Those of you that have ordered and received you FS.
How did you go about making sure you received the proper sleeve length.

For instance, I think Patterson said that he wears a 46 and according to the chart a 34.5" sleeve would come up well short as I wear a 38R or 40R. The sleeve lengths for those are 32.5" and 33" respectively. No way is this gonna work. The way they measure sleeve length is the same way you measure for a dress shirt. And in my case I wear a 34 or 35.

Just looking how to order correct the first time.

Also, the script on the Expedition webpage says this is a fitted jacket. Does that mean that it is suppossed to fit snug...like the bar scene when he has the jacket zipped up a bit? This makes sense in that if you order it too big to allow for "future" growth or for "layers" of clothing then the side straps wouldn't be as effective because you would have to pull them all the way snug because of the excess leather.

Ramble on Johnny...Ramble on!
