Looks like a car coat or peacoat IMO. Are you wearing another jacket underneath?

It only looks blousy because all the chest hair lofts the shirt outward. Like goose down.

I like how clueless these high-end American companies are.


Honest question, how in the world isn't oxxford bankrupt? Boggles the mind...
