Treat yourself!

The quality of the workmanship is superb, these items are basicaly free, you can't make them at this price. Trust me, I am a costumier with 30 years of experience. If you don't like the stitched in waist belt it will take you all of 30 seconds to liberate it. The fit favours those of a more ample midrif so if you are of a more sveldt build you may need to adjust the fit. Buy one, you won't be disappointed (measure yourself properly, and tell the truth!)
Here we go again.

I found the shoulder length to be too large. The shoulder straps hung beyond my shoulders down onto the arm.

The khaki Brit officer's coat I got (the size 44) was too big across the shoulders. This was returned to the California address and another sent PDQ. This size 42 fits better but I find the shoulders are still a bit too wide and the cloth waist belt is also far too long for the size of coat. The buckle end needs to be 2 1/2" shorter while the other end of the belt with the three sets of holes needs to be 3" shorter.
Service was great and delivery remarkable speedy.
