not sure if srs. anyway, you'll have better luck if you try over on the men's clothing side of the forum. this is streetwear and denim.

The low angle exaggerates the shortness of the jacket.

But regardless, the length looks fine for the trim look he's going for. No need to prescribe the same set of rules for every single suit whether or not it works for the aesthetic.

Seriously, "jackets should drape to your knuckles." Come on now.

Well, when the poster states that he wants it to be longer, I can only assume he's going for a more classic business suit look. It looks decent with the cut of the suit, but if he's looking to make changes on future purchases, that's what I would look to change.

Knuckles is never right though. Unless you're going Yohji, in which case it's right.

found a last remaining Rick Owens MA-1 rip-off at H&M the other day. Managed to finagle 10% off because someone had spilled some shit on it (but it cleaned up well). pretty happy with it

The pleather version, right? My brother has it and it doesn't look that bad.

H&M had a 40% off a single item from Monday through today via email, which most cashiers wouldn't even check.

pretty sure he meant that the bottom of the jacket should come to the knuckles, not the sleeves. sort of like the rule about being able to cup the bottom of the jacket in your fingers
