles · 29/08/2019 18:17

Also. I've lost weight and am now about a 12 so really thought they'd fit nicely.

Grafittiqueen · 30/08/2019 19:02

I'm a 14 in most shops and wear a size 12 bales.

Ladybirdbookworm · 31/08/2019 05:02

writersI'm in Florida at the moment ....stuck because of the imminent hurricane .... The all saints outlet has leather jackets for about $300 with an extra 30 - 40% off

myknickersknackersknockers · 31/08/2019 07:15

I’m a 14 but have big boobs and I’ve found mine has stretched a lot. I wanted one for so long but because of how much they are I thought about it for ages. Now I never take it off. You can definitely size down.

StarShapedWindow · 31/08/2019 07:43

I’m a 12 and bought the 14 because I wanted to be able to wear it over thicker tops in the winter and although I never wear it zipped up I wanted to be able to and the 12 wouldn’t zip over my chest. I think they come up quite snug and mine hasn't changed over the years.
