M.J Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Hi ya Guys and Girls, I have a trooper waiting for approval, and was told his flak vest sleeves are too long, he is short lad. Unsure I looked at others on the forum and I couldn't see much difference. So you could you give me a hand tell me how much this sleeves need to be taken up. Please note in the photo his right bell is stuck on up.. so go by his left sleeve Cheers ..and thank you for looking ps yeah we know about the strips on the boots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stasz Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 A good rule of thumb is "just past" the bottom of the shoulder bell... No more than an inch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikerScout007 Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 A good rule of thumb is "just past" the bottom of the shoulder bell... No more than an inch Yup Those sleeves could easily lose an inch in length. It's not a big deal, just roll them up inside the sleeve and stitch it. Easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4505Marcel Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 You could also loose a tiny bit of the flare also, to get the sleeves a little bit more fitted. Again an easy inside out stitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustangman3000 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 If you go by this photo I'd say they're close to screen accurate. I do agree that they need to be tightened up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
