In a list of the features of a padded sleeveless jacket.
I have a picture of the jacket in question.
It has a full length zip front, a horizontal seam at the level of the diaphragm and two vertical seams in which you can see the pockets. Unfortunately, I cannot see the back of the garment.
Any ideas?

The link is completely the wrong one. Nice photo of Le Mans but nothing to do with shirt-tail shapes. Sorry about that!

Note from asker:
I can't see the image you put in the link. I just get homepage I think. Are you sure this can be applied to a padded sleeveless jacket, that looks fairly close fitting to me? |
OK - I understand now. It's because the hem is near semi-circular at the back. Thanks Emma! |
