I picked up a pair of Harris Tweed jackets. I am in between sizes with a 38.5" chest and a 35" waist so I got a 38s and 40s. The shoulders of the 40 feel too big, but I like the color. The shoulders end about 1/2" over the bony point in my shoulder. I am not sure if sizing down would be beneficial as the blue is a slimmer cut than the green which is more traditional cut. Ideally I'd keep these jackets for a long while, and I just get more dad bod as I grow old so maybe having it a bit bigger isn't so bad?
The arm length look good. I assume as I wear them it'll bunch up slightly around the elbow by about 1/4" . Should I bother tailoring the sleeves up a bit or wear them out and see?
