Next the sleeve length should be worn 2 to 4 inches longer than a suit jacket's sleeves to about the pinch on the hand.

Tall and large men should consider longer coats that fall below the knee â€" short coats make them look like giants. Smaller men should select shorter coats that fit above the knee and are closely tailored. These smaller coats will be more proportional and not make you look like you're wading in excess fabric.
