Your right, I should have waited but it said non darkening and I believed them. I don't mind so much that its darker, that's the way it really is in the movie, plus from what I could tell, it needed some moisture. The leather is much more pliable and supple now. It really drank it in. I think it wil...

Hi Guys, I need some expert advice on a leather jacket and who else to ask but the experts! I recently bought a Belstaff War of the Worlds jacket. Cost me a fortune, let me tell you. When I received the jacket witch was new, the leather was a light brown. I felt somewhat dry since I believe its two ...

Indiana George

Hi guys, I bought a Belstaff Hero jacket (cost me a fortune) and was wondering what is the best leather dressing I could put on it that wont change the color or damage it in any way. I've heard Lezol is pretty good, anything else?

Thanks

George

Indiana George

I looked and I don't believe it's leather. All I know is that I don't see how this band will stretch to fit me head this much. I'm going to take it back tomorrow and get a 58 instead. Also, is rebashing it going to be a pain or no?

George

Indiana George

The Stedson Temple I bought is a 7/18, a 57. It's a little small on me but the hatter said it would stretch to fit me perfect but I'm not so sure. the 58 just fell on my head without any grab at all, the hatter said I was inbetween sizes. Will it stretch as he said or should I go get the 58 and shri...

Hi Guys, Last year I bought an Akubra fed deluxe and bashed it myself and it turned out great. I really like the hat but I must admit the felt is fairly thick. I like the hat , don't get me wrong but here's the thing, I'm not a big guy and the hat is fairly big so it kinda looks big on me. Today I w...

Indiana George

Hi guys,
I was wondering, who else makes pants with the back pockets ?

Thanks
George

Indiana George

My suggestion is dont put them in the dryer, they will stay looking new a lot longer.

George

Indiana George

I hate to say it but those are brand new shoes they sent you, they would have to be miracle workers to make your old shoes look like that. Maybe the pics are deciving but man those look new.

George

Indiana George

I don't think so but if my cat uses my Akubra as a litter box I'll use up one of his lives real quick.

George

wow, that sounded kinda Clint eastwook like.....

Indiana George

Thanks all, Well, here's what I did. I took some kitty litter and crushed it to a powder on my basement floor with a cinder block and used that and it worked great! I'm very dusty now. I didn't want to go as super clean Indy, it looks kinda generic, even though dirty Indy may keep the dolls away but...

I'm no good at this search thing..let me look again.

Indiana George

yea but i want that light sandy color like the cario look.

George

Indiana George

I have a big steel pot too, can't believe how handly that thing is.

George

Thanks again

Indiana George

what color is it?

george

ps, can someone give me the link to the avatars?

Indiana George

I'm gratful for the advice but i dont wanna small like makeup when I go to a party. I 'm not sure what you all mean by dirt but dirt is black and I wont use sand. I went to the craft store and they had nothing, it blew me away. I guess I'll go as a clean indy.

George

Indiana George

Dalexs your my hero! You saved my shirt. I used color removal and then made a pot of hot water with a touch of the pearl gray and it made it a nice stone color. I'm not sure how dark/bright to go. Some secenes his shirt looks very bright and others not so, but I settled for a nice medium. Thanks Geo...

Indiana George

ok, thanks. I went to a bunch of stores and I never say pearl gray, does Rit make that? I'm just mad because I've had tons of time to order a Wested shirt and didn't. Thats goes for the pants as well. I could scream I swear! Oh well, next year I guess.

George

Indiana George

I just found out that a good beauty supply will sell fullers , they use it for facial mud packs. There's one in the mall by me so Im off to see if they have some.

George

Indiana George

This poor shirt..first I bleached it, then I dyed it tan, didnt like that so i bleached it again, too much yellow, then I tried to cover the yellow with a shade of brown, too dark, so I use Rit color removal, now its white again.
I swear when I was done I could hear the shirt panting.........

George

Indiana George

BLEACH ! I've ruined two safari shirts trying to bleach them to make them lighter, both turned yellow. After closely watching Raiders I'm convinced Indy'd shirt was more light grey than tan. Oh well, I still have one thats a the best one and thats the one I'll wear. George PS. dont use TAN Rit dye i...

Indiana George

What can I use instead of fullers earth to put on my hat and jacket instead of fullers earth? I tried cat litter but it's too dark, i want a more sandy color.

Any ideas?

George

Indiana George

I kept an attacker from hitting my friend with a stick in a fight once, i pulled the stick out of his hand, just trying to keep it a fair fight.

George

Indiana George

No, what I'm trying to say is that they are not that color at all. The shirt does have a twing of yellow but it's mostly tan. The pants are a muddy light brown and the web belt is just brown. It's weird.

George

Indiana George

In the pics my shirt looks yellow and my pants look grey, I assure you they are not. Wonder why digital cams do that? Now I know why there's so much confusion about 'colors' of things on the forum, its the cams.

I started to search/buy things around the first of October. I was convinced that this was 'just a costome' and didnt have to be screen accurate, however, the more I bought 'close-enoughs' the more I realized that it wasnt cutting it. So I finally broke down and bought the Akubra Deluxe, the Wested f...

I wonder why the digital camera changes the color of things so much?

Thanks all

Its well documented that all the movie jackets were lamb. Yes. In the archives here and on the main site. Basically, next to very little homework would have given the answer. Well, maybe I just like a little conversation. I'm sure everything's been discussed in here once before but should that stop...

Indiana George

After recieving my Wested (lamb) I watched raiders and it seems Indy's jacket was much thicker. Does anyone know what leather it was? It's my opinion that it could not have been lamb or goat because it just would not have stood up to the beating of making the movie. Plus, it just looks thicker. Any ...

Update on my Wested. Well, it arrived today and I took it out of the box and I laughed outload. After spending countless hours in thriftshops searching to a close enough jacked, I now owned Wested. I can hardly believe it. I put my full gear on and then went to try the jacket on, I was nervous, soon...

I have the Akubra Fed Deluxe, its a nice hat, although I stopped being nice to it and it's now very broke in and dusty. I was having trouble getting it to look like a Raiders hat and then I realized that it's because it's sooo clean, So I got it dusty and stated sitting on it and such and it has a b...
