that shouldn't be a problem. if there are working cuff buttons there's always an opportunity to have it shortened from the shoulders though that will inevitably slim the arms a touch. and you don't look skinny (you work out bro :smarmy: ) so gotta be careful with that. if no [functional] cuff buttons then who cares if one goes away. and i can't tell without pics but some jackets are meant to have exaggerated sleeves (eg i have an ann and a nuur that are like that)

the forum has already cycled thru like 4 generations. when i started reading in '04, there was just one forum, no separate sw&d. from what i remember most of the threads were about nudies or edward green sales. ;-) sw&d is way more diverse now. it shouldn't even be called streetwear and denim imo, since it includes many other modes. i like reading it more than mc which seems to be filled with law students prepping for their first job.

btw.. i think a lot of mc crew have no clue about the sw forum aesthetic or interests here. but a few do. there's an interesting little tussle that points out some of this divide in the conservative business dress thread.

btw if you have an mc type tailoring question you could probably ask gdl or nobd (or me if you want). i think they will understand the sw pov. better than some of the rule-following threads.

Abu Dhabi and Dubai are vastly over-rated in the West. meh.... and certainly lacking the kinds of style we here appreciate.
