Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Jacket

I think I'll add a vote for a Disney park jacket. As Illinois Jones said, it has that "generic" vibe.

Re: Us wings russet jacket question

Thanks for the reply! I've pecarded jackets before, of course, but not familiar with dying jackets that much.

Us wings russet jacket question

This is an idea I've had percolating. I would like a light cowhide jacket and I like the look of the russet brown jacket that US Wings offers. I was wondering if you could take that jacket and apply a dark brown dye to it. Then, as it got worn spots you would have the russet color coming through for...

Re: Top Jacket Maker These days?

I think Steele and Jones hit the right spot between price and accuracy. I've bought several jackets from them and have been very pleased with every one.

Re: custom made jacket similar to US Wings' pattern?

I'm sure you've already thought of it but I'd save a search on the evil auction site. I see US Wings jackets (even some Legacy ones) on there.

I have a Todd's (his last run, I think) and would love to get a new one but the due date keeps getting pushed further out which concerns me.

Re: First Magnoli LC White Label Jacket!

I'm really loving your latest Magnoli (this is a white label as well?)! I've been something on the fence about these and I think you just pushed me off! I definitely want the red undertones as that's what makes an Indy jacket for me. I have a goat that I love the weight of but it has the gray undert...

Re: US Wings Cape Buffalo "Cooper Original" Jacket: ions please.

I had looked at these for a while and finally bit the bullet. I thought the pockets being higher would bother me (the dreaded "not screen accurate") but I don't really notice. The leather is substantial, but not unduly so, and has lots of character. It won't flop around like the Raiders ja...

Re: Why a 4" barrel?

Dragging up an older post, I know, but I never had a problem with Indy going with a Webley. He spent a lot of his formative years in England so why wouldn't he go for an English revolver if one was around? Of course, the real world implications is it looked cool on screen. As for the four inch barre...

Re: S&J CAZADORA 36 “TRUCK CHASE” Now with Gear pic's

That is a terrific looking jacket! Beautiful! I have a couple of S & J's and they are fantastic. I have a Hero but I love that leather so it's tempting me even though I don't need it!

Re: Original Truck Chase Scene Raiders Jacket Recent Photo

Good info, Diego! Which jacket do you think Harrison had on in the Iman scenes? I seem to recall there was some discussion that was a different jacket.

Re: New TOD from Wested

I have a new washed lamb from about maybe 4 months ago. It doesn't feel flimsy or anything at all. It's actually quite comfortable, too, so, I really like wearing it. It also has the perfect drape. I'm not crazy about all the creases, but I really love the leather. It is really, really nice to touc...

I really like the look of that washed lamb! I was wondering how you think it will hold up? I had a washed lamb jacket from Wested a few years ago that was pretty fragile.

Re: US Wings Cape Buffalo Indy - First Order Reviewed

Thanks for the review! That leather looks fantastic! I've been waffling on this one for a while now because of the length. Not that I mind a longer jacket as I like my jackets longer than what Indy wore, but the extra length makes the patch pockets further from the bottom of the jacket and I just ca...

Re: Ralfy wants a hat! Fed IV or Advintage Harrison?

Lots of good info in this thread! I hadn't realized that the Federations didn't adjust brim size as the hat size went up. That's probably the reason they never looked right on me (size 62) but I couldn't place why. My issue with the Federation is the top bash always touched the top of my head, even ...
