I'm thinking of picking this leather jacket up and wanted some opinions on it

Does anyone own this jacket and can speak to the quality? also, do you think it would be possible to get the sleeves shortened?

I like the back, the front just looks a bit dull, for something that no doubt is going to cost a fair bit. It's not bad, just a bit meh.

You can certainly get the sleeves shortened, but that belt aound the sleeve opening will have to be moved or simply removed. This might result in a small mark where the belt loops were. If your tailor can't work with leather, then try the tailors at your local Ralph Lauren store.

Nice one. Move sleeves at the shoulder.
