X-post from the Eidos thread:
So I've received a few PMs and requests for frontal pics of the Navy casentino single breast coat from NMWA. Had some time this morning and made my girlfriend snap some before I headed out (to my tailor, to get the sleeves finished, actually). This is a bit more casual of an outfit than I'd usually wear with this coat but it shows the shape well. Excuse the poor lighting - we were going to take some pics outside but the heavy winds weren't cooperating.
Also worth noting I'm keeping it in the family by wearing my Eidos X Christian Kimber smoke suede Capa derbies! They've become my go-to casual shoes.
For reference I'm 5'11 and ~195 lbs with a 10" drop. I wear a 54R in Eidos suits and sportcoats and I went with the 52 coat because the body/waist in the 54 would've been a bit too baggy on me. Wearing a suit underneath this coat is maybe a pinch more snug than ideal, but overall I'm extremely happy with it and definitely happier than if I had gone with the 54.
This first pic is with the middle button (out of three) done. It's how I wear it most often.

Bottom button done only. I like wearing it like this when I wear a suit+tie as it lets you show a nice amount of both.
