Just a question about the fit of a leather jacket. I realize a lot of leather jackets have that bat-wing effect because of the large armholes. What I was wondering is if that fit is okay for these days or should I get rid of the jacket?

Also, where do you shorter slim people go to shop for your clothes? everytime I go to a clothing store, most of the time the sizes are too large and I have to go browse the teens young adult sections, and moat of the clothes there are... bad to say the least.

Anyways, thanks for any replies.

I don't have any right now and don't have a camera, but I can say that the bottom lifts about 4-5 inches when I lift my arms to or above perpendicular to my body. The shoulders lift too, but it bunches up.
