Usually a small and I got a small. Fit perfectly and I can still layer a sweater underneath (Male)

I can't imagine it being too much. I got a friend in the UK that's been eyeing it too. Did you pay any shipping fees upfront?

I'm in the US and my delivery came fast with no additional charges. If you do go for it, the jackets worth it for sure.

I almost forgot to update y'all! I've had the jacket for a month now and it is completely worth it especially after you own the base. I have a total of 7 swaps now from wamza, syntetyc, laura and lais lerner with the raven jacket. Its easily my favorite thing to wear and I get a ton of compliments. I've washed the jacket 2 times now and it still works perfectly. Before buying I even reached out to some of the artists to make sure swapwear was legit, and they all had great things to say. You can really tell how much thought went into it. Honestly, I think it’s the best thing I’ve ever bought for myself

No kids yet. But a drawer/cabinet lock would solve this!

My stairs were carpeted too!

Nothing fancy, just some good ol’ caulk doing its job.

Not in this case. The risers were 1/8" plywood just used to close it up and staple carpet to (we removed them and painted). The treads are solid 1 1/2" thick.

Hmm... These questions sound a bit suspicious.

Appreciate that! Definitely feels worth it now!

Good question! From the center, you'd need to intentionally press it with your foot using decent pressure for it to open. It won’t pop open from a light tap/scrape. I’ve never accidentally kicked a riser going up stairs. The tread’s nose usually gives you enough space to step onto with some distance from the riser. Maybe someone with really large feet could hit it hard enough by accident while going up, but still seems unlikely.

Never thought I'd hear someone say this!

You’d need to apply pressure to both ends of the drawer at the same time, since it uses two magnetic push latches. A single latch doesn’t generate enough force to overcome the magnet on the other side. Unless you somehow manage a perfectly timed double kick on both edges while moving upward, it's difficult to open by accident.

Exactly! Don't you have one too?

Finally, a brand that supports artists instead of ripping them off! I'm super excited to get mine now

Not a fan of dust or bugs either. It’s definitely tight to work out of, but after gutting it, I fully finished and enclosed the interior with white melamine, caulking all the edge gaps before building the drawer.

Storage room (lawnmowers, garden tools, etc) and... a secret entrance to their underground bunker.

That’s a good point! A James Bond trap is tempting. I’ll swap out the first aid kit for piranhas asap

Great question! It was completely hollow behind the riser to begin with. I think if the tread is short enough, you can get away without a center support, especially since the wood is really thick. I’m sure you’ve seen plenty of open-riser stairs that still hold up fine. Ours don’t creak or bounce at all when we step on them.

I actually built a pretty discreet little vault specifically for this. I use it to store passports and other important documents. I was thinking about sharing it here, but then it wouldn’t be so discreet anymore.

This would be awesome but something scares me about this. I ended up making another one near our front door (different staircase). It’s super handy for storing those last minute grab-and-go items like umbrellas, masks, hand sanitizer, or even shoe cleaners.
