What's the back length on that Mulholland? It looks quite long- is that the cut or high-waisted trousers?
I think it's only about 25". The trousers are not as high waisted as I would like, but probably higher rise than most people wear these days. A big reason that it looks fairly long is that I'm short, but with a fairly broad chest. I am 176cm/5'7.5" with a 43" chest, which has gotten even bigger recently with how often I've been hitting the gym. This basically makes all jackets I buy a little long on me, but I never really notice it. I'm so used to it at this point maybe. Although, this is the first time anyone has said any of my jackets have looked long. This isn't to say your wrong, but This looks normal to me.

Not overly long- I go long, too.

Yeah I'm pretty happy with how it sits. However, no doubt that this jacket was designed for someone taller than I am.
I'm not much taller, with a long torso and fairly short legs- jackets are either too long or too short on me- my ideal back length is 26 inches for a short jacket and 28 inches for a long one. Any longer and I look like a man unhinged.

if you're 176cm, then you're 5.77 feet or 5'9" I know because I'm 176cm a metric system user and has been searching online how to calculate it in imperial :D

Just trying this one inside that I received from sunny California. NOS 70’s Lee Storm Rider. It’s a solid jacket and very well put together. The denim is very nice and for a left-hand twill it’s got quite some character. The only bad thing about it is that it is a leather jacket replacement in terms of warmth.

I’ve been after one of this for a while now and luckily one in my size came up at an interesting price.

LOL. Damn straight man. Had I known it would look that good. I would’ve been less preoccupied trying to cheat at scrabble and getting a damn winning bid in! That’s a Sunday night in my house. LOL. You slayed it man. Worth every penny as far as I can tell. Brilliant fit.

Thanks brother - if I ever decide to part ways with it, you’ll get first right of refusal. I think we’re similar in jacket size. Hey now, that sounds like a perfect Sunday in my book!
