Arlen Ness Jacket?
 
Have just bought my first new Arlen Ness jacket. Chest is tight which I believe is the right way to size a new leather jacket but when I sit down in it the jacket rides up so that the neck is too high. Have I bought the wrong size or is this normal and the jacket will stretch or have I bought the wrong size or style of jacket?

Thanks

The pad in the back pushes the jacket up on mine, but only when I sit on a chair. I don't really sit on my bike, just rest my bum between sliding off.
I've had to replace the zip on my jacket, wasn't the beefiest grade.

They're designed to fit you only on the bike. Some 1-piece leathers are hard to even stand up in!

Other than it riding up your back a bit on the bike is fine, I've been trying to wear it in around the house and if I nip out and this is when it feels strange so looks like it may just bt the norm

Thanks
