too short coat, for casual?

[itskub]

ello, just wanted some quick opinions. H&M suit 38L(coat). Im 6'3", so obviously an OTR suit is way too short no matter who the make. Does it look okay worn casually, not so much formally?
Thank you.

Are you sure that's a L?
I'm 6'2" and a L is way too long.

I am even taller than you (193 cm) and I think that a too short jacket never looks good on anyone who is tall. It just looks like you outgrew your jacket.

you really are an extra long.

I think a lot depends on the distribution of one's height (a stupid way of saying it, but hopefully you get the general idea) between torso and legs. I'm just under 6'1", but I definitely need a L in jackets. My dad, on the other hand, is almost the same height but can wear a R.

+1. Up to 6'1 or so, you can do it - above that and... what he said.

might look better if you actually were wearing a long sleeve shirt that fits - putting the jacket over the t-shirt makes your arms look funny. i think if you had a properly fitting shirt it might look better.
