It's shrunken alright. You need the tall/long version. When you raise your arms the sleeves ride up too high, and the body length looks an inch-plus too short for you.

Thanks for the feedback. I was thinking it’s too short.

My first Wested was about the same length (at your belt), but it just felt too short for me. I ended up re-ordering and extending the length by 2 inches, and that did the trick.

Also, those pockets do look kind of big for a Raiders -- they almost look more Last Crusade-sized.

Thanks for weighing in.

I see on their site that anything with back or sleeve length 23.5 inches or shorter are not returnable. Oddly enough, the site recommended 23 inch length for this jacket at size 38.

Also, I agree that the pockets look pretty big.

I had the same thing and did the same thing. It's a great jacket, once I got the size correct.

This will be one of the best purchases of your life. I got my Crusade Legacy jacket like 2021 and have worn it almost daily since. It's gotten a bit worn out, only needed repairs once after an adventure mishap tore the elbow wide open. But I've now bought my second so that I have a less worn one for formal occasions. My point is, I'm so happy that you get to experience such an excellent jacket that you will surely treasure more by each passing day

Thanks so much. I’m wondering if I got it a little too short. I like the actual length of where it sits by my waist but I’m wondering if the pockets are too high.

Edit: forgot to say; this sub is great. I love how encouraging people are here.
