: : : About a week ago, I placed an order for a Wested Raiders Jacket. I gave Peter via e-mail various measurements: chest, length, height, and neck size. However, after reading the FAQ at Indy Gear, I am concerned if I should have ordered a slightly larger chest size. Has anyone been pleased with the fit of their jacket by giving actual measurements?

: : : BTW: I do not plan on wearing heavy clothing underneath the jacket.

You didn't say how you were built, but I'm on the leaner side. I gave my measurements to Wested and I'm pretty pleased. The only thing I didn't like, and this isn't Wested's fault, is that it's a little too loose when I where just a t-shirt or short sleeve shirt. I had mine altered.

: : : Your comments are appreciated.

: : : Thanks,

: : Hi Chris,

: : I gave Wested my actual measurements, and I am pleased with the fit of my jacket. There is room to wear a sweater or layered shirts, but is not so loose as to look baggy or too big . I hadn't planned on needing extra room, but it was nice that it was there. The only problem I had was the sleeves came a little too long. So far the jacket has been plenty warm enough with just my Filson feather cloth shirt or a t-shirt, although I'm curious how it'll do this winter.

: : Hope this helps,

: Like John, I gave them my actual measurements. My Raiders jacket fits great. I could wear a sweatshirt beneath if I ever needed to. Basically, dito what John said. I think your jacket will fit fine.
: See ya! DeWayne
