In channeling my best Col. Nicholson, I picked up this bush jacket since I've always found WPG's items to be well made. I am of average build and wear a 42R. I followed WPG's recommendation to size up and went with a 44R. The jacket is made of a heavy weight cotton twill fabric. The coat is well constructed with excellent details. The belt buckle is thin stamped metal and the only real negative. But it is buttoned in and easily replaced. I am using a leather Sam Browne belt, so I did not even bother with it. The 44R was really big on me and I thought about returning it. But the shoulders seemed good so I washed the jacket in warm water followed by a medium tumble dry. The jacket shrank down to a near perfect fit. All in all, an excellent jacket and a tremendous value. Just be aware of the right size for you.

Nice Bush Jacket
(2021-07-13)
I received my bush jacket with the usual speedy delivery by WPG. After a quick wash, I can tell that it's going to break-in nicely and be very comfortable. One quibble--the belt-retaining loops seem a bit too low, and the snaps on the belt don't stay snapped (not a big concern, as I don't plan on using the belt).

Very glad with this jacket,but really strange dimensions... Shoulder's fitting ok,but the belly size is 5 or 6 more sizes! I had to cut and sew.
