Manton,
Very nice classic OC.
Are the darts that are used to shape this OC the same as the ones on the DB suit jacket made by the same tailor?
Yes.

Manton,
According to?
My tailor has often mentioned that mid-calf is the right length for a DB overcoat. I get mine maybe an inch below the knee.

But an inch below the knee is not mid calf.
Funny, I've talked to lots of "expert tailors" who say mid-calf is "correct."

Which tailors were these and from what shops? And I guess it's not so important on a tall man but observe mid calf length coats on short men this winter and tell me what you think. Doesn't it emphasise their shortness?
