    Black Fleece Grey Wool Classic Jacket: Worn as a sport coat? What kind of buttons?

    From what I have read, TB likes to design his jacket shorter than contemporary jackets. The jacket is long enough to cover my back side so no problem there. I am 5'5 and 140 pounds.

    When you wrote that, make sure the waist fit is spot on, do you mean that the bottom of the jacket should be close to my hip and thigh? If not, please explain. Thank you.
