cropped uppers, higher waisted pants, and slimmer thighs would help infinitely more
40mms should be fine if you get everything else in proportion

For reference, I'm only 5'7/169cm but all my jackets are cropped and most my jeans are mid-waisted

Where are your go-tos for your cropped jackets/tops (assuming you don't just get them all tailored)? I'm 5'5 so most regular length tops are too long on me.

all of my jackets are womens, vintage, or Japanese brands (NN, Shellac, Blackmeans, etc). Never tailored a jacket length wise, only width wise, as I'm also skinny (107lbs atm)

107 is very rock n' roll!!

I'm 5'6" and almost never have to get my SL jackets shortened, although I do so for Dior which tend to run a touch longer unless it is the "court" cut.

We'll see where Hedi lands with Celine. Cropped is more convenient for me. Nothing below the knuckles is a good rule of thumb for guys below 5'10".

Just checked the website and looks like they are cutting back on the Wyatt design and putting in these hideous Miles boots up top. :cry:

Yeah I agree that Miles boot can go take a hike. No idea why one would want those honestly.

The new vintage stonewashed leather Wyatts are dope, though. I'm considering to pick up the black pair.

Was wondering if the Wyatt Chelseas in smooth leather will go on sale anytime soon? or when does it usually go on sale?

looks amazing! love that cut and design. I bet that fabric is beyond soft and luxe. it's hard to do a hoodie with pockets in the front without it looking pudgy. that one works well.

How is L01 sizing? I am normally size small at 5'10", 147 lbs so I was gonna go size 46 unless I'd need to size up.

You're about a perfect 46. It'll be tight to zip but they look better open. The only reason to size up is if you've got a more mesomorph or whatever the body-builder physique is called with particularly wide shoulders.

Has anyone had any issues with itchiness on the wool teddy jackets despite the lining?

Also, for those who’ve had one for a while, how badly do the cuffs stretch out over time? I tend to wear bombers/varsity jackets with the sleeves pulled up on my forearms?
