I just have compared the two pictures and your new jacket looks like if it would miss atleast one extra inch in front. If the back is longer then the front then I would say that it's about 1-2 inches too short in the front.

Because you wrote screen accurate. I think the right jacket looks more SA on you. I've found some LC picture:

Reminds me of the look of your new jacket.

and here the Raiders length:

I just post that pics because you wrote SA

Much regards

jacksparrow900, may I ask you to use punctuation marks in the future? Your writing is a bit difficult to read without.

Im sorry......why is it difficult to read ?

I had no trouble reading it .

let´s say uncomfortable to read not difficult to read don´t you think punctuation marks make text much more comfortable to read when you know where one sentence ends and the next one begins what else are punctuation marks for

Actually, I just pretended I was watching "Speed Racer", and it became very easy to read.

used the same specs you used platon

Yeah, I recognized them, just wanted a confirmation.
I 'm glad these specs worked for you.

well my size is a 38 , which i think the 80's cut not only has tapered sleeves but a thighter fit which i like because ford's jacket in raiders was thight but not to the point of no movement but still can be worn slighty off the shoulders like in the beginning of the film . i think you've stumble on the correct measurements platon for the hero jacket worn by harrison ford in raiders of the lost ark .

PLATON · Post by **PLATON** » Tue May 29, 2007 8:18 am

The jackets you wear in the first post are both size 38?

jacksparrow900 · Post by **jacksparrow900** » Tue May 29, 2007 5:51 pm
