shoulders seem quite small for a US 42/44 and the sleeve length seems short... altered?

vintage piece with those old school patch pockets with flaps =)

I was just guessing on the size based on the chest measurement. Perhaps this was designed to be worn looser because I agree the other measurements indicate a smaller size. Perhaps I should have sized this as a 40ish, instead.

I can't be positive if this was ever altered, but I don't see any signs of it on the material.

Is there any room to let out in the sleeves?

Feels like there is about 1.5-1.75 inches of linen. I'm no tailor, but I think you'd be able to get another inch out of them.

cool SC - perhaps remeasure? the shoulders seem quite small, as does the arm length
