Can a balmacaan work casually with jeans? I’d like a coat that can do both.

Joining in on the balmacaan + denim party. Looking forward to seeing the SM one.

Thanks for the feedback. Which color do you have? I like both of the new ones - maybe the teal barleycorn. Also, how tall are you? I'm only 5'9" and often wonder if a polo/over coat would look too long on me. I know I could have it taken up of course.
Not a chance. I'm around the same height as you and frankly I think the polo coat could use around 3 more inches.

Thanks for the feedback. I honestly don't want something that goes below my knees though. Aside from the looks on me, I just simply don't need that type of coverage down here in the south. If it's at or above the knee then I'm good.

It's above the knee for me. You should be fine
