I agree with all the good comments The best combination of a Thedi jacket and fit I have seen
Did you just order a stock size? Theodoros was very communicative regarding sizing and dimensions when I ordered directly from him. I would send him an email just to double check.Well now that's a really nice color and that hide looks fantastic. The fit on the torso, jacket length, tapered sleeves and overall fit looks great!
I noticed Thedi likes to make the sleeves on the shorter side and I hope mine is a little longer than that. I'm still a little weary about the order I made since Theodoros didn't really get into details about the measurements
Nothing to say. Perfect. Truly this is your best fit jacket.This just arrived a couple of hours ago. I don’t even know what to say. Except maybe, everything I’ve been told about how awesome Thedi is, it’s true all of it.

I ordered back at the end of March sometime, so about 70 days waiting. The ordering process was pretty smooth, I sent him my measurements and he recommended a size. I only had some questions about how they size their jackets. Theodoros actually gave me a call and after a couple of minutes of talking to him I eventually placed my order.
I decided to go with the washed olive green goat. It is substantial and has a lot of character.
The fit and the pattern is the best I’ve ever had in any jacket, custom or vintage or off the rack. It’s tight but completely comfortable. It hugs my body and I have good range of motion.
Alright, on to the pics, this is how happy I am with my Thedi jacket:

please report back what he says and which measurements he gives if you can. A part of me would just want to trust him and see whether he makes something better fitting than I ever had before. What would you do if he came back at you with a shoulder or chest measurement that you feel is out of your 'preferred' range?I also ordered directly. I only gave Thedi my body measurements and I was told he would do the rest. I'll reach out to him to confirm. Thanks
Will do and good question as I pretty much know what my ideal measurements are by now. I hope he hasn't started working on my jacket already so i can have an idea to see if it will work out or not. if this was my 2nd jacket project with him I would have no reservation at all but I haven't really worn a Thedi so it's a little concerningplease report back what he says and which measurements he gives if you can.

+1I haven't heard many if any guys who have not been happy with a custom Thedi fit so I think you're in good hands with him even if you're giving him total free reign to size the jacket appropriately.
