Lapel notches on this Harris Tweed

It's not that low, in my opinion. As long as you fill out the jacket and it fits you well you should be OK. But if you're skinny and this barely fits/looks big on you, it would be worth passing.

The gorge of the notch isn't that bad, but it seems that the jacket is a tad short, if I'm not mistaken?

Thanks. I also noticed it was a bit short but not so much so that it bothers me (particularly since it is such a heavy material).

Thanks for all the opinions.

Here are the pictures of me actually wearing the jacket that were requested earlier.



That looks fine. I wouldn't alter it.
