I have a similar shape. Currently 34" waist, 41" hips, hopefully in a year it'll be more like 32/39 but the ratio remains.

Do any hip-endowed Stillwater customers have experience/advice to offer?

I have a SWK economy, which looks like it will work out fine as the fell is not stitched down. I'm contemplating sewing it by hand to give a little taper.

The Hunting McLeod SWK standard has been calling to me, though. Wonder whether I could get into it without heavy tailoring? The photos make the SWK standard and heavyweight look as though they are cut for someone a lot more tubular than I am.

I did email SWK, and Jerry replied within about 10 milleseconds. But he didn't say exactly what kind of ratio their target is, just might be a problem and I could try one on their usual terms. Which is a great deal; I'm impressed enough with the economy to give it a shot...

I'm taking that excellent advice: I should be in Rocky's waiting list.
