Looks short and tight. Did you ever try a larger size or contemporary (if this is slim)?

I did not try larger size in S&M, but in similar brands and this is rather not the way to go I would even say that it’s pretty loose and I like it as it is supposed to be a summer season

Mostly agree with @Ebichuman
Shoulders and chest look good. Waist and seat look too snug. Length is ok, but it could be a bit longer.

I don't know if when cutting the basting from the back vents, they will not look completely closed.

Well, judging your fit preference by your leggins, the jacket may very well be "loose"

I usually have problem with sportcoats as I dont have straight back. I can show you how it looked in my case for different brand with size 48 and 50 (not much different with bigger size)

I would say the brown is a tad too short and tight like @Ebichuman has stated. Looking at the side profile, it looks as if it follows your back/rear so tight it outlines it. It is supposed to subtly follow the contours, not be like this (AFAIK, others can confirm). It looks like there is also a subtle X pattern in the button, meaning too tight. What size did you get??
As for the other two photos, you can clearly see an X pattern in them along with wrinkles in the back. They are definitely too tight. What is your chest size?

My chest is about 96cm. The sportcoat is 38. I guess this is correct size according to S&M size table

Theoretically, maybe. You'll benefit from sizing up, my friend.

Is this the 38R Slim? If so, you definitely need either a 38 Contemporary or try a 40 Slim next time around. I would also maybe recommend trying a Long instead of a regular (at least for the 38, maybe the extra length of the 40 would be fine in regular length).

I also have a prominent bum and the exact same chest size.

Curious to see whether that's a 38R Slim or Contemporary. Based on how narrow the waist is out of the box, I'm guessing slim.

There is no way I'd be comfortable in a 38R slim, I only wear contemporary.

I’m afraid that it’s impossible as it was last unit and I had to import it to Europe ? Anyway I know that’s not perfect, but I hope it’s at least okay... Maybe that will be another reason to loose some cm
it’s 38 slim. I don’t know what this ‚R’ stands for?

R stands for Regular length. I hope you get joy from wearing your amazing new jacket. You chose it, and you like the way it fits you. I like it, too.

If you can get it on and it looks fine, definitely still wear it as otherwise it'd be a waste of money and resources to just not wear it. Just next time, I would suggest trying the 38L Contemporary (or at least the 38R Contemporary), I think you'll be pleased! Enjoy the jacket and hopefully it serves you well

Any chance that Rick can put out something like this next season?
