Can someone point me to some pictures of the proper fit of an A-2's sleeve length?
I have a new Schott 184SM and the sleeve length seems exactly perfect, but I'm wondering if the sleeves will shorten as the leather breaks in and creases around the elbows? I know it's not an actual A-2, but a similar pattern. It's their naked cowhide, so I don't know how much, if any shrinkage/shortening I should expect on the sleeves?
I'm thinking I may should get the long version and have the sleeves be an inch too long and expect that they will shorten to the right size over the next year?
Thanks for any help and advice.
