Hi everyone! I'm new to the forums and wished I spent a little more time on here before purchasing my grail... the salesman recommended this size (38) base on the measurement I gave him, saying it is similar to his measurements.

The lining is a perfect reproduction of the loose, slubby weave of the original. All the hardware and trim has been painstakingly recreated to match the original as well, down to the cotton zipper tapes and cotton thread.” – Standard and Strange description
“The fit on this is quite slim, and horsehide will not stretch” …much***
Thanks for your time!
