I received my jacket but the sleeve length is too short.Updated a year ago

We want the sleeve of the jacket to end right at your wrist bone so you have a half inch of dress shirt showing beyond the sleeve of the jacket when your arms are down by your sides. This looks best in photos and is a more fitted, updated look. If you need just a bit of extra length, you can have the sleeves let out a 1/2" or so. There is enough seam allowance to have them lengthened a bit. This way, the length in the body of the jacket is still appropriate.
