That'll do Major, thx. I can see it has that 'vintage' length and you wear it well. Those freddies don't look too shabby on you either.

I like this jacket but with my lanky frame I don't think I could pull it off i.e. by the time I'd added enough length for it to not look ridiculous it'd be something else

Although my torso is slightly shorter than Schitzo's, I also have the same concern about being able to wear a waist jacket since my "sweet spot" for body length is a minimum of a 26" back length. Major, both jackets do look great on you, but for a tall drink of water body structure like Schitz and me ... I dunno? [huh] Maybe a 50's Half Belt works better than just about anything else for Schitz or me. ;)

Personally, I'm impressed with Major's halo. Amazing what an Aero and nice pair of selvedge jeans can do.

Just for Schitz, here's another "halo" shot!;)

Wrangler Cord western shirt
Freddies Jeans (50's cut)
Loblan Boots(very old)

Re the Freddies Jeans, these are a very similar cut to vintage Lee Cowboys/Riders. Nice selfedge denim, and only £75 a go. More cash to spend on jackets!!:D

Don't worry. I'll be that experiment if you can hold off for a while!

Yikes that one is short short.

But I get it's how you like em. Me, I'd probably want another half a waistband's worth of length.

Thanks for the pic!
