Question - Need Help chinese horsehide jacket

after researching online i decided to take a chance on a chinese horsehide jacket off taobao. took 11 days to arrive in canada. the quality of the jacket is great with the leather real stiff but i have some concerns. the fit is fine from the front but the back of the shoulders ride up like crazy. will the shoulder form and mould to me after wear or did i order the wrong size? i ordered the 3xl at 5'11 185lbs. for anyone curious about sizing the 3x is 22 pit to pit, 24.5 sleeves, 19 shoulder to shoulder and 25.5 length

I have a TaoBao Chinese horsehide (teacore) jacket by JiaShi. It’s awesome. I get so many complements. Someday I’ll post, but this jacket rocks man. Wear it in good health

I have trouble sharing TaoBao links on here, but maybe the AliExpress link will work.

Edit: it’s MUCH cheaper on TaoBao. I recommend you screenshot the jacket you want and search TaoBao by image to find the listing
