I just went and tried a new hacking Jacket on and one size is a little too tight over the bust but fits nicely on my waist but the next size up is better over the bust but looks like a sack on the rest of me (which is why I need a new one). Any recommendations or are they easy to get altered? - although the bigger one looked huge on my shoulder too!
 
Alexander James - Mine is semi M2M - worth every penny. It was my 18th birthday present, and I'm still wearing it loads 10 years on, and expect to wear it for another 10 years!
 
This is the story of my life( and the same with non horsey clothes). I would love to have a made to measure jacket one day. Currently I have a Tagg hacking jacket which fits surprisingly well in all the right places.Big enough over the boobs and small enough on the waist, it's almost flattering. Might be worth a look.

Definitely wear your riding bra when you try the jackets on! :)

I am a 26 waist and 34EE so anything fitted is a total nightmare- I bought a jacket that fitted my boobs and wasn't hanging off my shoulders and then took it to a local lady who fits everyone's hunting jackets and she nipped the waist in for me for £20 :)

It took me about 2 years to find the right jacket but it was worth is as jacket wasn't extortionate, looks M2M and I love it.
 
I'm a 32G and a UK size 8 to 10 everywhere else! my AJ tweed is actualy second hand and I love it to bits it fits beautifully!
