okay so it's the NATURE of it that's different. i was honestly so worried i would tear it every time i drove or even boot my boots on. Aside from that i absolutely adore the coat and i hope it lasts me a lifetime. perfect color, love the style, the softness of the fur, etc.
just adding one...
yeah but i got that resolved
yes i am annoying, sorry about that. i just spent a ton and saved up from a lot of overtime specifically for this and i am scared that i made a huge mistake
WOW do they still make those? Looks fantastic
my sleeves look longer than yours, maybe it's the bat wing affect from the armholes? another person suggested that the jacket moves due to the excess material pulling it all forward. perhaps i can get it tailored again to remove the excess
thanks for your reply, I am in the quebec area. It is warm enough, but I always wear a sweatshirt underneath any jacket regardless of temperature. I had a b15 with biswing back for 12 years though and it was made quite large and already broken in when i got it, so i think i am used to more...
so i got a schott b3 in a size up because i like oversized clothing. Now i did have to get 1 inch tailored off the sleeve from the bottom (he did not touch the shoulder or top) but i have some questions about break in
first, should it be difficult to lift my arms over my head or to put a hat...
i ended up buying a Schott b3 one size up from my chest. question about break in, is it normal to not really be able to cross my arms? Also my sleeve rides a bit high when i move my arms to drive or something
additionally, the back feels a bit stiff and pulls a bit, Is that normal for a new jacket?
okay so even if i didn't gain, it would be just fine? It's perfect as is but i am just worried about it post-break in
i could of course get it altered but that's expensive
If i buy a new shearling jacket, if the length down to the waist is fine, can i expect it to remain the same way? will the shearling compress and fall lower? Also if i get a bit bigger in my arms, chest, etc. would that affect the way it falls too?
Well yes but I'm ordering from outside the US so I have to pay about 150 dollars.
I've read on the lounge that it's okay to go up a little due to the shearling taking space but I wanted more opinions
Getting a Schott b3 and should I size up? I wear a cotton lined b15 leather jacket with a 22 pit to pit and the size 36 Schott is 22.5. is that acceptable? I hear Schott is a bit oversized
what b6 are you referring to exactly because this guy has a seal brown eastman
