Hello, all. I have a jacket sizing question.
I seem to find myself between sizes these days. In my younger years, I typically wore a 42R jacket. At my "new normal" size, 44R is generally best for buttoning and comfort. I'm 5'10 and around 215. Stocky build with fairly thick limbs.
The 44R in this Harris Tweed jacket (see attached photos) fits relatively well, although maybe slightly large in the shoulders and mid-section. However, dropping down a size or two is tricky for me.
I'd love any feedback on the general fit as seen in the photos, and also curious about if anyone thinks tailoring would be beneficial.
Thanks in advance. Getting older is no fun. Lol
