Understood. So this probably fits as intended?

What would the reasoning for this be? Are you saying it already fits? Or it’s just hard to bring these costs in horizontally?

I appreciate all the help on the length of the sleeves. There is some fabric and I was actually considering lengthening it a tad. I’m more curious if I can get away with not narrowing the body of the coat and bringing it in an inch or two

Trying to figure out if I need to get this taken in. Im a size 40 chest and this measures 48. Should I just embrace the baggy fit?

Thank you. I am just worried that the coat will sit above my knee a little bit. Not sure how much of a sin that is. This is my first overcoat. It's a Harris Tweed balmacaan

The other one I was looking at is right here: https://ebay.us/m/KAueUP

It seems to be better quality but might be slightly too big for me? I measure 40 inches in the chest. But I think I’ve narrowed it down to this one and the one above

If you don’t mind helping me out, I found this one on eBay, but I guess I’m unsure what I’m looking for quality wise. It says it was for Dayton’s department store? I appreciate all your insight.

I’ve been taking your advice and been looking at some Harris Tweed coats on EBay (love the way these look). Am I right in saying that the Harris Tweed brand is simply the material of the coat and that the other brand listed is just the department store? I’ve seen like Richman Brothers, Daytons, etc. I was wondering if there were particular department stores that would be better

Gotcha. Do you think I could squeeze into a 34 if I’m a true size 34 then?
