Im currently needing a new weskit, and I've decided to make my own. Where can I find a weskit pattern for a larger man, say size 3XL?

Northwest Traders has one that goes to a size 50 (chest measurement). If it still needs to be larger, each size is exactly a 5/8" seam larger. Take the pattern, lay it on paper and add the extra on all the sides except the length. Check the center back legth on your person before adding there.

Hey thanks Matt'sGirl. I'm sorry I hadnt posted sooner, but I've been kinda busy. I got a bit discouraged and went ahead and ordered a custom from Fort Downing. Mrs. Sanders said she could fit me up pretty good.

Frances does excellent work. You will be pleased with your purchase. She also makes some great knee breeches. When you speak to her, tell her "Toni" said hi.

Yeah that she does...I own a pair of fly front breeches she made. I've tried to kill'em but they aint gonna let up. I met her at Martin's Station back in the spring. A few, probably close to everybody I talked to, recomended her for period clothing. I drove her nuts I think trying to get my measurements right LOL.
Highlander BTW Matt builds a fine rifle. A friend of mine from KY has to order one every year I think LOL. I know of at least 3 he owns. |
