Yeah I can deal with sleeves being wide but that body when measured against my other outerwear...little too wide for me.

These look really nice, but I still don't understand this recent fascination with varsity jackets. Why would I want to look like I'm wearing an old jacket from high school (or worse), have someone think I was a letterman at a local high school?
It's one thing to have a jacket whose style is vaguely inspired by a varsity jacket, but some of these look almost exactly like a high school one! In that sense it almost seems like a costume to my eyes-- Cool to wear occasionally, but not sure I would wear it every day.

Because they are nice piece of genuine Americana that have their own, honest, style. It is a quality product that does the job with aplomb and at a very good price.

Well, I never cared much for the Americana look myself. However, these jackets do look nice. So no hate from me.

Can length be added to a 34 and what are the measurements for that size?

Long is an option for all sizes--according to CKM, it adds 1.5 inches to sleeves--body can be longer too, by request. As for measurements, I don't have em offhand, but there's a 34 listed on this page--can anyone translate?
that navy and creme xs will be happening.Originally Posted by JO3B
when do we start sending monies?
You can order whenever--instructions in the first post.
