My "I'm too tall for my RTW" closet purge continues with a lovely Corneliani green sport coat. I bought this on discount after falling in love with the cloth and ignoring that I'm nowhere near the right height for this. If I could find the cloth, it would be off to my bespoke tailor with the directive "please turn this around quickly."
This is a typically cut Corneliani sport coat with a slightly structured shoulder, higher arm hole, and trim waist. There is a tiny bit of wear at the edge of the sleeves, but you're most likely going to need to shorten the sleeves to begin with as I have long arms and desperately tried to make this work.
It has been brushed after each wear and hung on a Mainetti contoured shoulder hanger.
The closeup is the best representation of cloth color. I had a bit of aperture fussiness. I wore this with denim, light grey trousers, off-white trousers, or khaki trousers.
Measurements
Shoulder: 18.5”
BOC: 29.5”
Sleeve: 26.5" (not functional buttons)
P2P: 20”
Waist: 19”
