Yes or No?

From teh pic, the fit around teh shoulders (not on the side of your body) seem to be wrong (some creasing...)

But mostly, it seems a bit short. could be also the colors that emphasize the jacket's relative shortness (rather light khaki green on a bklack outfit makes your jacket stand out). Maybe if you lightened up the rest of the outfit?

I think uin a few posts, we'll have succeeded in ruining this jacket for you

Maybe you should just follow your heart!

As an update, i stopped by the tailor after work to ask about it, and found that the pads were readily accessible under some of the internal fabric, without even tearing seams... She took them out for free and exactly as I suspected, it fits WAY better. Longer in the sleeves and body, and no pulling in the upper-chest area.

Lots of disagreement about the fit around the middle (too big! too small!) but really I think its just that this is more of a "shirt-jacket" with a double-layer coated poplin feel, so it's not going to fit or fall like a blazer no matter what. I'll try to get another fit pic to demonstrate the improvement later.

it's a bit short but don't see the fuss over the shoulders...

i know i honestly don't think it looks that bad. i think a less pronounced shoulder pad would add a little sleeve length maybe and still leave a little tailored structure to the jacket should he decide to pinch the waist but its not necessary to do anything really imo

I think we could see the pads through the fabric, and the upper torso seemed indeed a bit constricted.

Anyway, it seems to be fine now so , t-bone!

what's with the shoulder pad hate? got a sweet devoa blazer that almost entirely rules due to them.

Not bad at all...I may have to try this with mine.

[asecretmaker]

the should still looks a little weird imo.

[holger]

yes or no? and is the LS (Attachment) one size too big for me? thanks for feedback

[eton97]

Not the best fit I've seen on you H. Especially around the torso. Looks kind of fitted on the shoulders and around the armpits yet flares out around the stomach. Shot from the back not great either. Prefer you in some of your other tops

good lord one of my most shameless posts. and i intend to make this work somehow, but not sure how yet. i am running full speed toward the absurd

I really like these pieces, and they do appear to suit you.
Gotta be boots or sock-less though!!

shoulders look good imo, though the sleeves could be just a bit longer. also, judging just from this picture, the body could be a bit more snug

totally agree

Ok, so the weather is changing and i needed to put shorts etc away and dig out some fall stuff. This affords me the opportunity to 'go shopping in my closets'. I came across this old suit. A suit that i once, and still love. It's made out of a heavy woollen, sport coat, not suiting goods that are beautiful. The lapels are wide and the shoulders have construction and pads commensurate with the era i originally wore it, but not THAT big. Usually i can look at stuff and know how it looks but with this suit,and some other stuff buried in my closet,i am unable to view it objectively because of my historical attachment. I don't know why the pants are so long and can't remember what shoes (or stilts) i wore them with. I would definitely shorten them. I don't mind the fullness of the leg as long as the length gets cleaned up....gotta let the waist out a lil and maybe taper the sleeve head and do some waist suppression to the jacket...my question refers to the shoulders and lapels.

i realize that this isn't really a sz aesthetic but i trust the opinions here....most of them anyway :P

so can i wear this suit now?...if nea, i just put it back until the worm turns
