Heads Up: Denim Tank Suit news

[Jordan Baker]

I picked up one of these suits from Jim last week. I’m very happy with it. The fabric is great. The stitching is pretty good. I went with the 3XL as a Jim recommended going one size larger. I have to say though that what the advertised size is sure isn’t what the fit is.

The size on the label was

Size 7/ 3XL
height 6’3” - 6’4”
Breast 54”-56”
Waist 48”-50”
Leg seam 31”

I’m 6’2” with a 50” chest and a 40” waist

I found the suit a very good fit. So just be aware that his stuff is smaller then what the label says. The leg inseam was bang on though.

I did find the metal collar tabs could be stitched on better. There is minimal thread holding them on and the seam has been left open. It’s no biggie as it’s simple to hand stitch them closed. The suit comes with dark green plastic buttons. They are quite functional although I’m not sure how close to the originals they are.

Overall I’m very very happy to now have this in my vehicle wardrobe for events. I’ve also got the Pixie Suit that was made last year. I’d like to publicly thank Jim for stepping forward and actually making this happen along with Ifran. It’s nice to finally have quality and accurate period British Commonwealth clothing
