Any chance I can get pics of this fit in normal lightning, with a natural poseand, without stone face and without sades?

Will you need him to smile ear-to-ear to decide whether his jacket looks alright or would a grin do?

Hmm... Tough question. How about just a regular smile? I kinda like smiles. They make me happy and all warm and fuzzy inside.

That's a cool jacket. What brand are those sunglasses?

Perfect length on that second one. IMO length is what kills a lot of FG jackets like the DRs.

I agree Falcon standard lengths are too long, but M2M has a very small upcharge so not a big deal! I have 4 Falcons actually.

And yes, length is perfect in that TF, looks phenomenal from behind as well, and length is one of the reasons IMO.

I have two: One peacoat, one DR. Peacoat is perfect. The suggested measurements on the MTM DR is likely OK given the models posted in their IG and how the jacket sits lower on the hips is same as mine. Also apparent in a lot of user MTM posts. Then I got an Aeon tanker jacket from Rosen-X which is cropped. Gracia at Rosen is great at staying true to the jacket's origins. So much better when timeless jackets sit the way they did like how Marlon Brando wore his DR. But FG probably has to appeal to a wider market where most would prefer a streetwear -type sizing with longer length in the body and sleeves. Charly did say his measurements are all discretionary and is ultimately up to the customer to decide.

It`s quality for the money vs. other comparable tech wear but with MTM. Wore it for all 1.5 months of fall that we had in Chicago. Get it cropped and w/ dropped shoulders like how it was modeled!
