    Ok, here goes,



    now, this isn't great because its from my phone, AND its being uploaded through a windows 98 machine...

    real pics shortly.

    and, I am so very very very happy. it fits perfect, I am plump enough to be able to wear it at my naval and at my hipbone both comfortably and well, its also cut to the top of my knee at the hipbone. I won't be taking it off even though its 38 deg out...


    Oh yeah, its a Tan Original.

    Looks good.
