Do raglan sleeves look bad on someone with sloping shoulders? Referring specifically to whether the Kaptain Sunshine traveler coat might not work for me - are there body types that this silhouette wouldn’t work for?

No. Raglan sleeves probably look marginally better on someone with slipping shoulders vs someone with very straight shoulders.

the only body types a coat like that wouldn’t work for, is one where the proportions just don’t look right. If you’re short and wide chested, the size that works well for your chest might look too long... that kinda stuff

I have wide, sloping shoulders. I love raglans on both coats and sweaters. It’s just a different vibe. Makes the coat feel like it hangs more freely from your shoulders.

Well, in this picture, I was trying to gauge my sleeve length, and whether it is too short or too long or just right - ultimately, it looks adequate to my eyes. Actually ended up going as Sherlock Holmes (with my dog, Sherlock Bones), so this coat would have worked better than the costume I wore. (And I am strongly considering making Sherlock Holmes my one-costume).

This one is really special, for a very special anniversary with a super special partner. We’re so happy they played along with our idea. Only 10 pieces ever produced of each style so we thought a random draw would be the fairest way to do this
