so i'm finally starting to wear clothes that fit me (too much time growing up in urban environment), and I am starting to realize that I don't know what "fit" actually means.
i have seen a lot of threads talking about overcoat sleeve length, shirt sleeve length, blazer length, but nothing about coats/jackets other than that. i am looking at a pea coat from banana republic that fits better than any other jacket i have found, but the sleeves stop where the arm and hand meet (covering that bone on the top of my wrist). based on my research, if this were a blazer it would be a good fit, if it were an overcoat it would be too short.
so is this too short or too long?
