I just got mine from France of all places. WPG was out of stock and I nailed mine on ebay for $80 including air mail from France. Fit is perfect for me, I'm 5'11" and 200lbs with a barrel chest, I normally wear a 44R Jacket. This WPG tanker is tagged size "small" so I was skeptical but seller gave good measurements and I took a chance. Perfectly proportioned for me and I have room for a medium weight sweater. The material is substantial and all the stitching and workmanship seems top notch. My only criticism is the flimsy YKK zipper... it looks like something off a modern baseball jacket. Would have liked to see a more substantial Conmar or Talon. If this jacket is any indication then I suggest going one size down.

Read reviews and ordered a large where I would usually order an XL. Fit is fine but note their is no stretch to the bottom of the jacket. Lot of comment about color and I think if you just throw it in a mud hole and drive your car over it for a month and let it dry out. Then beat it with a stick and put it on it will be accurate. Don't wash it!! Then you will be authentic after about 4-5 months of daily wear.

Tanker jacket is real deal. It is stiff, heavy, thick, substantial. By stiff, I mean it has not been "stone washed," pre-softened, or any of that stuff they do to clothes now. It feels like it will last forever. It feels like something supply sgt threw at me as I was being issued uniforms. In 1983 I got US Cavalry tanker jacket on the day I graduated. That was a cheap civilian jacket. My new one seems like something in pristine condition from 1943. Sizing: I am 5'9, 200. No, I did not look like that in '83. On me, a Medium is plenty roomy, a good fit. I can wear GI sweater under it. The medium on me fits a good bit larger than Brad Pitt's bespoke model, if we were to use his fit as a reference. I would not want mine nearly as tight as the one Pitt wears. Great piece of work, WPG. Thanks.
