Hi Guys what do you think to the fit of this jacket? It cost me an arm and a leg mind you ;) Please forgive the background mess I've just recently moved in and I can't get anything done as the neighbours are constantly at it!

Thanks!

Looks fine. It doesn't pull across the front when zipped up, does it?

More important, of course, is how you feel about the fit. But I think it's nice if you want a contemporary take on that style -- the originals were, I think, a little longer and looser.

Thanks for your response. What do you mean when you say "does it pull across the front when you zip it up"?. I don't think it does. I feel amazing when I wear and and I had a few random strangers comment on my assumed wealth ;). Do you think it looks good generally?

Yeah, it's a nice jacket.

What I meant was, does it bulge out like it's too tight when you zip it up?

Thanks for the compliment regarding the jacket :) I dont think the jacket bulges out when zipped up but for your eyes here is a pic of it zipped up.

Haha! As a sidenote I wore this jacket out tonight as well and people assumed I was a banker!
