You just have to remember that it is more of a shell than anything. When it gets real cold just put a sweater under it and you'll be fine. At least thats my experience.

erri,
You are going to get a lot of positive comments on that jacket in Florence. It will be fine for a Tuscan winter and for hunting truffles up in the hills, leasurely strolls along the Arno and shopping at Ponte Vecchio.
Good luck and enjoy!

Careful my friend
you start with the jacket and you end spending all your savings

Dear Gemma
The Wested with order number ee828118749gb is to be sent to another adress, namely this one in Sweden:
That's great Erri! Don't knock too many things over in the final waiting stage.

That's not the order number, it's the tracking number. Besides, erri's jacket is way too small for a yeti like you.

It has snowed twice in Boston already. It looks like it is going to be a cold, dark, lonely winter!

We have had about four downfalls and the equal amount of thaws already with temperatures ranging from -15C (5F) to now being around +10C (50F).
Weird and unusual weather if you ask me. Has someone been fiddling around in the boiler room again?
It just means I can use my Wested a little while longer I guess.

Mine only took 3 weeks to get here but if its any consolation, I cant truly enjoy mine till Christmas.I hope you get your jacket soon.

Super erri,
I hope you enjoy your things very much. I just wrote Genna about purchasing just the shirt and pants. She is very nice. I just don't have the funds. Seems great till you do the conversion to dollars from pounds sterling!
I understand you are a med. student. How wonderful. My son-in-law is a geriatric psychiatrist in Austin, Texas. I could use him!
Too bad he can't treat family.
I'm self diagnosed anyway and self medicated. Obsessive for adult toys (Indianajoneous Toysforme) and the Rx is New Toys, OD, by mail!
Wear your new items in good health,
