Default ? for tall guys

I have been to all 5 of the motorcycle stores I know in the area looking for a jacket that fits properly. I can't find anything. I am 6'3" with even longer arms, I weigh about 200 lbs with an athletic build. Everything i try on has either way too short of arms, or way too much extra around the chest area. Can anyone point me in a direction as far as a brand or some specific jackets to think about? I will take any advice, cause I am strugglin. Also someone was telling me there is a dutch brand that tends to have sizes that better fit taller people, but I don't know what brand that is, anyone know what that would have been?
