I believe Wested's standard (non-Legacy/Hero) Raiders jackets come without the dropped shoulders as well - with only their Hero and the Legacy Hero incorporating intentionally wider shoulder seams.

That confirms it - LC looks great! Raiders..well...can't say I like the look of that leather- doesn't seem to have the Raiders vibe that other earlier Wested's have had. I like the colour, I like the weight, and I like the finish. But it is too smooth, it needs a bit of ribby character. Would love ...

It was a Fed 4. Honestly I think it I never found it very comfortable due the shape of my head. As a baby my skull plates were hardening too quickly and I had a surgery to fix that. It’s not noticeable except for a small “dent” just above my left temple so I think it puts extra pressure there on a ...

Very nice jacket, KT.

When people buy the "indiana jones jacket" at the park they are more likely to identify it as identical or extremely just like the one in the latest film without noticing things like different straps, body lengths, etc., than the film one has. Also, the hat is darker brown to better look l...

Christys' Adventurer brim remains at the older 2 3/4" X 2 1/2" brim specs that the HJ sat on as default for years. Herbert Johnson modified their brim specs from 2 3/4" X 2 1/2" to be a bit wider when they went to the different hat blocks and FEPSA felt. If Christys' also made th...

https://i.ibb.co/VJM9SnY/jacket.jpg It's like there's no real movie being made but just a lot of publicity shots of HF standing around in an Indy costume. There is never any film or set equipment in the shots, background or otherwise; only practical lighting with him just "off" set or wha...

It's got a pre-cut vintage Poet Dr. WHO vibe about it. I like it. Brim/Crown ratio also looks in tune with the current adjustment norms. Are you going to put these out there for purchase? It's a very good-looking hat.

Lots of great character in that jacket. If the body length were longer I'd definitely get one but it looks to have that "Bespin Gap" body/sleeve ratio that most (all?) Indy jackets tend to have. I really like a lot of the details I'm seeing in its design, however. Texturally, a bit much fo...

Images not showing.

There we go! Thank you, Canyon. Yes indeed, that's a great looking hat!

I don't see any pics of the hat (Canyon's Penman reblock) that is being mentioned and commented on at the moment. Is this a forum setting I need to change? There are no pictures of the hat showing to be able to see.

What are the differences between HJ's currently adopted Poet block versus Penman / Delk versions from a few years before HJ changed their specs over to match? Don't they all share the same general flat-top, straight-sided block and shape at this point or is someone actually out there making somethin...

Ordered this on the longer side as I think it's among one of the only Indy jackets one can order in terms of preferred specs vs. defaulted and decisively generalized specs among most Indy jackets that, to me, look too "Bespin" short or "Tuxedo front without the tails - ish" for e...

The length on the Cape Buffalo version looks really good, actually. The pocket placements are too high for it giving it an overly elongated appearance but the coat length in relation to the sleeves looks very good. The Cooper line does look more like a rebrand rather than a pattern change.

Interesting. The HJ and Christys' looked similar shape and spec-wise but the felts didn't feel quite the same in hand. Did HJ verify that they were using the same felt as Christys' for their hats or just that their hats were being made at Christys' factory?

I mean in terms of the felt they (Herbert Johnson) were using prior to switching to customs, not the Cury felt from years ago.

Wow, neither one looks like the Cairo hat color but the Fed looks to be in the more correct hue even if lighter. That deep sable looks really red in daylight. Somewhere between the two is the right Cairo shade of muted brown but neither one of these have it on their own. https://www.indygear.com/ima...
