I apologize for this completely arbitrary jacket length thread.

Ok I wanna get a jacket that will fit really baggy but not ridiculously long.

I have two options.

XL-which is length of 37 in
and
L-length of 32 inches

I'm 5 10 ish and i measured it and the 37 inches goes to like right above my kneecaps maybe an inch higher, and the large is about 3/5 down my thigh...

Does the XL sound too long?

Which one?

Thanks for reading my "fashion thread"

No hate please!

I say get the large. Down to your knees sounds like a dress.

Start measuring from around your nose, remember this is zipper length, don't measure starting from your collar bone.

it depends what the size chart says. if the arrows are on the zipper hes right but if the arrows are start at the pit then your right.

note: b = shoulder to cuff.

So measure from your shoulder down

I'm 5'10 and I already ordered a First Drop XL blue suit. Measurement is from shoulder. Large is 5 inches shorter, so thats kinda a lot. That's why I went XL, and I talked to Lesh about it and it said it would be nice and huge.

Does anyone have a saga sizing chart from last year?

I have a friend who has an XL saga jacket that fits EXACTLY how i want, but he says the length is 32...

I don't believe him.

I'm also about 5'10 and I'm getting an XL Firstdrop jacket, and I think it should be fine. I don't know what size to get the pants though...
Here is last year's saga's sizing chart:
