    Yah, I'm 5 11 210 and it's big on me. I must have hit the wrong key when I ordered it, the other odds and ends are fine. It will fit Rob, so anyone who knows Rob now has a clear idea how big it is. As soon as I find a working camera I'll have a photo up here, with me in it. Somewhere.

    You realize there are probably only about 4 men in the hobby that fit this definition of tall, right? And that three of them have retired from reenacting?

    Before he rolled his big ol truck end over end over end in the Minnesoda ice last year, he was MUCH taller.

    Now he's just under 6' 7" and takes a size 48 coat. At least I think that's what was the consensus was on the last custom drafted coat made for our favorite freak of nature.
