aviator is too small for sure, looks like you're wearing your sister's jacket.

also the khaki bedford you posted earlier is definitely SS but is from a pretty old season (probably pre 2011?) and i know what you mean about the fit being boxy and the color a little boring. i had the same one and sold it. the GOAT khaki colored bedford is the duck canvas one.

the NN leather is sick, please keep it.

I think this first fit would be perfect with some white sneakers or the navy EG x Vans slips.
I have a pair of needles ghillie sneakers in off white... also, I don't like that the pants don't go with everything lol... they are very fickle.

I think the leather would work for someone that is usually an extra small. It is slightly too tight for me in the shoulder and pit area.

By the way it fits perfectly in the shoulders, chest, sleeves. It's just cropped, after looking up pictures of styling, I think it's supposed to be very cropped.

I sized up without hesitation. I'm normally Medium im all EG outerwear, and sizing up was an easy decision to to avoid wearing a jacket with short arms.

but the arms fit perfectly, it's just the torso which is cropped. I spoke with iicky over at independence-chicago, and he was telling me that was the design of this jacket. It's reminiscent to 1940's aviator jackets.

Can you zip it?

it looks fine enough, and it sounds like you really like it! If that's the case and you'll wear it, keep it and keep wearing it!

yes everywhere it fits perfectly and nice and roomy, besides the length of the jacket.
