Schott 618 fit with pics

[Damo]

Hello again gentlemen,

This came to me while I was looking through 618 pics on the internet. I came to the conclusion that this jacket looks best worn open. What are your thoughts? I have a pic of it opened and a pic of it closed for comparison.

Same conclusion. For some reason it doesn't look as short.

Depends on who is wearing it I guess.

It doesn't look too short on Miss Buxley for sure.

All kidding aside,seriously I do think it looks better opened than closed. It seems to be a pretty short jacket. Are there any 618 owners around 5'11" with a fit pic of the jacket zipped up? I'd love to see where the jacket sits.

Open. I think most jackets look better open.

Mine fits about the same as an Aero 30s HB, but I'm only five ten.... Photo on the right of the op, that t shirt hanging down under the jacket looks bad and shortens it visually, imo.

Haha, you okay there Edward?
