I like to wear "fun" and "quirky". socks to mix it up a little. It's kind of my thing. I get a lot of compliments in Japan. Sometimes I wear a really garish tie. Fun!

I'd say just shorten the sleeves a hair and take the body in a bit, keep it!

casey if you like it, then keep it and get it altered. buying then flipping for small fixable problems is silly.

Casey - tailor it if the shoulders aren't too big and you feel confident that it will fit good enough after the tailoring has been done.

Everything that hasn't felt good from the moment I put it on has been bothering me enough to sell it later.

So much this :( You convince yourself you'll learn to live with it, and then months later when it's still unworn you realize what an awful decision that was...

I don't think it's just that the sleeves are too long, though. It kind of looks big in the shoulders, if the photo of the model is anything to go by. He could shorten the sleeves, but I'm not sure it would be an ideal fit.
