I ended up going with the standard cut instead of the hero

They put it under regular cow hide category in a blog about their leathers, so I have to assume it's a really soft cow (I wanted a cow, possibly a horse in dark brown so it seemed like a no brainer) https://wested.com/pages/leather-guide I've done zero distressing and I'm not planning to, I'm really...

Hey guys, wanted to share a couple of photos of my dark brown novapelle raiders. Ignore the mess, I'm at my parents place (big family) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240615/70aa9b91c9421f3c4770a8c67e948ee4.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240615/e2236eece5cb0919cb615656bbd397e2.jpg https:/...

I went for the standard Raiders in novapelle

I got my 1st Wested a week ago, and I'm over the moon with it. It's 100% the best jacket I've owned, so I can't help but recommend wested

My advice; Don't overthink it. I won't scare you off with my Wested story. The short version is that I lost my mind striving for accuracy and ended up burning $300 on a jacket that fit like a crop top. This forum is an incredible resource and we are lucky to have it, but if you try to base your siz...

I finally ordered and received a non hero custom in dark brown novapelle (took a while [emoji1]) and it's awesome! I nailed the sizing, if I may say so myself [emoji57] (Thank god) Thanks for the help and especially the measurement image (it needs to be spread more) Low low-key looking to get an LC ...

Welcome aboard. Yes, ordering that "one jacket to rule them all" can be nerve wracking. I'll echo what Croft said about Steele and Jones. I understand it's more expensive and will likely take longer, but the attention to detail and customer service is beyond. Wested makes really great jac...

Hey everyone, I'm thinking about ordering a wested raiders hero in a few weeks when I get my next pay check. It will be my first Indy jacket, I'm trying to buy the one jacket to rule them all. I want it to last a long long time which is why I've chosen to get it in the dark brown novapelle. Before I...

Very good points, I'm also wondering if the Legacy is cut differently to a "standard hero" or if it's cut the same. I've also sent wested an email about the sizing, no reply at this moment. Tbh they'll probably just tell me to look at the size chart and that be the end of it. Any 5'7 (172c...

Hey, very much new here and trying to figure the right size for my 1st Indy jacket and I think I've landed on legacy Raiders. Im 172cm (5'7) and with an average build around 65 - 70kg. The Legacy Raiders size chart says this Chest. Sleeve. Shoulder. Back. Pit2Pit. 36". 25". 6.25". 22....
