The infamous Chevy Chase

"The William B. Douglas party, including Navaho and Paiute Indians, celebrate their discovery of Rainbow Bridge, Utah, as they eat watermelon in Paiute Canyon, 1909. By Judd" Found this while browsing the photos in the national archives. Buddy on the far right is wearing a great outfit, he'd not look too out of place walking around in that today. Great examples of early Western wear all around. National Archives American West Photo Library

@beautiful_FrEaK You may have just put my credit in danger if I don't exercise some self control, but thank you!

@AlientoyWorkmachine Thank you big time for all those, that Ooe Yofukuten looks absolutely stunning, it's devastating to hear they're so rare. I'm aware of the modified length Type 2's made by Sugar Cane, I stayed far away from those. As for my jacket, it's an SC15650 and the length measures about 23.75in @Double 0 Soul Appreciate the rec, but those are the measurements I'm going for post soak rather than raw. My SC jacket actually has very similar measurements, except I'm sitting at 23.75 body length and 18 shoulder width. -
@NilsLW Mepse has been on my radar for a few months, I wanted to get the repro of the 70s Black Corduroy Type 3 they did recently since I have an original, and the measurements on that were damn faithful. Unfortunately, I'd have to use a proxy to purchase from them, and I'm just not very familiar with the process. The superstitch is beautiful, great shape, but 450 euro is madness. Guess I'll have to do some research on proxies. Thanks!

Any recs on a faithful Type 1 or 2 repro regarding fit? They're all too long in the body and too tight in the arms/shoulders. Currently wearing a Sugar Cane 1953 Type 2 in a 38 that I wish was an inch shorter in the body and an inch wider in the shoulders. -
Does anyone know who makes the most faithful reproduction Type 1 or 2 in terms of fit? Every single one seems too long for me (and, less importantly, too tight in the armhole). Legit vintage jackets max out at 23-24 inches in body length for the largest sizes (from what I've seen doing research), but when it comes to repros the smallest sizes start at this length. For reference I have a Levi's Premium Type 1 (size small) and a Sugar Cane 1953 Type 2 SC15650 (size 38) and they're both about an inch and a half too long for my liking.
