Agreed, just checked and realized my Bertolo sport coat has a chest patch pocket along with side patch pockets. Dark brown so didn't notice the chest before.

I'm leaning towards unstructured sport coats though and thick tweed's naturally more on the structured side. Don't know where to go, especially for db's, after exhausting yoox options.

This is more of a 'this or that'...
Pretty set on picking up a Needles Rebuild jacket - but which one? I was set on the shawl collar initially, but for some reason the peak lapel is calling out to me...

I have a shawl collar one and like it very much, but given the choice I would go for the peak lapel
