Since I'm always on the troll for a good deal, I've acquired a fair number of riding jackets over the years. I think I have 5 stowed away in various places around the house, though I really only use 2 of them -- a TourMaster Transition 4 for cooler weather, and a Sliders All Season 2 mesh jacket for the warm months.
Most of my jackets, with the exception of the Sliders, are the longer, ADV-styled design. And they all come with some sort of integrated waist belt. Something I started noticing this riding season is that, when I wear a jacket that seems to fit me correctly in a standing position, I get on the bike and discover the 'waist' belt tends to be up around my chest.
Is this right? I'm not a tall guy (5'10" on my better days) and I'm already wearing size L jackets. I'm afraid going up in size is going to result in jackets that are too big in other areas.
