What Price Glory “Deluxe” Jacket or other advice

Post by ijq8 »

I’m in the market for a new jacket and have been considering several options (hence my recent other posts). I’m considering Wested Legacy, Wested OTR, Todd’s, Magnoli WL, and WPG (S&J, while superb also have an extensive lead time). Anyway, I cannot find much info on the WPG offering. Anyone have any experience? I’m not so much looking for 100% screen accuracy but something that won’t break the bank or fit me like a bag. Generally, I can wear OTR Large sizes (42-43 chest, 6’1”, 195lbs, and I’m hoping to have a back length around 27” or so…I don’t like untucked Ts and sweaters to protrude).
Appreciate the help.

Todd's may be your best bet on good looks, price and availability. But if you can wait or pay a bit more I would go with either Wested or S&J...

Do you know anything about the quality of the new Todd's jackets? Are they well-made, or do they look like rush jobs?

The What Price Glory Jacket has a back that, to me, looks like the US Wings jackets. I didn't like it. The back panel seems too tapered. And the pockets look big, like the US Wings jackets. I didn't like that part, either. But, its probably put together well.
