Still no shirt, though they said it would be here today. Which is why I payed them an extra 40 bucks. No tracking info to check, and since they never answer their phones or emails on the weekends, it seems I'm out of luck.

I've gone from kind of angry to really quite angry.

No expert on Indy stuff, but it might have been a good idea to have gotten something easy like a Cabelas safari shirt when you thought there might have been a problem getting the Todd's in time. Wouldn't be perfect, but if you don't have anything else... Plus it would have been not much more than t...

LL Bean pants

I have a pair of Wested pants coming with my jacket, but since Wested is a bit spotty with their deliveries and I don't know if I'll have the pants in time for when I need them, I've been looking at the LL Bean options as an emergency buy. The two options I've seen on here are the microfibers in tau...

This really isn't good news for me. I need a shirt for an event at my work the 26th, and so I ordered a medium Todds at the end of May (My chest size is a 37.5). He didn't have any mediums or larges, so he's sending me a large WPG to meet the deadline.

From the looks of it, I'm screwed :/

It really is sort of a personal preference at this point, especially because the bag color seems to vary from scene to scene.

I ordered a medium, but I think Todd said in another thread the shirts would be coming mid July. I hope this is the case, or sooner-- I need mine for an event at my work by July 24th, and if it doesn't show up around then I'm going to have to get one from someone else and rush it. :(

Gulbelt size?

I havent found anything definitive through searching, so I thought I'd ask here what would be an accurate gunbelt size for either Todd's or Lee Keppler's if my waist size is 32. I recently received a gunbelt today, size 36, and I'm wearing it on the last hole.

Thanks,
