Well, today my cassock finally arrived from Istok.net. Apparently they've had a huge increase in tailoring orders over the past year, enough so that they put a disclaimer on their site about a month ago.
Over all it fits well, though the collar is considerably larger than expected. I guess this is good in case I ever gain gobs and gobs of weight. It is good to have a cassock of my own, rather than continually borrowing someone else's. And I do prefer the Russian style (which is what I got) to the Romanian style (what I was borrowing). Plus, now I have something to be buried in. :-D
Pictures may follow at some point (of the cassock, not my burial, in sha' Allah).
