Based on the two photos provided the left (smaller size) one is better - by a mile (in my opinion).Here are two of the same jackets In different sizes. What are your thoughts? Does the left seem too small?
This is not a reliable way to judge a jackets length due to how much a persons proportions can very. Better to check if the jacket covers the rear and roughly bisects the body in half. In this case, both jackets are too short.4. Body length is correct landing between the two knuckles on your thumb.
From the back it looks a tad pinched, particularly around the small of the back. It's hard to see where the back of the jacket finishes in relation to the drop of the trousers.Here are two of the same jackets In different sizes. What are your thoughts? Does the left seem too small?
The length hits right about where the inseam of pants start. I’ve read articles with conflicting view points on length. Some say shorter guys 5’8 and under it should end mid crotch with a jacket some say always cover the full crotch. With my hands relaxed by my side I can cup the bottom.From the back it looks a tad pinched, particularly around the small of the back.

Personally I'm leaning towards the larger size, but I'd also want to trousers to be a looser fit than that.
You can't. Post a full body picture from the back with the camera at mid body elevation.How can you tell measurement wise if it bisects the body? For reference I’m between 5’7-5’8 and the jacket is 29 inches measured from the back down.
SureCould you post another picture of the back with your hands by your side - I think when you have them tugged forward it's pulling the back of the jacket out of shape.
How do I judge the length on a jacket? To my eyes it covers my whole seat and I can cup the bottom with my fingers. Do you think letting the waist out bit would add a little extra length?I think from the back the jacket is about a 1/2 inch to an inch too short. The jacket does look a little (only a little) tight at the back.
