I guess that would've been the obvious place to look.... thanks Garth.

Garth is on the money, as usual. I spoke with a Mary at Gerry Davis. As she instructed, I printed the measurement sheet and had myself measured with my West Vest Original and My Honig's K-1. I sent it in the measurement sheet with a check and four and one half weeks later (today), I got my coat. Don't delay, order yours today. I got my number sewed on the right sleeve through the lining. It is fully lined. The material is a nylon gabardine twill weave. The outside ball pockets have hidden bellows in the bottom and side. There are two inside breast pockets that are very deep. I am also an assistant coach for our football team and our head coach, a coaching legend here in KY, saw me trying it on again after school. He used to umpire twenty plus years ago and he said it looked like the best he had seen. Really professional and classy. I hope so.

You took your plate coat to school?

I have all of my deliveries sent to school so they do not get left in the rain, left out to get stolen, save me a trip to UPS depot, etc. They just bring stuff right to my classroom. I also run a school store in conjunction with my Sports Marketing class. So packages get delivered to me all of the time. I umpire in a different region than where I teach. Our baseball athletes are keenly interested in my assessments of other teams in the region where I umpire because they usually meet in the sectionals to determine who goes to the state tournament.
