It is really really tight though- today I tried it on and honestly it felt like it was digging into my arms... will this stretch out over time?

Based on the way its fitting you, I'd say wear it regularly and it will eventually stretch enough to look less tight. Don't manual stretch it though!

I got it today and it actually fits great over my stomach and (small) boobs. It's really tight in the upper arms and back- kind of feels like I'm wearing compression bands. But it does fit, just more tightly than I would like...

+1 leather jackets are not made to be stretched.

I can't return it- it's non refundable. (Didn't know this until the purchase was shipped, unfortunately)

I could sell it on eBay for a grand or so but I am really hoping this fits.

Stretching will ruin it. Return the jacket and buy something in your size.

Why did you buy it too small?

I just bought a leather jacket, seriously on sale ($600 marked down from $1600) and I had to buy it a size or two down from what I would normally get. Is there any way to stretch it out?
