Before this gets too much out of hand I should probably give you an update. Everyone I showed it for kept telling me it was too small for me, so in the end... I sent it back anyway.

Stitches coming loose

Hello everyone. I'm sorry, I know this isn't a question related to the Indy jacket, but it is related to another jacket made by wested. Normally I would ask them directly, but as it is friday, I figure I wouldn't get an answer until monday (if ever, if my experiance is anything to go by). I received...

I sent Wested an email some months ago, asking about a jacket I wanted to have made, but I never got a response. Now winter is basically over here, so I guess I have to wait a year to get that particular jacket. Which is a shame because I really wanted it. I sent them another email a couple of days ...

I've just come back from my trip, and I must say that the hat worked like a charm. As this was the first time I had ever worn the hat, I can't really say what it would have been like if I had kept the plastic capped liner, but I am not sad I removed it.

I'll be going to eastern Turkey tomorrow, and from what I have heard, I can expect temperatures around 40 degrees celsius (104 degrees fahrenheit, I think). Now, should I just get on with it and remove that plastic capped liner, or should I wait until I get down there, and see how it turns out?

When I bought my shirt I asked them about the sizing and this is what they wrote:
The shirts are sized Small (36/38 ), Medium (40/42” 102/107cm), Large (44” 112cm)), XL (46” 117cm) and XXL (48” 122cm) so just decide which is best for you.
