If the "design length" is 27" but it is actually shorter than it may work.
Do any of you guys know what Wings' return policy is like, should I decide to try one of these?

Re: Show us your US Wings Antique COW Hero jackets
I'm a little confused here. I've seen where several people have posted that their smalls have a back length of about 26" or a little less, but I just got an e-mail from USW saying that the XS had a back length of 27". Way too long for an Indy jacket, IMO, and definitely too long for me to ...
