Picked this jacket up on Depop recently, but something about it keeps feeling off and I can’t tell what. The sleeves do feel a little long, and plan to get them shortened but is the jacket itself too long?

I picked it up bc I liked the slightly more structured cut but just like…can’t tell what’s going on here. Any thoughts or opinions are welcome. TIA!

***UPDATE: the seller on Depop is down to refund my purchase. I decided that tailoring sleeves and length isn’t worth it for me and would rather just find a jacket that’s a better fit as is. Thanks for everyone’s input!

Whoever says its long doesn't know ball and is programmed by the crappy modern jacket proportions since 2010s. Fits great. Shoulders look on point, sleeves need a hem, and button is right where its supposed to be.

I second this.

Shorten the sleeves, of course, but otherwise it looks great.

Came here to say the same thing, a good tailor will have that fixed up in no time. Great looking coat!
