Size 40 or size 40?

Q. If I wear 40R Raiders Wested will the TOD NH Wested fit me normally?

Any answers will be appreciated. Especially KT's

I would take care. The sample jacket is very slim fitted. I got to wear it again recently, zipped up it fits like my size 38. I have ordered it in a 41.

Sorry about the weird pose, that pic was taken during the squirrilage debate and the background was so messy I had to remove it! It is my 38 Raiders, which seems to be an 80's fit.

Platon,

I'm curious about this as well! I'm also a size 40. I ordered a size 40 for my NH ToD jacket. We'll see when it arrives. As my Wested Raiders has a little bit of room, I'm hoping the ToD has a more snug fit.

Kind regards,
Craig

I got a 40R and it is kind of on the smaller side, about like a Todd's standard large. I would suggest if you wear a 40 maybe a 42 would be better. I actually ordered an off the rack 44 washed lamb after I got the custom 40R novapelle. THe 44 was a bit large but I ordered large on purpose since I intended to soak it in water and run it through the dryer. Now it fits even better than the novapelle. Maybe it's the equivalent to one of Wested's 42's after shrinkage.
