Hey, I think you are just buying a few sizes too too big, not that your frame doesn't "fill out" jackets.

Look where the shoulder seam is, its a good few inches off your shoulder and down your arm. Generally that means the jacket is sized too big for you. Of course I'm not into the military stuff and maybe thats how G3's are supposed to fit and also that in turn might make the sleeves shorter which it doesn't look like you need.

Dont keep raging on your frame, just find stuff that suits and fits it...there a lot of brands out there, or the option of custom.

Yeah, I totally get that. It's still a bit of a struggle though. I'd say I'm around a 38 but sometimes that size is too small. Maybe that's what breaking in is for? This jacket in question was only about £10, so I had to snap it up. It's not so bad if I wear a thick jumper underneath. Thanks for the insight, though.

Temperature dropped down to the low 60s F. With a howling wind this morning. I quickly threw on my Arcadia two tone. JC made this as a test jacket with russet Italian horsehide, and seal Italian horsehide. He first offered it to someone else who turned it down. I don’t turn down offers from JC.
