To return or not to return?

Got this Driggs leather jacket from B Jackson delivered today.

I really like it but the sleeves are definitely short. But since I like it I don’t want to return it - the next size up would just be too wide for me.

What do yall think?

Just googled it to see what it was since I’ve never heard of the brand. I was expecting to find a price of no more than 200 since it looks quite cheap and bad pattern. I was surprised that it cost almost 500 new. That only strengthens the case to return it. Get a maverick from Vanson for only 60 more dollars and you’ll get a 1000 % increase in quality.

As other posters noted, the fit is not in your favor regardless of the sleeve length.

If you are set on a Type-III jacket, you might consider a Vanson Maverick in their Roma leather. Torfjord and I (and some others I think) have one in the Brandy Roma. The leather is super nice and the fit is great. The price is a bit higher than yours, but Vanson jackets are known for quality/durability. I've attached an image of mine - please note the color is not as vibrant, more brownish than red. There are some images of Torfjord wearing his Brandy Maverick on this forum which are more realistic in color than my image. Vanson offers the Maverick (Roma) in Brandy (image), Granite and Rust. The jacket is worth every penny.
