My Herm's
The angled chest pockets are great. Another inch of sleeve length would be Ideal.

I think your jacket is actually a Passaic:

I think you’re right. Had to look back at mine and it sure is.
Different cut too. Not nearly as much flare at the hem.
I love these slanted chest pockets. Passaic took them to extreme; almost vertical. My Bates has them slanted as well, more like @KBlake 's Herm's. The Herm's CR I saw had epaulets, which I was not crazy about. This one is a cross between Bates and HD Sportster - a good looking child!
