Friend gave me this jacket. Not exactly the style for everyone. But when you live in New England and spend a lot of time removing snow, it's what you want/need! But you have to give props to a piece that's 60+ years old (as near as I can tell). H.W.Carters & Sons is an old school New England (New Hampshire) brand.  |

I know it's probably the picture, but are the sleeves short?

Not bad at all.
I think there are more than a few "hipsters" where I live that would enjoy that very much.
I don't feel like I would wear it because it's a piece that the younger crowd would be wearing.

Out in a 20 degree wind blown day, it'll fit right in no matter who's wearing it. |

I can totally see this pairing nicely with any Patriots while tailgating in Foxboro.
