    Frickin' FedEx…

    They don't have as good of a delivery system as DPD or UPS, which both give a 1-hour window when they expect to deliver. Maybe the guy hates his route or something, lol! Our DPD guy leaves the delivery attempt slip with his cellphone number on it, so you can reach him directly for a re-delivery attempt if he has time.

    This is the third day in a row that Maddy has missed the package on account of walking the dog. The only notification they send out is a generic "You package will be delivered by 1800", with no detailed tracking available on the website.

      FedEx for us in UK is history… Sorry that you were the guinea pig

        I knew what I was signing up for, lol!

        I would much rather it be me, than someone else.

          DHL does the same thing. They provide you with a generic, "your package will be delivered by end of day," message with zero detailed tracking other than "your package is out for delivery."  At least UPS and USPS provide some reliability. Anyway, hope you get the jacket

                Take these numbers with a grain of salt, folks.

                I'm not a qualified measure-ologist, lol! Also, keep in mind that the jacket will get washed along the way, so there could likely be some shrinkage, though in my experience with my brown 816's, the whipcord does stretch some.

                Shoulders: 18"

                Length: 24.5"

                  Oof that's not going to get buttoned up on me…. 😉 😉 😉

                    Yeah, it was bothersome.

                    They ended up coming by again and as they were about to buzz our flat, my neighbor was walking in the foyer and signed for it for me.

                      Alls well that ends well. DPD will be the leading UK courier from now on though..

                      Looking forward to seeing the upgrades…

                        Wear it unbuttoned…

                        ***How about a "Stubborn Crew" leg, rather than a Giles leg? Pass it back and forth between whoever there can squeeze in to it.

                          @AdamC may well be up for it. Will try a large later

                            I'll squeeze into it at least once, just so that I can put a patch on it….

                                It doesn't look like its meant to be for me, the large I tried here and its far too tight, I wouldn't want to do this awesome jacket a disservice!

                                I can always try the tour jacket on at Fish & Chips to see if there is any variation!
