The website seems a bit of a mess. Is email the best way to communicate?

Last pics. Wested wrote back that they are "not allowed to tell you what size to buy as they are custom made." Seems kinda odd.

So here's a few pics of me wearing my current jacket and what the tape says. Thinking about ordering this one in the same size unless you see something off?

I like to use saddle soap to knock shine off leather.

I agree, plugged.

Looks fantastic. I'm going back and forth between this and a Wested in goat.
