did you ever get this suit and if so do you have photos/measurements
Sorry, I thought I had edited my post to mention that it had arrived but I guess not. I received the suit on Jan 4th, so it was just shy of 2 months of waiting.

The lighting in my photos does not do it justice - it looks absolutely amazing in person and I'm very pleased with it.

As for measurements, I'll stress that this was an overstock item, meaning it wasn't tailor made for me like their normal suits are. For reference I'm 5'8", 150~lbs. At the time I ordered they had 3 suits in overstock, each had their own unique list of dimensions. I quickly compared them to my existing suit (a CWU-27/p size 42R), measuring the suit itself rather than my body, and based on those measurements I felt that two of the overstock suits were good candidates for me. They had a Tan Herringbone one available that was almost exactly the same dimensions as my existing suit, but since I already had a tan uniform that I am more than happy with, I wound up going for the Charcoal Grey Duck Cotton suit that I always wanted (but was a bit more of a gamble when it came to its listed dimensions as you'll see below).

Compared to my existing uniform, it was listed as being a little wider in the shoulders and longer in the arms but not to an excessive amount (I don't mind these uniforms being a bit bigger anyway since a little bagginess helps the look, and the sleeves on my other uniform do feel a little short). The waist is a little narrower but still fits just fine (it just means I don't have to use the velcro adjusters to bring it in). The biggest gamble was in the legs, as they were listed as being several inches shorter. I figured since the torso was a bit longer and I like to blouse my legs into my boots then it should be fine (and worth the risk due to the reduced price and waiting time). Luckily I was right.

Lastly, name tags and hose connectors were not included with this item (I'm not sure if that's a Charcoal Grey Duck Cotton suit thing or just part of the original overstock order).

Does it have a slight blue to it? It kinda looks like it to me (as it should)
