Amazing job, I can't wait to get my hands on that jacket.

Sakis

Anyone knows where I can find a Smith & Wesson or Webley airsoft in Europe?

I've been eyeing the Wested Legacy Raiders for a while now as I am starting my Raiders costume journey. Unfortunately, they don't have a chest size listed at 34", as the minimum is 36". Do you think they'll take custom measurements for such an important measurement like that or no? If not...

Sakis

Yes it is, personally, this would be the only reason to buy another Wested. I already have one from 1999 and I love it. Although, it is very interesting that they have added pictures of this destressed look at their ordering web page which someone might think of it as kind of misleading. Because, I ...

What a disappointment.

Sakis

This is what their fb page says: Wested Update After many months of hard work and great imput from our family of Indy,s this is the result. The new Legacy Last Crusade once it’s been distressed. This jacket,s skin is identical to the original film jacket and has all the correct hardware and labels. ...

Wested just released their Last Crusade Legacy distress jacket and it's amazing.

Sakis

Thanks for the pics guys. I'm waiting to see the Last Crusade version too.

In most European countries, the majority of goods coming from third countries are not subject to taxes or customs duties if the value of the goods (including shipping costs) is less than €22. In such cases, shipments are delivered at no additional cost. Different regulations apply, however, in Franc...

From January the Great Britain is considered a third country and not a member state of the E.U. I get it and I won't elaborate on this because it will lead us in a political talk. What is funny is that back in August I purchased a set of Ark cherubs from the US. On arrival I was informed from the lo...

Thanks Brexit.
First time in my life i have to pay a tax from UK to France.
That makes the jacket 312 + 116€.
Kinda angry at myself right now, i should have been more careful.

I was afraid of this. Were you informed by DHL?

Sakis

Even worse is to be registered at their mailing list.

Sakis

I was browsing through the Wested website and came across this new item. I'm sure you all understand what it is, if you haven't seen it already, has anyone purchased it? I find it very cool and modern for every day use.

Sakis

I have a Crusade lambskin from 1999, it has almost the same weathering if not more and it's lining has been changed twice. I wear it on a daily basis. Excellent piece.

Was yours the newer green version of the MFH bag or the older browner color? I’m just curious which became yellow.

The green one.

Recently I made the stupid decision to unbraid my whip in order to change the fall. I don't know what I was thinking. I made it back but it is not as beautifull as it was.

Sakis

Any thought that this hat has been rebashased just because it doesn't look exactly like it used to, nearly 40 years ago, is simply naive. I have a 40+ year old felt hat and I know how these things change over time. Especially, if they have been brutaly used. My own curiosity is about the whip. Has t...

Nice to be helpful. And thank you for sharing that screencaps link.

From my archive, I collect photos.

A little help.

Very well said

Sakis

The tricky point here is that there is no right answer.

Sakis

Back then he wasn't the official hat maker of any Indy film, there's the huge difference. You can have many hats from many suppliers but only one from him.

Sakis

I would certainly not even consider let my Adventurebilt get dirty, at least not intentionally. But my old hat that Garrison Hatters re-blocked recently in quite another case. The thing with an item like Steve Delk's hat is that it doubles both as a piece of clothing as much as a piece of memorabili...

Sakis

This one looks very close to the classic Indy shirt with a modern feel to it. It has an extra pocket to the left arm but other than that it looks very good. Of course, if you are not looking for 100% screen accuracy. http://www.orvis.com/p/bush-shirt/21le http://www.orvis.com/orvis_assets/prodimg/21...

Sakis

Today I received an old vintage hat I had sent out for reblocking. This 30+ year old hat found its new glory thanks to the great craftsmanship of Garrison Hatters. I must admit I am amazed from the entire outcome since the hat was in terrible condition due to improper storing. I never thought it wou...

Has anyone got in touch with David from Garrison Hatters recently?

thanks folks

Any news?

Sakis

Wonderful pieces both of them. Do you keep them on display just as they are seen in the pics or behind some kind of glassed case?

Sakis

How come I don't believe it's th real mccoy?

Sakis

Anyone knows how I can save the hq pictures from the Bonhams site?

Sakis

Can you tell me what brand of stiffner is best in your opinion and if I can find it online? THX

Sakis

Too bad I didn't know that when I as in London last summer.

Sakis

After all these posts I'm a bit puzzled over the bag pictured below. It's the one found at amazon.de, crazy-world.de and else where. Although it seems screen accurate I don't know if it's any good. The straps here look thick and made of leather but I've seen other pictures where they look really che...

Fedora - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull; I like the dimensions and prefer the more "generic" bash. I know this is a blasphemous statement on this site, but I never really liked the tight Raiders pinch.

My sentiments exactly!

Sakis

27 years of Jonesing and 4 films later I've come to the conclusion that Indy's best gear was:

Fedora: Kingdom
Jacket: Crusade
Bullwhip: Raiders
Bag: Temple

What do you think?

Sakis

Sorry, I wasn't aware of this rule, so it's fine to delete it. Fans can follow this link:

Indy's whip in that picture has been changed probably to give it more length or something. You can see the real one at the pic below:

Sakis

Is it me or it's texture looks kind of synthetic?

Sakis

Thank you for the observation Michaelson

but the reason I made the post was because it mentions the number and types of whips Morgan made for the film. Let's say for "historical" reference if you like.

You can always visit: http://www.gloves-online.com/proddetail.php?prod=WK-0122 where you can find #WK-0122 - Wells Lamont® Premium Grain Cowhide Drivers for only $12.95.

According to Morgan's site these are the whips they provided for Indy 4. In 2007 we supplied one 453 8 ft. Bullwhip and five No. 455 10 ft. Bullwhip to LucasFilm for Harrison Ford’s preproduction training and for the upcoming movie Indiana Jones 4: the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls. Additionally we ...

Check out these two whip holders that a guy from England makes. I bought the one on the right from him over eBay for 9 pounds plus 1.90 for shipping. It is, in my opinion, very screen accurate and holds my 8 footer fine. It fits belts up to 1.5 inch wide (37mm) and according to this guy it is suitab...

Or even about the rest of his gear.... and I don't mean speculations.

I'm thinking about ordering an Adventurebilt but I face a dilema. I measured my head and it's 53 cm (I'm 1.72 tall) and I'm wondering: At this size the specifications of the hat (crown: 5 ½ (5.5) inches, brim (front & back): 2 Ύ (2.75) inches brim (sides): 2 5/8 (2.625) inches) should remain the...

I just saw at Pecard's website that most suitable for lampskin leather is the Pecard Lotion. I have Pecard Dressing, which I got wih my David Morgan, and I'm wondering if it's right to use it on my Wested jacket?

What do you think?

Sakis

After reading many posts from you guys at the forum about the whips you own and how good they are I convinced myself to make a step forward and expand my collection of Indy gear. The first step was made about five years when I bought a lamp leather jacket, Last Crusade style, from Wested. This jacke...
