The Invertere raincoat posted by RJman, from seller Valerie Wafer, will probably be heavier and have a more pronounced twill that you might expect (it looks just like the fabric on a raincoat I bought from her). The size is probably closer to a 42 than 40. It won't be a form-fitting coat by any means but it won't give out on you for a long time.

But...but...it's a good deal! Spoo said so! How about these "Mint" Peals, "in absolute superb condition (stamp on inside of shoe has faded...but visible) and more importantly, the uppers are perfect and bear no scuffs, scratches,etc." http://cgi.ebay.com/MINT-Peal-Brooks...item20b6cdcb74

Those are a prime example of why I'm hesitant to get any wholecuts. Maybe they just never saw shoe trees, but no way I'd call those "mint"...

wholecuts are really nice...the seller is really bad, don't let a bad seller deter you...actually, on second thought, let them deter you...it'll leave more for me
