Ditto. Well, I don't have any jackets with cuffs but the two that I wear the most have sleeve zippers that don't have the sleeve zip lined so they get pretty wide when unzipped. Sometimes for extra blasphemy, I roll up the sleeves only 'cause I can. I think that looks pretty stupid, though. XD

today I collected my jacket back from adding an extra line of stitches along the main zipper flap, I prefer non visible stitches as far as it can be done, but apparently after the leather has soften a bit, and how the jacket fit, lately the main zipper was getting exposed and leaving unsightly roll at the edges, so I asked for an extra line of stitches through the zipper tape to make it really strong, it is a compromise but now it will faithfully cover the main zipper all the time, they pick a very stealthy thread color it is almost invisible, I also ordered a glasses soft pouch to be worn on the belt from my sketch, and they didn't charge me for the jacket fix, so I'm a happy guy right now.
