Hi, i thought of that but as an expensive jacket i would prefer a " horsey tailor" and i am assuming showing selection etc don't take jackets back for alternations .

Personally I would rather it be fitted on the wearer than sent away mail order, I used to work for Austin Reed in the saddlery dept, the bespoke taylors used to come to do the alterations, for the length the wearer could sit on a saddle so that the effect could be seen
good luck
