I'm not exactly sure how the "high" comes about; I just know that that produces a much better fit.

As to the length, the jacket should cover the sewn part of the pleats, and not much more. Maybe that would be about to your wrist. There are enough pics on the Forum to get a pretty good idea of the proper length. Check out any with the Duke of Rothesay ( Prince Charles ) in them.
