Hacking Jacket First Fitting
Hi All
I have reached the first fitting of what i am calling my hacking jacket. Three buttoned, angled pockets, ticket pocket, central vent. As you would have seen from my other post on Front Balance I have already made some adjustments before getting to this point. Following John W's direction I have slide the back up 3/4" to improve on the front balance. There is still a slight "A" slant at the front edge but really it's not as bad as the photo shows. Also the back is a little flatter than the photo shows. I am reasonably happy with it all but would be interested in any comments.
Cheers
Ken
All comments gratefully received. Hoping to move on tomorrow ☺️

At a glance it looks like:
Half back measure is wrong, probably why your sleeves look a little big.
Shoulder slope is wrong.
Sleeve pitch is wrong.
Looks like a drop shoulder on left side has not been accounted for.
Coat needs a lot of work yet, a few more fittings at least.
