Is it cool enough for tweeds in NYC? I am still running fresco and linen in upstate.

Looks great either way, I am a fan on your two pattern fits.

Thanks. High is 70. It’s a lightweight weave.

What do you do when life gives you lemons (e.g. wearing a name badge in a boring conference?). You smoke a cigar with a good scotch in hand, because lemonades are dull.

This is superb and just about the the perfect jacket length on you. The navy DB is far too short.
Thanks, I really like the length on the brown jacket as well! I cannot agree about the length of the DB one, I think it's just fine. It splits the body in half and covers everything that should be covered. Perhaps the latest photo is taken from a slightly downward angle and gives such impression (in spoilers two different photos of the suit). But in my opinion the length is perfectly acceptable. Anyways, thanks for your opinion! :)

Length looks good to me!

With a brown jacket for comparison. Choose your fighter! (I think both work but blue edges out brown for this combination.)
