They were leaving and it was raining outside so he turned his jacket inside out but elaine's dad didnt want to be seen walking with a man wearing a pink and white striped jacket so he had to wear it with the suede facing outside and it ruined it. Excuse the grammar, its late...

Hey ToJ, very satisfied with the DR I ordered a bit ago, but now that you guys have finished making the S/S stuff, perhaps it's time to look into an update on the ToJ peacoat, or any winter coat that suits shorter people? I get the feeling that a chesterfield would make me look like I'm miniature, and I think you guys ceased production of the peacoat.

Drew, could you enlighten us on some of the tangible differences between calf split suede and lamb suede?

Short guys have no issues with long chesterfields in general so I'm confused.

Someone asked for pics with the collar up, they're still mirror pics so not great but thought I would supply - Also just gave my Spurrs their first wash, 8 months in.

who cares what an authentic baseball jacket looks like? I thought the whole point of toj was to swag out everything, hence the better material and cut vs your typical piece/replica and "baggy" fit

bb jacket is straight money (blue and green are crazy)

Because weather forecast is not 100% accurate.

Mission statement of ToJ is to (I believe) provide a modern spin on classic pieces at outrageously attractive prices.

It's been about 5 weeks since I bought an item from Drew and the gang so considered this baseball jacket copped once I get home.

AR, it looks good, man.

No one will notice the sleeves' width at all! You can also use the extra room to layer a light sweater under the DR too.

IMO a chesterfield would look better than a peacoat on short people.

Peacoats of any form are ruined for me because all of the jcrew douchebags with aviators and peacoats running around. Chesterfield's are dope. I'd also like to see a toj toggle.

IIRC all suede is split leather. Calf suede is more vibrant, lamb suede is softer.

Drew also said lamb suede is thinner, too thin and that is why it isn't an option for the 2011 DR & collared moto. Another quick question, if the solid trim loses swag, can we pick a different colors for the trim similar to the option with the varsity?

Must just be me then, I feel like a gnome when I wear any form of long coat.

I'm short too but I've found that either long coats (+boots helps here) or short cropped jackets can work well. Anything in that middle-length range seems to make me look shorter.
