Ok.. I'm bummed.. The jacket came in and was considerably too small..
I've never seen a size 42 jacket this small before.
Thinking about listing it on eBay or giving it to my son for his birthday..
Back to the drawing board regarding an Indy jacket.

That's too bad.
What are the dimensions on it? I wonder if they maybe they mixed it up with another.
Have you contacted Wested?

That's a real bummer dude. Especially since you're just starting your gear. Just curious, how did it fit exactly? Too short in the arm length, too tight on the shoulders, sat too high above the waist? Or was it all of those?

I'm surprised it didn't fit. Some people tend to actually order down a size when it comes to the Hero jacket.

Yes, I am curios about this too..
the wested hero is a weird quirky pattern. IMO they should warn the customer about this. Did they?
The hero has small armholes, tighter chest. Wider shoulders that drops back.
It's not your typical fitting size.

It sounds like he bought it from another member. Wested does warn customers about this pattern on their blog. They definitely try to steer customers away from it, unless they're weird like us.
