I check the length by comparing it to the sleeve as well. It's about the only thing you can use in a photo for reference.

Now that you point it out, the Czech jacket is right over left, at least in the pic. Hmmm. Glad you caught that...I was just about to place an order. Might have to investigate this first. Thanks for the heads-up.
