Has anyone else had an issue with the sleeves on the tru spec being too short? I ordered a medium long and every other part of the suit fits perfectly but the sleeves are about two or three inches too short. I e mailed tru spec and they agreed that the sleeves don’t meet MIL-SPEC standards of a 23" sleeve inseam they suggested that I just return it for a large which for obvious reasons won’t work because it will be too large on me. On a good note the person I spoke to said that because of my e mails they claim they will be correcting the problem in the future. So to my fellow tall skinny ghostbuster you’re welcome. Unfortunately this seems to leave me out of luck. Has anyone else had an issue with sleeve length on the tru spec? ---

Yes. Mine seem a little too short as well. But I looked at some stills from the movie, and it would appear that they look a little short on the actors as well. ---

Mine were short as well, ended up grabbing a Nomex suit on eBay for $40. The sleeves are perfect ---

I too have experienced this with my Tru Spec, but I’ve heard its a common thing with them ---

Yeah the sleeves were short on mine as well, I already had a nomex suit and picked up the tru spec to see whether I liked it better but the sleeves were way to short. I recommend nomex ---

100% agree sleeves are too short. Mine fits great otherwise. I usually just roll up the sleeves a bit more that way it looks on purpose or I guess you could just wear gloves. ---

My sleeves on my tru-spec [flight suit](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/uniform) are a little short on me.
