under the arm. As shown it has a welt breast pocket, a flap ticket pocket on the right side and two flap pockets. The
front is curved at the bottom and buttons high at the neck. The sleeves are two piece. The jacket is fully lined and has
an internal breast pocket. View B is different from View A in the front and collar, the rest of the pieces are the same.
