Hi,
I have a WWII Impression tanker jacket which iv exchanged twice.
I wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue. The jacket material bulges over the knitted cuffs on both sides almost like the sleeve is to long but iv tried two different size jackets and both are the same.
I can post a photo later when I get home.
Its a really nice jacket but this has prevented me from wearing it.

Yes, as always, pictures are helpful.

Right photo how it should look, left is how it rides down when worn

I'd be perfectly fine with the right photo because it leaves room to reach for things.
I guess I expected the cuffs to be more taught if that makes sense. like in the website photos.
Like in this attached photo I doubt the guys who wore these really didn’t care about trivial things like this, you got what you were issued. Am I being to picky?
