I think you nailed it!
That’s how I love cossack jacket styles to fit, snug and with shorter sleeves than most prefer.
It is a beauty and I like that there’s not a button close to the collar, means you can flip it and give it your desired roll.
Another short one reminiscent of the 30-40s german leather jackets:

I think this one it's definitely a keeper and one of the best if not the best in your collection.
Looks and fits you a lot better than that longer leather coat from SB.
I just read your PM and I'll get back to you!
I'm a huge fan of the short jacket and high waisted trousers. I just love the look and it's a look that I love rocking around.

These european...
I still remember back in the day when you tried to make a model specially for TFL but in the end the project didn't work out. Those Buzz Rickson jackets are amazing!
PS: I just realised that this stupid notifications system didn't tell me about your PM about the shawl collar Buzz Rickson suede...
See, that's something that doesn't sound as wonderful but then other makers do that with quite a few jackets, first example that comes to mind? The A-1 which as far as I know only Eastman Leather Clothing owns an original.
I would like to know where all those pictures come from and full...
I'm not the expert here but that is done in shoemaking and look at how long leather shoes and boots last and they get more abuse than any leather jacket will ever receive.
Just because a maker doesn't do it doesn't mean it's a wrong method of doing it.
Great jacket!
I have to admit that I'm always a bit surprised when I see people wearing these super warm jackets at the top and then at the bottom just regular trousers!
Holy crap!
Say whatever you want about BK but that's a fantastic idea and seeing the original picture in order to choose your new order is pretty cool, specially knowing the origin of the style.
Exactly my thoughts! Such awesome jackets in that list.
That measurement is not strange to me to be honest. I have a few vintage jackets (Wool and Leather) that are meant to me that short. I have some with 21-22 inches. Certain styles like sports jackets, aviator, cycling, motorcycles are meant to be shorter than usual and this is on the shorter end...
All of these jackets when new look "terrible" and when worn look absolutely amazing. The longer coats specially. Wear it in good health, get it worn in and then decide if you still have the same issue.
If you don't get to the worn in stage you can't really judge I think.
That's just pure perfection.
PS: If you ever get as close as only thinking of letting it go I'll ask the moderators to ban you from posting here ever again!
I don't think that jacket suits @Carlos840 at all. I have to agree with his gf here. Specially used to seeing him in those other jackets that fit him perfectly.
It doesn't work with your overall style I would say.
