Thanks for the photos and the great review. Great fit on you for sure. I had toyed with the idea over a US Wings before the used G+B I bought...seems like the Medium like you have...would have been right for me. But I am 5'7" with short legs and that 27.25+" back length would put the jacke...

No pictures. I wonder if it was an add on piece someone added to hold the strap tighter. The 2 black sliders are still there but sitting on the bottom of it all. I was looking at Rundquist's photos where he compares it to a US Wings and while both of his sliders appear to be silver there also only a...

I am a bit puzzled on how to physically move the leather in the Expedition side straps. There are the 2 black square rings and there is a silver square ring. It seems like the black rings do nothing but give a path for the belt to go through and the silver locks it down. But the leather is so tight ...

VERY HELPFUL EVERYONE. This sounds a bit more positive because the jacket seems to be behaving and fitting somewhat like it should. I was in the store earlier and looked in the mirror and saw the fall off and thought it had an Indy vibe for sure. It is a weird feeling of the collar not staying flat ...

I used Lexol cleaner and separate conditioner last night and the jacket looks much better. The grayish cast/dryness in the pleats and gussets are gone so it looks much richer. As I wore it last night and on the way to work this morning I really think it comes down to shoulder fit. Like Texan Scott's...

Still measure 38" though I measure that at the center of the chest than slightly smaller right under my arms and smaller at the lower sternum?? I do hit 39" at my bellybutton yet I still feel there is room at my belly despite being slightly wider than my chest. That's kind of evident in th...

I appreciate all the feedback. I posted pretty soon after receiving the jacket. I knew it was a snug fit on a 41 chest from the previous owner so I figured it would still feel pretty loose on a 38 chest. So, Do all Indy jackets get tighter in the chest as you zip them? That might be what is really b...

Rc. It doesn't seem too tight under the arms zipped up. It is a really close to the armpit fit and feels a bit funny but not anything that has been obvious to me. I do however feel the back strap that holds the pleat closed running against my upper back even with the jacket zipped 1/2 way. Is that j...

This is actually one of the pre-mods from what 6 or7 years ago. Turns out I will be like the 5th owner. So perhaps back then when they made a 40 they cut it for 44" instead the 46"-50"???they might be cutting now. I was reading that a size 42 Expedition measures 25" pit to pit wh...

Hello everyone. I had the bug and bought used a G&B Expedition from a forum member. He was very helpful in explaining how this jacket fits on him plus I was able to see photos of the jacket on a previous owner who posted them here. I originally bought a small bomber at Jos. A Bank but it was 23....

Thanks for the initial replies. G+B said she would probably put me in a 40 but also said that they might allot for 10" of wiggle room which sounds like a huge amount. I do have smaller shoulders and short arms though. I feel a bit silly because I haven't been measured for a suit for 5 years and...

Hello everyone. I am looking for an Indy style jacket and trying to find the right size for a fall/spring jacket for the New England seasons. I would wear a sweatshirt in the fall/spring and just a polo/tshirt on cool summer nights. I am leaning towards the Expedition right now and just need to figu...
