2024 Beta AR jacket sleeve length super long
I recently ordered a 2024 beta AR to replace a Theta AR that I have been wearing for the past 17 seasons.
My previous jacket was size small and fit well so I ordered the same size this time as both are regular fit. The sizing guide says that for 2024 the sizing has changed a bit. On size small, sleeve length went from 84 cm to 83 cm making them slightly shorter.
I happily ordered another small. When the jacket arrived, the sleeves went almost 6 inches past my fingertips. The fit guide states arm length is measured from the centre back of neck over the shoulder across the elbow down to the wrist. I measured this to be 96 cm on my 2024 beta AR. Fit guide says 83cm.
Of course I am returning it, but I’m curious if this is a defect or if I’m making a mistake this would be helpful to know as I order a new size.
Anybody have a similar experience?
