be honst with urself. Do u look like jude law or more like the hipster douche with the sunglasses. I remember reading he wore his suits a size small in alfie to look poor, like he couldn't afford a new one or something. So unless u look like jude law and are actually poor, u have no reason to size down 2 sizes. btw as much as I love the fit of that model in all black, if dude lifts his arm, something is gonna bust. The fit of steve mcqeen's jacket is pefect. Slim but u still scratch the back of your head without worrying about something popping.

It actually looks like the shoulders fit you fine, but the arms and the overall length of the jacket is too short. I don't know if you can have new arms sewn on, but if you can't you should just rip them off and make it into a SLEEVELESS SUIT JACKET. But keep the arms in case you want to sew them back on for winter.
