My Schott 519 in Brown – Thoughts, Fit, and My Growing Collection

[Leather&Fit]

That gives even more reason to worry
I'd highly recommend buying something that fits you rather than butchering an existing jacket via tailoring.
But I honestly hope it works out well for you! Looking forward to seeing the updated fit.
Either way - thank you for your contribution to the forum!

Thanks for your perspective — I’ll definitely share an updated video once the jacket comes back from the tailor. I’m genuinely curious myself to see how the changes affect the fit.

Since most of my jackets in size L fit very well, I assumed the same would apply here. Turns out the 519 fits quite differently, which actually makes this post more valuable for others considering this model.

I'm not trying to sell anything or push a look — just sharing honest impressions to help others make better-informed choices. If my experience helps someone avoid a similar misstep, that's a win in my book.

Appreciate the exchange and the constructive input.
