It's only too big if you think it is?! I personally prefer a roomier fit so you can layer, particularly so with this style coat/jacket as it is for cooler temps. Looks great and nice colour.

Its going back to Carrie at Thurston, @nick123 give her a call....its a beautiful jacket, the Cordovan Vicenza is really REALLY nice.

As usual, Carrie is on top of it and has made some suggestions that make sense.....the wait begins again lol

I think that is the right choice. Carrie knows her business. It has some shoulder droop, sleeves are a little too long and the torso is too large for you. It is a nice coat, though.

I was about to say exactly the same thing that @Peacoat just said; brilliant minds think just about alike. :D I suspect if you drop back exactly one size that the coat should be just about perfect. The sleeves should shorten a bit automatically after the shoulder measurement is reduced but ask Carrie if the sleeves need to be shortened an additional 1/2" or so. This one looks to be the perfect winter coat.

I failed to see how it was too big at first glance. Sorry it didn't work out @ProteinNerd. Disappointing but you'll end up happier in the long run. Until then wear that J-100 if it isn't too warm down there.

It's certainly not awful mate but I think you know yourself that you're gonna feel more comfortable about wearing the next size down. As they say in Game of Thrones, winter is coming!
