That’s an excellent point @bbtns
I did just snag one of their Henley thermals in medium and it fits perfect for how I like em. Not really the same as a full on shirt but perhaps some type of barometer.
Yes, I think if you give this as a reference point the crew will be able to size you correct for the jacket.

What can people tell me about how much sleeve length I can really expect to lose to stacking on a Wills? My arms are proportionally short compared to my chest and shoulders, so I need an XL to be able to wear anything other than a t-shirt under it. I'm in G16 for delivery next year, but want to dial in my measurements. I'm definitely getting it shortened to a length I know will work for me, but I'm a little stuck on the sleeves. Thanks!

@Paul9221 similar to you with the weight loss in that I’m down from 175 to 155…. do you feel you could size down to the small now or still happy w the medium?
-
I grabbed one last night. I’m excited for it, I’m a pretty big fan of vests and I wear my wills all the time so it should be a win
-
I have the unlined wills as well as this new lined ramblin vest. I love my wills and will not be upgrading, however if I had to choose between old design and new I would pick the new wills. The unlined waxed jacket feels wet anytime I wear it with just a t shirt until it warms up. Also, the double zipper is a big upgrade, anytime I sit I have to un-zip and then button up without the bottom button.

Thanks @Wormspice just the deets I was looking for. Just another 2.25 years and I’ll know what you’re talking about!!
-
Finally bit the bullet and put down a deposit for a Wills. Not sure why I waited so long, but I’ll be waiting until August of 2025 to find out what all the hype is about!
-
@nrtphotos I've got one for OCT'23–I'm so curious to see if It lives up to the hype. I hope so

Hey Bren, totally missed this. So sorry!
Medium is absolutely perfect for me. I can wear it over a T, or over a light sweater or UHF. I think small MIGHT work over a T, but it would probably be tight.
The Wills was my one jacket when I went up to the San Francisco area for Thanksgiving. Absolutely love it!

Finally got my confirmation!
Looks like my Wills is going to be completed a couple months early
EDIT*
Here is my complete Ship John collection. Mostly hats until the Wills arrives

They emailed me Friday and said it will be ready in 6-8 weeks.
Which puts it near February. With time left to wear it before summer!I’m Group 14 which was initially for April 2023.

@Danimal506 Sweet–I'm G20 so, hopefully, I'll receive a similar email down the road!
