Have to agree, every Himel I see, the proportions are just right, has a proper eye for classic cuts.

Bowen,
I appreciate your kind words. Somehow the real me is evidently not portrayed in the pics. I’m the most plain ordinary guy in the world. Heck I’m still wearing the same style jeans & work shirts I wore 40 years ago. I love the vintage style of the good ole days especially hats & jackets.

Hopefully every grandkid grows up thinking they’ve got the coolest Papa in the world.

Even though the jacket was too snug zipped on me, I was blown away by how good the length was. Fits you perfectly.

Between this, some other vintage, and old ads I've seen here I think some of our server pronouncements about jacket length are off. Like I used to think in terms of any back length longer than 25" was too much, then I saw in the ads posted here that the 25" long jackets were offered in 27" long on request!

Stevenson Overall for today

Lol, all those blogs and posts about how 50's jackets don't fit modern people anymore come to mind.

Hello from the Philippines, where it’s always too hot to wear a leather jacket, but I don’t care.

Vanson Highwayman for today.

Lol which blogs are that? The J24L indeed fits a modern wardrobe in terms of body length but that's more exception than rule.

Here's @torfjord 's 50's Blatt, different story
