Recently added to the collection of this stunning Willis and Geiger, the measurements and sensations it fits perfectly,stunning skin. BUT there's one problem,I don't know what it is...or is it a mistake in the pattern. Appears a fold over collar if the collar is raised it is particularly noticeable.Any thoughts guys? can a tailor solve this problem?

IT'S PERFECT
Gone through a load this weekend, just trying on to see if they all still fit but today it is down to Eastman B3 which I sat scrunched up watching tv while wearing. So super warm I usually just doze off and miss what I was watching.
Was wearing today(Sunday) but taken off as to bulky for my needs today and switched to my 25 year old ANJ4 to fix the bike as it's not a too greasy and oily job. I don't purposely wreck my jackets but do like to work in them as if back in the days when they were just Army Surplus cast offs

Could be the lining; if the lining is short/small through repair for example it can cause this effect around the collar and/or also at the hem - looking at the back pic it seems like the leather is maybe being pulled up at the hem.

By the way,I hadn't thought of that..by measurements he had to sit perfectly,but that something was wrong...

If you lay the jacket flat on it’s back and smooth the lining and leather together at the collar area, then work down to the hem, you might see the hem curl up

I have the same jacket
I’d like to hear about the measurements of your jacket and your height/weight. I’m considering swapping mine out for a size smaller. Perfect fit with my heaviest sweathers. A little big otherwise.

How about "What jacket did you dream about last night?"
Well, more of a nightmare. In the dream, I bid $381.00 as a Best Offer on the 'bay but must have inadvertently entered $3810.00...the seller accepted the price of course. The rest of the dream was a blur...
