Hello folks!
I have a "small" predicament (Bad pun. No more! I promise!).
The impression I get from the examination of web pages like At The Front and Hessen Antique is that the majority of the re-enacting community is made up of larger folks. By that I don't mean overweight people, but people of average build. Most uniforms come in anything from 38 all the way up to a grand 55. My problem is that I am at quite the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm of average height, being about 5'8 or 5'9, but I'm incredibly slim and at the largest I wear a size 36. I have a Swiss tunic that I bought for winter wear in that size and wearing a sweater and a teeshirt underneath, I still have a good inch or half inch of moving space inside of it (not that that is undesirable, it doesn't look huge on me and offers excellent mobility).
I have seen 36s on ATF (not to mention their glorious (and costly) texled uniforms) and Hessen Antique (To name a couple sellers of the higher quality uniforms) and have absolutely scoured the Chinese sellers finding nothing larger than a 38 on thier webpages (Further confirming my suspictions about the height and build of the community).
I was wondering if any of you here on Warrelics knew of any sellers that regularly held a stock of small sizes between 34-36?
