Thanks for all the feedback! I am leaning towards returning everything for now. If the red jacket in #2 goes on sale, I might reconsider (the price is too steep for me to keep and I feel like I need to take some time to think how much wear it will get).
I am not too fond of how the red jacket in #2 looks when open but overall the fit is good.
Just in case anyone else is looking at these jackets - the Tahari jacket is very soft and lightweight - would be perfect for right now. The AM red jacket is much more substantial (I was surprised how different it felt from all the other jackets I have tried). It would be a true outerwear jacket, probably suitable for late fall/early winter.
As far as the overall fit, it seems like all leather jackets I have tried look barrel-shaped on me when zipped up. I don't think I have a potbelly but this definitely makes me wonder if I should even bother with leather jackets. The back on most of these is wrinkly when zipped up - I think only very cropped jackets like the Muubaa do not have that issue on me.
Oh, and DH was dismissive of the brown Tahari jacket and fond of the red AM, so there is that, too.
