Not bad but you definitely have more overall room in that coat. My suits are fitted and I'll try to illustrate what I meant in my OP using Nii's pic of his Polo suit above. This is crude but it seems that if the seam was where the red line is (longer sleeve, deeper chest plate) the coat wouldn't behave this way. I just want to know how to describe it Ralph the next time I see him.



In my pics here (how is this even still on photobucket???) that sleeve is fitted to my arm. The armhole dug into my pits, yet still has the same issue:
