Wested Shirt and Pants--sizing help please.

Post by Falstaff »

Although I've already got my MBA Indy shirt and pants, I've been itching to get a set of what Wested's offering. I have a large size MBA shirt and was wondering how the Wested one fits in comparison. Can anyone give me their opionion? Also, how do the pants fit? I've e-mailed Wested asking about the pants sizes, but haven't yet heard anything. Can anyone tell me want waist size and inseam length they come in?

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.
Hope it helps

That's very helpful stuff, Indiana Jarmyr.
I wish I'd known that when I ordered- I don't think it's on their website. I'm a 38 in shirts, my Medium shirt tends to puff out a bit.

Falstaff, I emailed Wested some time ago and didn't get a response either. I was wondering if anyone knew whether the latest shirts have the more accurate pocket flaps.

I am glad if I can be of some help.
I can't remember for sure how long the medium sleeves are (that is the size I chose), but I think they said something about 24 inch. If that is too short, they could get longer sleeves for you, but I think they said they would have to make a special order in that case, and that could take some extra time.

Neo,

I ordered two shirts at different times last year and they both came with the more accurate pocket flaps.

Thanks, mate. I just couldn't remember what was going on with them! :-)

Well, thanks for everyones help. I just placed my order and will be sure to post my comments when the shirt and pants arrive. I also plan to compare my old MBA clothes to the new Wested ones.

Ever forward.

I had ordered 2 sets of pants and shirts of NH. The shirts are a size large and they are a hair too small for me. I will never be able to button the top button, so a tie is out of the question. I had ordered 4 sets of pants and shirts from Wested and the shirts fit the same as the NH shirt. I'm sending everything back because the sizes are too small. I have a 17" neck and the lagre is not large enough. I hope this helps! :)

Thanks for the info. My Noel Howard shirt just fine, so I'm glad that it has a similar fit to the one offered by Wested. Hopefully I'll have similar luck with the pants.
