This sport coat and the linen one with three patch pockets look best on you, IMO. Good job, why don't you try 3 button coat?

This one is my favorite so far, and feel its the best fit on me. As far as three buttons, I just think I'm too short, only 5'9".

It definitely is, at least on the pictures. As for 3 button, it might actually elongate your torso, 3 to 2.5 roll might work just fine. I think all your stuff is 3 to 2 roll.

More 'Trad'?

Definitely not among exceptionally well-dressed people. One student was in a purple suit - I hurt him.

Took the photo as it was, but the whole night I was pulling on my shirt to show a bit of cuff. Not sure if your monitor is calibrated, but my monitor shows a very good representation of the colour.

Sorry sir, burning them now.

Thanks for the advice! Hopefully I will find some sense of style.

Upon arriving home, I discovered that the wind had blown leaves from the neighbor's lawn onto mine. Off with the suit and tie....
First wearing of the Bean Norwegian in a desperate attempt to finish raking the lawn before the snow comes.

If you can't tell, I am exceedingly jealous of your kick-ass herringbone overcoat. What a great colour, too.
