Hello all,
This is my first leather jacket. I went with a size 44 because I have wide shoulders.
It has quite an oversized look which I don't mind.
The sleeve length is usually good, but that is because the chest is roomy. Once I pull my armpit to the pit hole of the jacket, the sleeve becomes too short.
The problem that I have is that when I'm riding my bike, the sleeves become too short because my armpit pulls to the sleeve hole.
i wanted to get some general thoughts on this fit, as well as opinions on whether the sleeves of goat will stretch with time....
its a shame because I really wanted to get into leather jackets with the goal of having one jacket to serve for a long time. However the more I research, the more it seems like a bottomless pit :')
thanks very much.
Eugene
