Hi,
I am a newbie who just purchased my first bomber jacket. Was wondering if I could have some opinion from those who are more knowledgeable. Your thoughts are much appreciated.
I am 5'9 about 178lbs and usually wear 44/54. Initially I tried this jacket at 46/56 because SA said this particular jacket runs small. The shoulder was snug but the stomach area was tight when buttoned (I do have a bit of excessive belly). There's not enough room for a sweater either. So I went with 48/58 which seems more comfortable overall. But as I tried it on more at home it seems the jacket maybe too big as there seems roomy around the shoulder and the arm pits. With certain postion/motion, "wrinkles" or "bags" seem to form just between my torso and shoulder joint just above the arm pits. Is this normal? It seems like a big jump going from 44/54 to 48/58 even if the jacket runs small. Please see the pictures in the link.
Thank you very much for your thoughts.
