@Mizmazzle
I think you could even size down .
Sleeves are really long
you must be
% happy with it bro -
@Daniel-San I hear ya. When I wear it over a regular shirt the body and shoulders are spot on. I wouldn’t want that to change. Over a tee it’s a bit over sized. But I’ll be wearing it over shirts most of the time. I’ll post some pics in a bit over a shirt/ UHF.
-
Agree with @Daniel-San and it looks like you could size down.
-
How about spots like this? Normal? Or Stains from
Wear? Guy I bought from said it was brand new. Looks perfect otherwise
In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
-
@Mizmazzle I’ve got the brown one and have not seen spots like that. Could it be a waterproofing spray that he applied?
-
@Mizmazzle
mate this looks definitely not brand new
would carefully try to wash it out
hope you can get rid of it -
@Mizmazzle take a look on YouTube for Kirby Allison suede care. Or you can directly to the Kirby Allison website.
-
regarding the fit @Mizmazzle to me the torso works perfect, arms too long but you could get them altered by any furrier or so
-
@Mizmazzle fit looks dynamite here with the overshirt underneath! If that’s how you plan to wear it I think it’s on the money.
Would try and get straight answer from the seller on the sleeve marks, but I can’t imagine it’s something you would have too much trouble cleaning off/out.
Saw elsewhere I think on eBay or maybe style forum someone selling or having sold one with shortened sleeves and it looked great, so it definitely can be done if the sleeve length is the only hiccup FWIW!
-
@jackbrochill much appreciated my man. Sending the seller pics now. He seems like he means well so far.
-
@Mizmazzle that sleeve length would drive me crazy. with the money to have it altered if you are happy with the rest of the fit. From the back the shoulders look a bit wide, but not as bad with the Wabash layered under. If they only had a size between medium and large.
-
@jordanscollected I got a great deal on it. So I’m pretty heavy leaning on having the sleeves shortened. It would be perfect if they were about 1.5” shorter. I had to run an errand early this morning and it was pretty chilly out still. Threw it over a UHF and it was super easy to wear. Mobility in a jacket is important to me and this one gives me room to move and raise my arms etc.
-
unless you want to keep the cuff flipped back all the time, imo you gotta get those sleeves shortened if you keep it.
Same notes as everyone else with the shoulders being on the big side of acceptable. As for the marks on the sleeve, it's hard to see, but are there 2 to 3 more horizontally across the mid-back? Looks like on the left and right seam and one almost in the middle?
