What length is best for a suite jacket?

I am not sure which length is best. I was looking at a few suites and some are short and some are longer. I need a suite for this formal thing for my father'ss buisness. I am trying to figure out the best length for my height (5'9).

Take ur butt to a Men's Suit store asap and get measured. Don't skimp on that very important process so you can get an idea of what fit feels and looks best. Once you get your measurements, run with it.

I agree about going to a suit shop. Most will measure you without you having to make a purchase. Everyone is different. If you are slender, you can get away with short ones, but if you have bulk in your arms and shoulder, this will raise the jacket up too much.

This. I tried buying suites in the past without knowing my measurements and it is a waste of time and money.
