I think it looks very good on you.

Thanks, a bit too short for me unfortunately, otherwise it's a lovely jacket.

Is there back length to the bottom of the knit? Same question for the sleeves. Thanks.

I think it really depends on your body type. If you are slim (but not too lanky) with long legs (comparatively to your torso proportion), I think an A2 will look. But then, with that body type, almost anything would look good. I keep seeing people with bulgy body (especially with a beer belly)...

Leather that squeaks will always squeaks, I don't have Badalassi jacket, but my Vanson Enfield with comp weight still squeaks as loud as new, after more than 5 years and completely broken in. It squeaks less when completely wet though.

I have a 38 Enfield as well, also comp weight. I'm also 40 chest, but the Enfield fits nicely due to its action back. This jacket has one of the best pattern, I can layer a wool sweater and it's still very comfortable. It's built like a tank and heavy. When new and not broken in yet, yeah it...

I have a Thedi peacoat, in veg tanned Italian horsehide, and a removable shearling liner. The shearlig liner makes it a good three-season jacket, even in Canadian winter. The Italian horsehide is soft, needs no break in, and does not squeak. And a peacoat is good for dressing up and down. The...

This combo looks very cool! This reminds me to pull out my Arthur Beale Beerenger to prepare for next week's cold weather.

Love this combination! Great fit too.

what are you looking for sale?

Keep it, man, it looks good on you. It's rare to have an A2 that doesn't make you look like you are carrying a beer belly.

Almost my perfect size, except for the shoulder, need at least 19. I thought you are one size larger than me, how does the below 18 shoulder fit you in terms of movement ?

Thedi Peacoat, with removable shearling vest and antique brass button. Not today, it was yesterday. Went for a walk for 2 hours on the mountain after 2 days of heavy snow. It was -5C, with wind gust to 30Km/h. Underneath is a long sleeve cotton T-shirt, and an Arthur Beale Beerenberg pullover...

Nice peacoat!!! Looks really good on you. I'll need to show off my Thedi peacoat another, when I could have someone to snap the picture ;)

Thanks for that information. Even though I'm a 40'' chest, I also went with size L, as this was recommended by Arthur Beale's folks as well. Just received it today, fits great because of the 19'' shoulder. The sleeves seem a bit curiously short though, and I have to pull quite a bit to have my...
