Hi guys, first thread here. I'm have problem buying jackets and coats. I'm 5'6, chest 36". So for most brands, size Small suit me. The thing is my arms are shorter than usual, so if I wear a small size, chest is perfect, but sleeves are longer. If I wear xs, sleeves are perfect, but chest will be too tight. Is there any brand that make shorter sleeve jackets and coats? Thanks for sharing.

If you're talking about sport coat sleeves, get them shortened by your local tailor.

as far as finding a brand that compliments a small chest and general frame, try eidos napoli.

Thanks. I'm talking about pretty much all kinds of jacket. Casual jacket, bomber jacket etc. For denim jacket and shirts, Imcan wrap them up, no pronlem. But for jacket, it's hard to find a brand that suits me.:cloud:
