Armpit issue Al/SB biker jacket

[Poul]

Well folks this is my leather jacket that I was buying almost year ago and there is a problem with that jacket
The moment that when I raise my arms the whole jacket goes up something like batwing effect guys can you tell me what going on where is the problem?
Maybe does anybody have an idea?
Here is a picture

Yeah, sometimes they do that. It really depends on how the maker has handled the arm attachment to the body (sleeve diameter/ armsyc/ low cut holes/gussets/ footballs/ etc.). Thank goodness we don’t walk around with our arms out like that.

O yeah Handy ...so you wanna say that technically the armhole is just too low or too big ? and thats why whole jacket goes up?

The problem is you lifting your arms that way and expecting the jacket not to go up...
If i lift my arms above my head every single jacket i own will lift to some extent, as @handymike said, it is dependent on design but IMO it is pretty much impossible to completely get rid of it.

Aero's (and AL since they are the same patterns) IMO ride more than others since they have on average wider pit to pit, lower and wider arm holes than other brands.

Ok thank you Carlos well ..I don't walk around with my arms straight out but driving a car or simply reaching for one of the chest pockets all proved troublesome and its really flustraiting maybe Aero Board racer will fit me much better I heard that the sleeve head and armhole is really high

I agree with Carlos that almost every jacket does this to some extent. In my experience the G-1 style is probably least prone to this problem and I think that is because of the underarm footballs and the flexibility of goatskin.
I also agree with handymike that this is not really a problem unless one is constantly reaching out above their head, as if to put something on a high shelf.

thanks el Marro like I said earlier I'm thinking about to order a Aero Board racer size34 maybe this jacket will fit my type of body cause my chest is 34 waist 31.4 and weigth around 117 lbs

I had a Lost Worlds ANJ-4 that was so stiff that talking on my mobile phone was an arm workout! As El Marro said go with goatskin it's probably the most flexible leather, and durable as well.

Goatskin is nice I heard that is not so stiff like vicenza (which is great)
Goatskin form Aero is veg or chrome tanned?
i must carefully rethinking ...
