Eastman A2 - bespoke Peal Harbor (ie massive!) - Value?

[WingAndaPrayer]

Ok so moment of truth - pit to pit is 65cm or 25.5”. Shoulder hem (where sleeve meets shoulder)
To bottom of knitted waistband is 70cm or 27.5”. Sleeve length armpit to bottom of knitted cuff is 64cm or 25”.

From the measurements it doesn’t sound all that big .
Chest 25.5 inches
Length 27 inches
What’s the shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the upper back?

I’ve been corresponding with the owner and It’s 22” across the shoulders. That’s about an inch to small for me. 23” is the edge of comfortable wearability while 24” is perfect. So as much as it pains me to pass on it, I reluctantly did so.

That's a real shame - this one seemed like it could be a great option for you.

It’s not as big as it sounds at a size 52 .

Yeah the measurements are frustratingly close to what I need. But my broad shoulders have always made finding a good fitting A2 difficult.

Five bloody quid???? For a bleeding ELC? Stone the crows. There’s still hope.
Not all charity shops know what they’re selling.

Find out who where executive producers and you'll find out who owned the jacket. Not of Pearl Harbor as this jacket is 8 years after that, but of SOME movie.
