ok so how much distance should be between the bottom of the jacket and the end of the sleeve in a TOD. The old jacket I had was 3 inches in between. While watching the film.. the jacket drapes in different ways.. causing it to look longer or shorter in different scenes.

TOD pocket size.

Well now having experienced what a Temple of Doom Jacket from wested is like... Ive noticed that the pocket size is way too big for screen accuracy. From what I could try to estimate from the film, this is what ive came up with: 8 inches long and 6 inches wide ( positioned 4.5in diagonal from the co...

Well after like 3 days of having it.. I think I do need a longer length. I tried on different shirts i've had and they all surpass it by 2 inches. Ive never been the one to tuck in my shirts. My dad absolutely loves indiana jones and since he is 1 inch smaller than me and about the same stature/buil...

Oh I am not worried about the snuggness at all. I was just concerned about the whole length. I think I will have to tuck in my shirts when wearing the jacket :P Its an authentic darkbrown lambskin. Overall I am pleased with it, I just wish it was a bit longer. Has anyone thought about buying a spair...

Well now having it for five hours.. it does seem a bit short like a raiders jacket. I specified my arm length being 24.75.. would that have ment that the length would have been 25.75? I think I have a long torso ~hmph~ and now the more and more I think about it.. I probably end up putting it on you-...

Jace... I just ordered a TOD and I guess Peter did the rest of the measurements. I zipped it up and its definitely snug.... Since this is my first wested... I dont have an opinion on the standard. Its tight but.. I love it! :-)

I requested X-Box stitching on the side straps (assuming its better durability so they dont ripp off) and the 80s fit. From looking at my credit card/banking online.. it looks like 300$ was charged (it hasnt shown a actual statement yet ..just the amount of credit was taken away) I just went to a co...

I just got the reply back from Wested... and yes the 80s fit is just more of a bit tapered then the other jacket. I think as long as you give as much information about your body.. then you'll be ok. I went with the TOD jacket because of the extra length. As for the extra cost... I think I am being c...

Just ordered a TOD Jacket!

I just ordered a dark brown lambskin TOD jacket and I can hardly contain myself \:D/ !! The only two alterations that Ive made was the Xbox stitching and I got the 80s fit (thanks to you guys!) . I guess I want to go with more of that V shape. I let them know my waist size even though they didnt ask...

Thanks Jorenz. I will probably get a Wested Jacket soon. The cowhide is too thick for me to wear in florida. Now I have the delimma of chosing between goat or lamb skin :P. Decisions Decisions!

Yes those are pictures of the ad jacket and yes I do have it here in my house :) . I just went to the "other jackets" section and I saw the Cooper and the disney one in comparison. The only difference I see is there isnt a metal snap-on button up top on the cooper ( I could be wrong and no...
