Maybe the next one they get issued will be the perfect fit... then the next one... and the next...
Thats such a great way of "looking "at it !!
Sod it if my sleeves are a touch long !!
Yep, we have covered this before.................. One of the odd dichotomies with collecting jackets is having too many to wear resulting in none (only one or two maybe) really being worn-in resulting in the look we want. Kinda silly...............
When we order a repro, I guess we want the fit we want but I do think there has been this prevailing idea that the jacket should be trim fitting and there's really little argument for it outside of personal tastes which I guess is all the justification one needs.
However, as flying garments, I really think a roomier jacket makes more sense...............as a "kit" item.
However, if one is not flying in it, doesn't matter...........
