Yeah, I’m reasonably sure I have pretty standard limb and torso length for my height

Tailoring Brands for Short Men
I can certainly take pictures of the jackets I own. I’m 5’3; the length of my collar to the ground with shoes on is 56 inches, divided by two is 28. I don’t know if that’s a reasonable way for determining length tho, that’s what I read on someone’s recommendation here.

Tailoring Brands for Short Men
To qualify my actual problem, the ideal jacket length for me is about 28-28.5 inches, and most 40s seem to be longer than that. I would definitely consider MTO or MTM but want to see if there’s any good RTW options I don’t know about yet!

Ok, so in this case I would want the size that corresponds to a waist measurement of ~31?

Question about sizing: if my waist is X inches in circumference, and jeans at X size have a waist measurement lower than X, how does that work out if the size of the jeans matches the waist? Example: im looking at Samurai’s 710 Ecru jeans. My waist is about 31 inches. The 31 jeans measure 30.7 around the waist. So if one buys true to size… then the garment size is smaller than the person’s waist? I feel like I’m misunderstanding something here. Can anyone help me understand?

I’m just attracted to the romance of it hehe. I’m not American tho so I don’t feel any kind of heritage vis a vis the Polo Coat as a Thing. I’m telling myself it’s an Ulster instead. I will avoid wearing it and then probably get the camel one to compare if it comes out during my return window tho.

Yeah that’s fair! I’m also a bit skeptical of the unknown quality of the camel hair and I have no basis on which to judge it. Whereas I trust what seems like a strong consensus that their wool is woven by reputable mills that produce high quality cloth

Yeah, you’re probably right. I’m just worried that if I wait and wait it won’t exist. I’m also slightly kinda suspicious about a camel coat less than 1K CAD given there isn’t really anything else on the market at that price that I’m aware of

On the other hand I guess it’s nice that they do show previews at all in the first place

That’s frustrating. I’m trying to decide if I should keep the heathered grey polo coat I ordered or wait for the camel one to release

Anyone know when the items in their “fall preview” section are likely to be released?
