With your frame IMO you should try either a 3/2roll SC or a 2 button with the top button positioned higher. Also, its a little hard to see but maybe losing an inch off the total length of the jacket would look good too.
Trying on the pants before hemming. Anything else I should fix?

From the front the shoulders seem to fit ok but the back view is a different story, there looks to be a little extra space up there. This also seems to be the case with the upper back (shoulder blades area). +1 regarding the previous comment about the converging windowpane pattern below the middle button. Overall it seems as though it is just a bit too big.Not sure how I like the fit. Trying to go more "classic" than suppressed and I'm not sure if I'm just not used to a fuller cut or if its genuinely fucked up.
also, sorry about the lighting, was raining slightly when I took this, so had to use covered porch.

Could not disagree more. If anything, a slight frame demands a wider lapel.

I totally agree, I was scared to say anything when I saw the jacket for the first time, the lapels looked ridiculous, however, they look fine when he wears it.
The pockets look huge though!
As for space in the back, I think he's just standing in a funny way.

I can only assume you mean wider relative to shoulder width, rather than wider in absolute terms?

I think it's an RLP Garrison -- could be wrong
