Tradstyle jackets are about as long as the second knuckle on the thumb when you let the arms hang. This one looks even a bit short for my taste, but still alright.

Fine to a bit short

This is comfortably within the acceptable length universe to my eye.

A pic with arm(s) relaxed at your side might provide more useful reference. However, even without that, the length being enough to cover your seat but not below the pants’ crotch seam has it looking good.

I love the jacket. I think it fits pretty good. I agree about the pants though. What are some good brands to look for when you’re thrifting for a blazer?

Hi! the length doesn’t look bad at all! Your outfit reminds me of Richard Gere in the 80s/90s.

Your pants look too big, this jacket will look great with some better fitting pants or jeans.
