Can anyone compare the actual fit of the WPG and Wested shirts? My WPG fits like a tent; although it's just a large, it seems to be made for someone 300 lbs. I had it tailored, but it's still way too big through the sleeves and looks really "blousy" all the time. Plus it's too short for someone 6'2". On the other hand, I really like the feel of the material -- it wrinkles up so nicely and looks really screen authentic.

Is the Wested a slimmer fit, and can anyone comment on the length for tall guys? How about the material? Is it as wrinkley and light as the WPG? (I have a Cabella's safari shirt that is too stiff and won't wrinkle... Don't like it!)

Thanks!

I ordered them both, they will arrive with the jacket.
I hope 32" is my waist size... or i'll have to send them back and wait till they get again 34"s that were out of stock
The Wested pants in 32 are "big" 32s, so dont worry that they wont fit.

I was hoping that the Wested pants don't run on the larger size, lol.

I was torn between the 32 and the 34 waist. A few folks that I talked to, including Gemma from Wested, mentioned that if you wear a size 32 or 34 that's exactly what you get...Then, I talked to a few folks who say that they tend to run on the smaller fitting. So, a size 33 waist probably would have been perfect. Hearing that they run on the smaller fitting, I went with the size 34 to be on the safe side instead of the 32 (prefering a rather looser fit than a tighter fit).

Now, I'm getting a lil' nervous with the wait :wink: ....

Also, I just checked my credit card info. The total cost is $112.79 for a pair of these pants :shock: . I have the cash here at home, but I thought that by using a credit card, it might speed up the ordering/shipping process and pay the pants off when my next statement arrives. Now, I'm "really" getting nervous to see how well they fit. Hopefully they won't be "too" baggy....

Best o' luck with your pants there Erri, and keep us updated on how things go on your end as well when your pants arrive! :D

Kind Regards,
Captain D

Well Capitan, i would have ordered a pair of 34" but they were out of stock and since i'm 33 and i didnt want to wait i went for a 32" :lol: hoping good :lol:

I don't think an inch more do a great difference and anyway you'll have to use your web belt as indygear require :lol: so it's not a big problem if it's slightly larger :wink:
