Do you have your jackets made to be long or is it just how it works out based on the pattern and your height/proportion? I wear L jackets and still can't get them long enough in most styles. Yours look great.

I also have a pair of navy flannels I like to wear. Outside of our little microcosm, I think they're generally socially acceptable.
Here's me for today.

Such a great suit. You wear it well.
I usually go by measurements. I think around 29in is my preferred length … +/- 0.5in. I’m only 5’6”, but also shrinking due to gravity and age.Do you have your jackets made to be long or is it just how it works out based on the pattern and your height/proportion?

Wow!^ It would appear to be a day for suede shoes - see below:
It has been a week since I last donned a suit, a combination of meteorology and tasks for which a suit would be a liability. It is good to get back into dressing up, so that I do not lose my status as "jaunty flaneur".
As it happens, this evening I have a double header of museum receptions/previews - the Met and the Modern, so there is something of an excuse for me to wear something better than jeans, a buttondown shirt, and sneakers.
