EDIT: actually, I just looked back at the sale post. The SE version was a 38 and labeled as a Medium. It was 21.75 inches P2P, 18.75 in shoulders, and slightly over 25 inches in length.
Thanks for that. I'm imagining the sleeve length was an issue on the mediums for you as well. The difference between you and me is I'm about 176cm. I'm a bit torn here. I think I'd rather it look like it fits well in the body and shoulders and be one or two cm short in the sleeve. Then again I'm inexperienced with leather jackets.
Either way, I'm going to sit on this for a while unless there is some massive markdown that forces my hand.
