    Standard length seems to be mid calf from most places. I'll make them custom length. Actually, completely custom. Seems from an older thread, some guys may prefer them to be somewhat shorter, maybe at the kilt-line, maybe just slightly longer.

    December in Georgia cool?

    the basis for my request is usability in the wilds of the forests. While I would love one for formal occasions, actual functionality in a storm is what I'm looking for.

    can you post a pic of what your design will look like? maybe a pattern or image of one similar to what you are making?

    For me, I would say definitely in black, and given a likely move back south, in the lighter weight.

    That thing looks pretty cool. you aren't shipping the old guy with the cape, are you? He looks pretty attached to it.

    Basically all it is, is a greatcoat, without sleeves and a slightly ovoid cape added on. Nuttin' to it.

    If you want to steal the old bugger from that manufacturer, he's all yours. Might have to beat him with a shillelegh(sp?).
