Tommer - Thanks for the great pics and many congrats on a superb looking jacket, I love colour of the hide and the choice of the lining. I wouldn't worry too much about the restricted feel of the arms, when the leather breaks and relaxes this will go. You waited patiently for a long time for this jacket, so I hope it turns out to be everything you wanted. Enjoy and wear it in good health.
Doublegun - The pic doesn't do the jacket justice but the fit looks fine to me. It might feel tight at the moment but I think you will be amazed at the way the jacket loosens up when the hide breaks in. I could hardly move in my Highwayman when it was fresh out the box, but now it's completely broken in and I have had to cinch in the straps almost to maximum. The body of the jacket has relaxed beyond recognition and where I could only wear a shirt under it, when it was new, I can now wear a sweater no problem. Just give it time and I think you will be very happy with the fit.
Cheers
