Any clues what color these are?

The first 3 pics look greenish but the latter pics make it look more grey.. either way I gambled because I've been dying to try a DBF linen easy pants

Really liked seeing the pics in the worn by post. Always helps me figure out what might look good on me and how to style. To that end, I’ve been smitten with the silhouette of the grandad coat and have been collecting pics. I bit the bullet on the camel one after seeing how it looked in @Newcomer’s waywt fit pic yesterday. Heads up, division road is running a sale that you can apply to DBF!

@LeBeef - it's a really nice coat! Here is another picture below.

A word of advice - let it settle for a little bit! For some reason, the lapel is pressed to roll pretty high - although it falls to where it "should" roll over time.

However, I am a little worried about the sleeve length for you.

You got a 50? The measurements seemed to be OK, so I'll see how it is when it gets here. I'm not too particular on sleeves other than really not liking them if they're too long.

Darn you look great in the granddad coat. Is there room for you to wear a 50 sportscoat underneath the coat ?
