Why not post a few pics of both the small and medium sizes?

So, I'm looking for a more fitted/slim fit peacoat. I bought a Uniqlo once recently and like it, but it's a bit loose and baggy. I'd like to stay under $100 if possible. Any suggestions?

I want a peacoat in a non-navy color. Either grey/tan/khaki, or like a deep purple. Any suggestions for brands?

Not sure what you mean. Read the peacoat dating guide which is linked in my signature line. There is a section on sizing that tells how to measure the p2p.

I mean, if I measure a p2p of 21 inches, does that mean that it will fit a 38 inch chest or a 40 inch chest.

 

21+21=42 (subtract 2) and you get 40

21+21=42 (subtract 4) and you get 38

 

i hope that is clear, I was just unsure, since different sources have told me conflicting information.

It is now clear. The short answer is to read the guide, then you won't have to ask these questions. And you might learn something more than the answer to the question you asked. The shorter answer is 40--for pea coats. PC.

Does anyone have any advice on swapping out buttons on a peacoat? Theres nothing wrong with my current buttons but I'd like a different color icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif

 

 

In case this info is needed...

 

I have a ralph lauren academy peacoat. 

Color: navy

buttons: navy/anchor

 

Is it a big deal to have a tailor or something to swap the buttons out? $$? Thanks for the help guys

It's not a big deal. Read a few pages back for tips.

It's 30.5" from collar to bottom i think. I'm a 5'6" skinny build. Kind of feel like the length and sleeves are too long, deciding on getting it tailored. 







You're not going to be able to shorten it without it looking weird because the bottom row of buttons will be too close to the hem. The arms also look kinda big.

Small fits MUCH better. the sleeves are still a bit long, and it's a little tight across the hip (see the flaring vent), but it's much better.
