Fit Check: Is this jacket too short?

[Cheb]

Hi there, first post here but I've been lurking for some time.

I just purchased this Vanson Cheyenne trucker style jacket and I have really been after a slim fitting jacket. I have eight leather jackets total but this one is definitely the smallest. I know this is a motorcycle jacket so it should fit snugly and is meant to be on the shorter side, but I am unsure if this one is too short. I feel like the chest, shoulders, and sleeves fit great... But the hem is quite snug when the bottom button is snapped and it sits just above my belt. Is this proper, or does it look silly?

Thanks, any advice is appreciated!

Try it with higher-rise jeans first. It looks off with these pants.

I love high rise Mike, I have at least 3 pair of jeans like that, 2 with suspenders buttons, high rise chinos also, after all these jackets were designed in the age of high waisted pants

Eh, I think I'd probably just as soon sell the jacket. I'm not so into high waisted pants. Thank you for the suggestion. I agree it doesn't look right.

The jacket is too short in length and narrow in the waist

Even though trucker jackets are supposed to be rather short, I think this one is a bit too short.

I had the same problem with my Vanson trucker and I moved it on.

I think it looks great. Short, yes, but short truckers can be rocked, unapologetically.
