An eBay purchase that didn't work out: This is a 2-button medium brown jacket with 2 small back vents. Made in Italy by Dunhill. The jacket is 70% Cashmere, 30% Wool. Very soft texture, also very light. The size label reads 38 (chest measures 40") but note that the sleeves are short -- 15" on the inside measurement, 23" on the outside. There is about 1.5" left to extend each sleeve. I would not recommend this for a 38R (like me) as the sleeves aren't long enough. This would be ideal for a 36S or 38S. Length of the jacket is 31". Looking to recoup what I paid, so $70. Price includes shipping anywhere in N America.

Is the length from the collar seam or the top of the collar? Also, could you post the width of the shoulders?

Thanks.

The length is from the top of the collar at the middle in the back to the very bottom, it comes in at just over 30". The shoulders measure just over 16" straight across. I'm a 37R and this fits me perfectly except the sleeves are too short.

Thanks.

What is the measurement from the collar seam (where the felt starts) down to the bottom? If it comes in under 29", I'm definitely interested.
