Thank you all for the responses. I'll work at getting some pics up this weekend.

Any suggestions on what type of hat brush to purchase? I've seen the Sarah's AB Hatboxes - a good buy?

Recently received my Raiders, Beaver AB Fedora from Mr. Delk. This is my first Fedora and it is a work of art. I've been wanting one for so long and now I don't want to wear it and mar its beauty, but in time I shall break it in like I did my Wested. I now have a TOD Lambskin Wested, Alden 405 boots...

Would it be appropriate to post a couple of pics of me wearing the jacket just to get some feedback from the group? All of your comments are appropriate and make sense.

I've loved my jacket and it has served me well, but am thinking about adding to my collection.

Several years back, I had a random person comment on my Wested. He asked if it was a Wested, I replied, "yes," and he mentioned he had left his in the car. What a shame. He should have been wearing it too. As I recall, it was a brisk autumn night in Pasadena...

I have an older Wested TOD that was custom sized, but have recently felt it is too short. The back falls about an inch below the top of my pants, maybe slightly longer. It's about 26" in length. Is there a rule of thumb as to the length the jacket should be?
