Was so excited I was able to snag one of these when it dropped but the sizing just isn't right for me. I've worn it once to my office to try and convince myself it fits but here we are. I used my steamer to get out any wrinkles or creases I would have caused doing that. Still incredibly stiff and sulfury.
I did take it to Guevel in KC and had the storm pleat in the back sewed shut more. I'm guessing it's because my shoulders were too wide but when it was on the pleat would open up too much and lay weirdly. It's all on the inside of the jacket and if you don't experience that a seam ripper can remove the thread quick and easy. I saw someone else on the SJ Facebook group do the same thing last year successfully and it gave me the idea. Last two pics show it.
Measurements are:
Ptp 22"
Back shoulder 18.5"
Sleeves 26"
Back Length 28.25"
