I love Drew, but his current DR patterns don't taper at the waist. They taper all the way through to the hips, and the pattern can't be adjusted otherwise last I checked.

Not a fault, just something you have to take into account depending on your body type.

i don't understand this post, what do you mean it doesn't taper at the waist and tapers through to the hips? eh.gif

 

you can adjust the widths on the midsection/waist as you see fit...

Yeah, that. The hem has to be the narrowest part of the jacket, which isn't true of his original DR (or a lot of others on market). This can be problematic depending on body type or how low you want it to sit. I assume that's what he was asking about when he specifically mentioned a waist taper, since it's a concern a lot of people have when buying jackets cut slim.

Like I said, not a criticism, just something you have to take into account. I got another DR from him in calf with different measurements and it's far and away better. There should be a pic in the same gallery somewhere.

Not really.
Tried on the DSq and wasn't impressed.
Don't like built in hoods.
Cut/shape of the last one just doesn't seem right to me.
IMHO. . .

I love it, actually. redface.gif

For waist taper, Julius seems like an obvious suggestion.
