I too learn a bit shortish sleeve from standard size works too after, sometime/ most of the time it is only in the mind of the wearer.

Like any proper cult leader you don’t follow your own teachings! At least you’re honest about it... [emoji6]

And I couldnt find it. Perhaps not a US release? Looks Boss.
This arrived yesterday, so I'm wearing it to try it on a little,, as I'm still not really adventuring out of the house too much. But it's too nice a jacket to not keep putting it on.

Carhartt Sheffield. Their version of the N-1 deck jacket; this one in a sort dark navy (almost black) with a borg-type lining instead of the vintage-traditional alpaca (?) wool.

Ribbed storm cuffs. Manly canvas fabric, but not rigid, still soft and draping to a degree. Seems pretty warm, but lightweight and not stifling.

Very pleased!

@ton312 re going shorter on a HWM. Both are Premier HWM from Aero‘s sales pages. Measurements are close to identical but for the cordovan jacket being one full inch shorter in the body.
Now, I do have to say I „feel“ the blue HWM being longer and it does „feel“ roomier as well. By the looks of the pictures, fit looks pretty identical to me (First picture taken ca. ten months ago; jacket ca. 18 months old).

My 2 cents: I love both jackets. The blue one works slightly better with layering. Both have been sales items, and had I specced them, in all likelihood, I would not be much happier, wiser or more „done“ with jackets...

Something about the angled chest pocket really makes the bottom one have more of an “edge” IMHO.

That made me laugh (and still does)! Never realised, that the chest-pockets were angled differently. Ran upstairs to check, and of course you’re right...
