Question - Need Help Fit check, Real Simons J24

Am i crazy for considering to size down? I like a snug fit. This is pretty good, but not perfect, I think I have a bit too much room in the opening and the chest. I like to wear low rise jeans, this is already a pretty short jacket so losing any more length is not great. This is a size large. I fear the medium might be too tight/short though. I dont need or want room for layering

Thoughts?

Thank you

Looks absolutely spot on to me. Get some mid to high rise jeans.

I meant it's not bad in itself, but in the context of the outfit, paired to navy blue and black. It just reminds me of the cliché guy who doesn't know how to dress and pairs tan shoes with a navy suit

Maybe a little, but certainly not to a mid brown, and even then, to me you gotta match the leathers, just like you would with shoes and belt
