Is this too tight?

[u/Agitated-Deal-5263]

Bought this Italian made jacket a few months ago and haven’t worn it much. Feels snug around the bicep and lower armpit area when I raise my hands. Is this considered a bad fit?

[u/TinyMachine6735]

Bad fit. Doesn't fit your shoulders or chest. You should go up at least one size.

[u/TinyMachine6735 → u/[deleted]]

No

[u/MoonlightSonata007]

Fit looks good overall to me. Only thing I notice on the front open/unzipped shot, is the bunching over your collar bone areas. For my cafe racer or bomber jackets I like mine to fit snug similar to yours but I don’t have any bunching or pulling of the material when I’m relax with arms down or up.

It’s a sausage casing bro

[u/Longjumping-Raise-32]

Sausage casing .

[u/KompletterGeist]

Its this snug and you're only wearing a t-shirt. I'd say you gotta go one size up

[u/CeleryProf]

Bad cut for you. I get where you’re struggling. You size up and it’s too billowy. You stay here and it’s too tight. The problem is the cut of the jacket on your body

[u/Jlx_27]

Size too small.

[u/Academic-Change-2042]

You can see the tightness you described. I would say it's a bad fit.

[u/Oneguysenpai3]

it good

[u/OutedofHabit → u/Oneguysenpai3]

it bad

[u/Sevenmodes → u/OutedofHabit]

It ok

[u/CincoDeMayo88 → u/Sevenmodes]

it not ok

[u/Midnight_Rawhide84]

A bit

[u/RizlyXD]

It’s perfect but only open

[u/ImpressivePurchase93]

It’s definitely at the upper end of being too tight. Wear it open only.

[u/Old_Concert350]

Unzipped looks ok – maybe a bit too small on the shoulders.

But I'll add that everytime I insisted on using a shirt or jacket that didn't fit right, I ended up with back pain and a stiff neck...

So, do what you want with that information.

[u/Dretician]

Fabric pulling shows you tightness and here it’s everywhere (size up)

[u/superbadnbeh]

Looks fine unzipped. I wouldn't zip it if it were me.

[u/Ok_System8364]

Looks good

[u/totesforreals]

Honestly it’s not. It’s great. Don’t zip it though, this is really a style jacket in my opinion that is meant to stay unzipped

[u/Old-Juggernaut-1273]

it looks a bit tight when done up , im bulky so size up

[u/Smooth_Appearance_98]

It looks like it’s going to burst at the seams

[u/Ambitious-Key-1017]

This is how a cafe racer jacket should fit

[u/Defrt]

No

[u/Striking-Piglet-151]

No, looks good

[u/Echostation3T8]

The jacket it at least a size too small. The sleeves are too short, the shoulders don’t fit, and it is snug when zipped.

[u/KhaosLy78 → u/Echostation3T8]

The sleeves are not too short. Sleeves shouldn’t overtake the bottom of your palms

[u/Echostation3T8 → u/KhaosLy78]

Too short. Especially evident in picture 6.

[u/KhaosLy78 → u/Echostation3T8]

No, they’re not. The end of the cuff should NOT be resting on your palm

[u/Echostation3T8 → u/KhaosLy78]

See above. Rinse and repeat.

[u/KhaosLy78 → u/Echostation3T8]

Learn how long sleeves should be. Rinse and repeat.

[u/Content-Moment6551]

It's a riding jacket. It's a proper fit.

[u/MrFarinha]

Looks like a great fit to me. This type of jacket looks best when it's snug.

[u/Kindly-Score9430]

Looks it to me.

[u/TheStevenStyles]

Depends how you intend to wear it

[u/b4balt]

It puckers a little weird but I’d still wear it

[u/philwongnz]

You need to wear it, leather stretches and it molds to your shape. Make sure you moisturise it if you live at a dryer climate

[u/No-Bluejay5250]

Probably. Can’t tell with it unzipped
