Thanks all for your kind words of support. I feel (re-) assured that I can live with the lenght as it is. I´d still prefer an inch more, but then it´s nothing I will lose any sleep over.
Thanks, Marc, for the photo-comparison. The sheep Dom indeed drapes MUCH better. What is more, I am sure it will adapt to my torso even more while the HH is notoriously "springy" and doesn´t really break in.
You will notice that the angle of the HH-version is slighty downward while the SH is upward. Indeed back-lenght on both jackets is exactly the same, but I maintain that the HH "felt" longer.
Additional photo of the Addict "Corsair" clone. Same angle as the SH Dominator. Looks like almost identical lenght but indeed has two full inches (!) more in the body.
Re beige zipper tape. I was surprised to see (not unpleasantly!) how prominent the contrast to the black hide is. Addict uses a slightly more grey-ish tape which isn´t as exposed as with LL, so the optical impression is much more muted.
Indeed: Sheep seems to be the flavor of the summer of 21...
