Depends on how tall you are.PLATON wrote:You guys laugh about my "long jacket obsession" but you forget that if the jacket was 23 inches, that is consider long.
If appears short on your bodies that's your problem, don't try to convince me that it was short, because 23 inches is not short.
If 23 inches is long to you, then you must be short.
I am 6' 1" tall, and a jacket with a length of only 23 inches would just BARELY come to my waist!
Just like sleeve length, you can't make an assumption like that since no two people are exactly
the same size, height, weight, arm length, or have the same body structure. Or just like two people
who might be 6' tall, one can have a short upper body with long arms and long legs, and the other
person might have a long torso, short legs and short arms. They can both be the 6' tall, but one could
weigh 140 pounds and be a bean pole and one could weigh 280 pounds with a huge gut and no chest
and a big (Mod edit: don't skirt the word filter).
They are obviously different body styles, and thus would take totally different length jackets even
though they might both be 6' tall. So, a 23 inch long jacket on one might be fine, while the other one
it could be too short or too long.
Your statement might be true if every single person on this planet was built exactly the same, but
we are not. Thats why a 23 inch long jacket is long to you, and thats fine.
But like you said, if a 23 inch long jacket appears long on your body, it must just be your problem, as
it would be way to short for me and many others on the forum.
