Yes.

If you are really in love with your Shinki aviator, you can get it shortened. I've done it.

And a more recent job, this trucker is a modern American size Large, and is a bit long for me, so I had it shortened both torso and sleeves,

You can probably have the shortening done by Schott's repair department as they know their jackets best. Shorten an inch in the torso and inch in the sleeve should do the trick and you'll have the same fit as your Buco, with a bit room to layer if needed, but also ok with a single layer like my trucker. Probably about 250 dollars for the whole job.
Canuck, is that trucker the Johnson's in thick goat? I love that jacket.
