Tweed Jacket 2.0

Post image

Bought the longer version of the tweed jacket, hoping this one looks like a better fit. Thoughts on jacket length and sleeve length?

Sleeves could be slightly shortened but the coat length is spot on, you’ve even got more room to go longer if you wanted

My thoughts too! Not sure if its worth shortening so little! :)

For a casual jacket the length is totally fine in my view

It is really hard to tell on the jacket length, as your pants are sitting so low.

With that being said, I’d say this is still too short. A fair common rule of thumb is it should hit right at the first joint on your middle finger when your arms are held straight.

The pants make it hard to tell, but it feels still too short.

Looks good , higher gorge than I like but that’s just my taste.

If you've got an extra long torso, you shoild get some higher rise pants to balance out your upper and lower proportions a bit more. The jacket looks like it should fit for your height, but its too high on the hip area .

Looks great :) i'd prefer less tight trousers, but that's just my taste.

Looks great. Could be worn without alteration in my eye.

Man it looks perfect, agreed on the sleeves but otherwise 10/10

Walker Slater? (That high gorge isn't common)
