short jackets
I need to get short clothes. shirts, jumpers and trousers are easy to hem, but jackets and coats arent. Is there anything I can do to make searching for short clothes easier other than just keep looking?
Theres a brand called Ruler of London that makes short menswear, but I havent seen any reviews of it. Does anyone know whether their stuff is any good?

is this because you’re short or because you like the silhouette
Blazer sizes come in short, regular and long. If 40S (or whatever your size is) is still too long, you may need to find a good tailor and pay for alterations.
Ruler of LondonNever heard of them.
You can look for casual jackets (not blazers, etc) which have strait cut quarters. Makes getting stuff shortened easier. You still need to pay attention to button placements as it can look odd if the buttons look too low.

Plus you'd have to look at any front patch pockets
They could be repositioned. But if you're looking to potentially buy something with experess idea to alter down the line, it makes sense to be picky. That was you can save some money and effort down the line.
im short
that makes perfect sense, thanks
ideally i would just buy stuff that fits but im having trouble finding stuff
