New sport coat just arrived. Sorry for the out of focus pic.

Thoughts? Probably would not cuff the jeans IRL, but this pair is still stiff and wasn't sitting well. Also, a bit hard to tell, but belt (1.5") seems too chunky to me. Probably should have one more button undone on the shirt.

dcg - i think it looks great. but i would uncuff the jeans and wear a pair that was hemmed to be worn unstacked with a more dress outfit like you are wearing.

SC is fantastic.

Looks good to me, buddy. Hard to tell without more pics, but the coat seems to fit you well OTR.

Thanks Sammy. I think that once the jeans soften up a bit, they'll be ok at this length. I don't like my denim to be hemmed too short.
And yes, here is my public acknowledgement that Rambo was correct to badger me to buy the SC.

It's like to ''mixy'' of the diffrent colors you mean?


well you've got a mustard sweater, grey pants, and chocolate suede shoes. thats just not a great color combo. the overall look though (sweater/pants/chukkas) is nice.

Thanks man. Is RLBL; fits me much better OTR than anything else I've found. I'm often between a regular and long in body length, so a 40L works for me, as it's shorter than most longs. The high armholes and slim sleeves also work well for me. If I could change one thing, I'd maybe make the shoulders slightly narrower, and reduce the padding. Also make the lapels a bit wider, but now I am nitpicking.

my plesh, my sechsay broshephine. good luck with the jeans, a nice little break/stack and unrolled would be great. i did not mean to hem to dress pants length, i dont like jeans to fall that way either.
