: Two questions on sizing:

: Anybody have any idea how much more it will cost me to get a size 38 jacket, but with longer sleeves [40 inches] and a longer torso [forgot how long, but you can tell that it's looong from the sleeves]? I filled out their measurement worksheet last night, and yes, I quadruple-checked my measurements; I really am that lanky! :) I'm concerned that since these will have to be long continuous pieces of leather that it will be mucho expensive...

: Also, to those who own other Flight Suits jackets, should one order a few sizes larger to obtain that relaxed "Indy fit"?

: Thanks to all.

: Aaron the lankster.

I have not made a purchase from FS that until last week but I know a lot of people in the A-2 forum that have and they all are very impressed by their customer service and the lengths that FS went to make them happy. I would imagine that it would be a good idea to get someone to take your measurements (my local tailor does it in about 2 minutes for me) and give them to FS so they have a reference to go by.
I have not heard about there sizes running large or small. I son't know how long delivery time will be on these jackets but their military jacket are very quick. I hope everyone here has as good experiences as the A-2 forum members have had as I have not heard one complaint about them. If you post these questions on the A-2 forum I am sure you will get your questions answered first hand.
