Just picked up a Schott x 3sixteen Perfecto this week. I love everything about the fit, except for the arms which I think are maybe a bit long, and /maybe/ a bit large as well.

Do the arms look ridiculous as they are now? If I were to get the arms tailored, what length/taper should I target?

Very random question, but I’m curious how you deciding on sizing? I think the fit looks spot on, by the way.

I’m trying to decide on my first Schott. I’m currently torn between the 519 and Per22.
The 3sixteen collab is based on the 519.

I am 6’1, 215, with a 44” chest. I tried on a L and it was good but snug in the torso. Thinking an XL may be a better fit at first compared to the L. However some say buy it snug and let it mold/stretch. Did you find that the case?

Thanks for your time and insight.
