i'm a lanky 6'1" with long arms and am looking for longer slim jackets to match my body type... to get the length i want in, say, burton jackets or special blend jackets, i have to sacrifice a wide boxy fit... are there any companies out there who make their jackets long in the sleeves and body, but are still slim enough to not look like i'm in a potato sack?

companies i already know to make slim long style stuff:

holden

not bonfire

uhh that's it... so any suggestions would be appreciated




YEAH RIGHT!

i believe volcom and dc make long fit stuff
Etiquette? Is that some sort of toilet paper?

my 2 cents about holden jackets...

i'm 6'2", 140lbs and its usually a female dog trying to find anything that fits well. I have the holden cfm in a size M (could prolly fit a S if I didnt want to layer as much) and it fits perfectly for boarding or anything else really.

I'm a long-armed 6'1" or 6'2" as well.  Sessions' Summit Fit stuff fit me pretty normally (size L), and the sleeve length was still good.  If possible, get the dimensions for the past jackets you had, namely sleeve length and chest (and body length, if available), and cross-reference potential jackets if you still can't find what you want.
