If anything the update to Yosemite on the rMBP is more troublesome. Very unreliable OS from apple. Hoping 10.3 update with sort some bugs out."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

I don't either (wrong build for them) but I have seen some guys wearing them recently and they can look very smart if you're quite slim and get a nicely fitted one. I think the mistake is either wearing too baggy, or being of any bulk (not necessarily fat, just not "petite", in wimmin parlance).Originally posted by scooterscot View PostI don't do double breasted.

Center-vented jackets, very popular on American suits, have a single slit at the back, allowing the jacket to expand at the bottom when sitting. Because of its placement, center-vented jackets have a habit of exposing the wearer’s posterior, though most seem not to mind. The popularity of the center vent is not in it’s functionality, but in that it is the least expensive vent to manufacture.

mens suit jacket double ventThe crown jewel of vents is the double or side-vented jacket marked by two vents, one on either side, generally just behind the trouser pockets, to provide easy access and freedom of movement. Side vents facilitate sitting more easily, moving as needed to prevent the rumpling of the jacket back. Double vents do an excellent job of covering a man’s backside, especially when compared to the single vent and adds a more robust dimension to the wearer’s silhouette.
