I understand. I was just trying to re-emphasize that this sportcoat is not made on their normal model which is quite different. This one is more of a jacket based on a shirt, and much better than the norm IMO.

The original image was a bit dark, so the result may not be very satisfying.
But some details are showing!

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the valiant effort SG, what is really needed, I think, is not only better lighting but a better camera. I shall endeavour to borrow one and post the results in a new thread.

I am most grateful for the interest exhibited already!

Bird, I think that it's a sharp looking suit and the whole outfit is nicely put together too.

You're right, you probably want the jacket a bit shorter, the waist less suppressed, and the coat sleeves a little trimmer.

Ofcourse, it's all about what you like and not us, but I think FWIW, that It looks good on you and what you already intuitively know is pointing you in the right direction in your choices.

Matt,

Is this part of what you refer to about the boxy shoulders?
This is a Nerano, while it feels soft, the line at the end of the shoulder pad is visible at times.
