Carrie just emailed that it takes 18-20 GoldenDoodle puppies or four adult males to make one size 40 Battered Tan jacket. Peacoat is on the phone right now contacting kennels for cheaper prices.

Just make sure that you get a Golden Retriever male breeding with a white Poodle female rather than the other way around or you would end up with a PoodleSnoodle who wears undesirable tiny knitted dresses, booties and silly berets. No good for nothin even if they're battered.
Greetings Ky et al:
28.5" is a good length for 6'2" guys. You are the one who advised me years ago not to go too long with mine, which advice I followed.Oh yeah...blame it on me Fanch.. I'm going with 28 1/2" on body length as well.
The actual measurements are much more important than the tag size and if the numbers look right to you then their is a good chance that it will fit how you want. Having said that though, there are some cases where two jackets with the same measurements will fit very differently. High armholes, action back (or lack thereof), side laces, etc. are all factors that have a significant effect on how a jacket fits.Hey threaders, I found a used wayfarer with my exact measurements size 38. But Carrie said that since I am a 38 highwayman, I would be a 40 or 42 in the wayfarer. Is it possible this one would fit even though a 38? Or even if numbers match me, fit may be off, or maybe too tight?
Just wondering if a jacket could be too small, even if all the measures are correct.
agreed, I have asked for specific fit pics and measure pics to try to get all the info. would hate to have it be small, but if it's perfect....love itThe actual measurements are much more important than the tag size and if the numbers look right to you then their is a good chance that it will fit how you want.

I agree with PN that I have regretted it when I failed to heed Carrie's advice. I also like his suggestion to double check the numbers and how the measurements were made. The Wayfarer is a beautiful jacket and I would be tempted too if one appeared in my size!
I am 6'1 200, trim build, 40 teamster. It is a touch large in chest, but can layer that way. my 38 highwayman fits like a glove, but cannot layer as well. that is how I wanted them to be.I was ordering a size 40 teamster. I am 6'2" 185 ibs. However Carrie suggested that I might have a better fit with a size 38 in this style. So I sent to Thurston Bros my size 40 Aero Stuart this morning that fits me well for them to measure to get the best fit for me with the Teamster sizing. I appreciate this option and one reason I went with Thurston Bros.
