SCO's are non adjustable pre-purchase (not by our choice, eBay thing), so if you buy it just put the SF thing in the notes and we can refund it post purchase.

Done and done

Well, that was kind of unexpected today. Mmm.

Someone snipped me on the Vanson jacket. $469.69 wasn't enough.

I blame @SpooPoker because he said the auction ended at 6:30 but it ended at 7:17. Sad.

What was the Vanson jacket?

It was a double rider in denim.

I got one of Bruce's jackets last time so I am definitely looking at a couple items.

But here's the minor twist. I got this boy (no longer listed on ebay but I saved the deets): "The Bruce Boyer Collection : Cheo Bespoke Brn Flecked Tick Weave Tweed Jacket #1"

Your measurements vs mine:

Tweed jacket listed (measured by me) Pit to pit 20.5 (20.5) Sleeves from shoulder seam 24 (22.25) Shoulder seams across front 15.5 (16.25) Across Waist 19.5 (19.5) Length from collar 30 (29.75)

Two of the items I am looking at are listed as follows:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/364185164397 Pit to pit 21 Sleeves from shoulder seam 24 Shoulder seams across front 16.75 Across Waist 19.75 Length from collar 29.5

and

https://www.ebay.com/itm/364185164224 Jacket Pit to pit 20 Sleeves from shoulder seam 24 Shoulder seams across front 16.5 Across Waist 19 Length from collar 29.5

It looks like Bruce's jackets match up much closer to my measurements of the jacket I got in November - notably, the shoulders being ~16.25-16.75. But your measurements still put the sleeves at 24 inches. Given that these are working cuffs, it's basically not worth it for me to buy a jacket and get sleeves shortened ~2 inches at the shoulder, because of the cost (and risk.) But if they are in fact closer to 22 inches than 24 ... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ surely his jackets would all have sleeves that end at around the same place down his arms? I could put in some serious bids with the assumption that it'll work out, but it'll be a big annoyance for me to send 'em right back to you if your measurements are 100% correct and my assumption is wrong.

I feel like this comment should have a photo attached of the previous jacket's sleeves next to a measuring tape to prove I'm not a crazy person. mumbles to self

Editing to sound a bit less crazy. The jacket referenced is at the tailor's shop getting a bit narrower to fit me better, hence no photo. Anyways. My three bespoke jackets have the following sleeve length measurements: 22.25, 22.5, 22. They fit great. Well balanced against the shirts (from the same tailor.) The tweed jacket also fits great in terms of sleeve length, perfectly with no need to change it. And measures the same, 22.25. On the flip side, jackets I've got (from LuxeSwap) marked 24" or 25" were always obviously 2-3" too long and needed tailoring -- except Bruce's jacket that I got, lucky me!
