i thought this jacket looked pretty nice, but im starting to think it looks a little big and those two lower pocket flaps are unsightly. looking for something along the lines of a mix between a peacoat and a jacket (i like the collar on that one above, cause i feel like a pea coat might be as manly a look as i am going for)

preferably also something a little more fitted as im pretty skinny. looking to spend less than 300$.

im 5'11" and 143lbs if that helps.

Why is it you don't want a regular peacoat?

The upper and lower parts look strangely unbalanced.

Those chest slits look like where you put in your breast implants.

Does this have a typo? And I don't really see what this jacket has in common with a pea coat? The jacket's really sack-fitting on that mannequin, but presumably you could size way down. Mack's right, in that the lower pockets are quite large - they would look better with breast pockets, but they're still awfully big. Have you considered field jackets?

the collar on the above jacket is the same style as ones on most peacoats. i havent looked at field jackets although someone recommended the cockpit class a sporting jacket.

The Cockpit coat is infinitely cooler.

Hey wicz, you should check out the archives of the Streetwear forum, and if you don't find what you're looking for, try posting a more generic query there.
