The most important points in a well-fitting jacket


The basis of your jacket comes down to 4 points that are most important for a well-fitting jacket:

1. Whether the collar of the jacket fits properly on the neck or not.
2. That the shoulder of the jacket fits properly on your shoulder.
3. That the jacket follows the curve of the back well.
