I see what you mean. The novapelle is just slightly, maybe 1/4" but not much. I guess you can't really see the the sleeve length that well in the first photo.
The novapelle is quite heavy so it doesn't drape the same as the cow hide so it kind of sticks out at the front. I'm sure it'll soften up as I wear it.
One thing - I thought the CS / LC came with snaps as standard, but mine hasn't. Must remember to ask for them next time.
Really happy with this one!!

I just assumed that it'd come with them on. Must remember to ask for em next time. I'll go see the tailor in town and see if I can get them put in.
