Re: Big topcoats with set-in sleeves, anyone know how much leeway you have relative to body measurements? There's a lot of coats on ebay with some huge chests.
I've a polo coat that has a chest that's 4" bigger than my own, and 1.5" bigger shoulders. The overall coat looks quite broad and straight on me. I dig it, but it does feel trim despite how it looks, maybe I've gotten too used to raglan coats.
I have raglans that range from 6-12.5" bigger than my chest. They all work but provide different silhouettes and are in different weights and materials.
