Harrington or other light jacket?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I am in the market for a good quality light jacket. Originally I was dead set on a G9 or G4 slim-fit Barracuda, but after corresponding with them and O'Connells clothing, it would seem there is no way to get a decent slim fit with the sleeve length I need. For reference, I am 6' 4" tall, 44" chest, and a 37" sleeve. I tried looking at both the Merc and Fred Perry jackets and I saw a post with a taller gentlemen around my height who fit into the Merc XL. After hunting through the boards, I have found it difficult to find the sizing myself.

My question for the board is: Do any of the taller folks have experience with the Harrington-style jackets and managed to get them to fit properly? Also, does anyone have perhaps an alternate suggestion that they think would fit my proportions and look nice. I don't mind paying for a quality jacket within reason. Ideally it would be cotton with some rain resistance.

 I like my nylon, fleece-lined Patagonia Isthmus Parka. Slim fitting and plenty warm when zipped up and the storm flap is snapped shut. Maybe a tad too warm but right now I feel like my body heat is trapped and I remain comfortable.

this jacket is rather slim and has longer arms than baracuta harringtons
