I got up at 7.30, had a shower, got dressed, and had breakfast. It was a cold morning so I put on my overcoat and left home about 8.20. When I got to work I took off my coat and hung it up behind the door. It was hot in the office, so I took my jacket off as well. During my lunchbreak I had a look round the shops. I saw a nice jacket in one shop and tried it on, but it didn't fit me - it was too small and they didn't have a bigger size.

Too small and not long enough

The man is wearing a suit, but it doesn't fit him very well: the jacket is too small (= not big enough); the trousers are too short (= not long enough).
