Hello,
I just received 3 sport coats from PC today. Those are the first jackets I buy from them so the fit is not quite there yet. I have 2 free remake for each jacket but I would like to nail the fit for the next one if possible. At least, in the areas that can't be fixed by a tailor (ex. shoulders & sleeves unless cut from the shoulders).
I think I have an idea of what's wrong with them but I would appreciate some advice on what needs to be tailored and what fits right.
First, all 3 of them are extremely comfortable and wear just like sweaters which is what I am looking for.
Here is what I think about the jackets. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
1. All 3 jackets have the sleeves too wide and way too long.
2. All 3 jackets have a small collar gap on the right. I think it's due to my posture. Can a tailor fix that?
3. The tweed jacket feels a bit bigger and may be too big on the shoulders and maybe the body as well. Compared to the other 2, it wears bigger.
4. The camel colored jacket feels fine in the shoulders but not sure whether or not a bit smaller would be better. I think the body is fine.
5. The blue jacket fits very good (it has the lighter fabric of the 3). The only thing I would change or alter are the sleeves and the collar gap.
I know they are very wrinkled but they were just out of the bag when I took the pictures.
@dieworkwear Don't hate me for tagging you again but I am in need of your wisdom.
I appreciate the advice.
