Those are some awesome pics Luke!!! Looks like one of the little adventures went a bit crazy with the sidewalk chalk...lol. Reminds me of my house

Anyway, awesome fedoras and gratz on the finds for the little ones!!

If this is the case, then how is it your fault? Take measurements of both jacket sleeves, then take pictures of them side by side and send them to the jacket maker. If they are as different as you say then it should be up to them to fix it without any extra money from you. If they don't match up th...

ydam

Do they do business online? What does their web site policy say about returns, exchanges, etc.? It appears you did not get what you paid for. Did you actually measure the two jackets to see how the sleeves differed in length? Filing suit over a small amount would not be cost effective. You could tr...

I appologize if this is in the wrong area but it does pertain to a leather jacket. However, it's not a request for advice on who to buy the most accurate Raiders jacket from. It's not a post to help me decide on which leather to choose or even to figure out the SA details that may have been overlook...

ydam

WHEW!!! I am glad i ran across this post when i did. I just got off the phone with FedEx and told em to hold the package. I will take your advice Michaelson and go with Global Priority back to Wested. Thanks...i definatly owe you on this one!!!

ydam

I just sent it back and I sent it FedEx. I never read up on the web site that said not to send them back through FedEx or UPS. I will say that it cost me quite a bit to send it back though unfortunatly. No tips on who to send it through. Post office or DHL maybe...you might check both as i am sure t...

ydam

I would be interested. I have always loved the look of that jacket. I would like to know an estimated cost as well as a time frame of when this jacket design might be ready so we could actually place orders. If it is a limited offer jacket then I just need to make sure the money is saved up, measure...

ydam

Wow, Steve the wait time on YOUR hat beats all! :lol: :wink: LOL...makes an 8 month wait look like a nothing at all!!! I have enjoyed going back through all the pictures of everyone's ABs. I have to say I love the one i own and definatly owe Bending Oak one for helping make my mind up to finally ge...

ydam

havnt recieved them but that was the "big gift" from my wife. She got me a grey AB from Steve and an AB Deluxe from Marc....looking forward to gettin to post some pics when they arrive.

ydam

Old Price or New Price...it's worth EVERY penny and more!!! My first AB, a hand me down from someone on the cairo bazzar here, has daily grown on me. Steve has converted an HJ lover as my HJ has found a nice spot in a box on the shelf. Bottom line...these hats are worth MUCH more then either price a...

ydam

Also...if you make a trip to the Cairo Bazzar it looks like G-Mann has just put one up for sale. You might contact him if you havnt figured out where you are planning on purchasing a holster at just yet.

I am getting in on this thread a bit late and just skipped around reading bits and pieces. However, am i right that steve said we could purchase a replica of one of his original indy blocks? If so where and how would i go about picking one up? I would LOVE to have a block that was my size.

ydam

WHOOT!!! Another gearhead with a new hat...tis the season

Hat looks great...gratz!!!

ydam

Thanks for all the compliments guys...always fun to be able to share new gear with everyone :D Really great looking shoes there! Am I reading correctly, that those are size 14 D? I've been having trouble finding Aldens in 14 E, wondered if the 14 D's would fit me. Do they seem roomy enough? 14D is a...

saw some webley resin props on ebay just the other day. I bout my SW resin off ebay and it looks great.

ydam

They all look awesome!! I love bernardo's whips and will hopefully take the plunge and purchase one of my own one day. Gratz on the whip!!! Again...they look great!!

ydam

However i know some of the guys here are and i am sure you will get some instructions from them soon. Till then...gratz on the jacket :D Hmmm...maybe better for me to...

ydam

wow...they all look great!!! Nice work Paul!!!

ydam

WOW...she even makes the hat she's wearin look good

Oh...i was supposed to say somthin bout shirts wasn't I???

ydam

Yup...i have to say my jaw dropped when i saw what you did with your BCF lid Mac..would love to see Indyextra pull one of these off. For 20 buch though that is hard to beat...gratz on the hat Extra and keep us updated if you decide to pursue a reblock.

ydam

seriously???? wow...that must be the REAL reason Steve is taking a break. He knows he is going to have to compete with the Limited Edition Dorfman..

Ummmmm...no thanks...

ydam

GREAT lookin hat Kal...thanks for the pics.

ydam

Looks great VP...thanks for the detailed pics. I am lookin forward to when mine get in.

ydam

Order placed for a Grey one from Steve and a Brown one from Marc...looking forward to bein able to show off the pics but not so excited bout the long wait. Although, I know this is one of the few things i consider "worth the wait"

ydam

the NH holster is the one i have and most definatly stands up to any and every day wear that would be put on it. I was impressed with how heavy duty it felt. If you want it to last then i dont think you will be disappointed with the NH holster.

ydam

yup...those are definatly new. Now it's time time get em nice and broke in...what type of trip ya planned for em first?

ydam

Wow Oak...its looking good man. How hard is making your first whip and where did you find the "how to's" to make it if you dont mind me askin? Lookin forward to seeing the final product!!

Hmmmmmm.....wouldnt happen to be around a 46 Long would it? If so i know someone that it would fit just perfect

ydam

Agreed...that is one nice lookin jacket ya got there Crusader.

ydam

;0 I had to be the first with this. well even though you beat me to the "worthless without pics" emote, i know what i will be saying when the pics are posted. I am sure this Bernardo whip is just as fantastic and high quality as all the others he made. All the pics I have seen of his whip...

ydam

I got mine to darken rather quickly and naturally just by puttin the whip on my dash in my car. The sunlight did a good natural job of darkening the leather and all i had to do was let it sit in the sun while i was at work.

ydam

yup...i gunna have to agree with bink on this one...quite an improvement!!!

ydam

I currently have 3 Indy Fedoras and one on order from Marc. I am working on ordering another fedora from Steve. Why do i have more then one...my first hat was an SAB HJ that i bought to get nice and worn. I was completly happy with that one but decided i wanted a hat to wear and keep nice. So i orde...

ydam

nice!!! lookin forward to the photos

ydam

i have the NH and love it but it is a bit pricey. I think Marc is workin on doin an AB version of the NH shirt witch wich will basicly be identical in every way except the price. If you can talk him into hookin you up with one of those you will have the best of both worlds. As far as the other optio...

ydam

hey mar...welcome to COW. Lookin forward to gettin to see some of those pics of the new fed. as far as the addiction goes...dont worry...it only gets worse

ydam

I guess I have a sick sense of humor. Once, when I was at the Smithsonian and wearing my Wested, I was looking at the display of the hat, whip, and jacket that was used in the Indiana Jones movies. I waited until there was a nice crowd of people around. I yelled out, "Hey, Honey! Check this ou...

ydam

Awsome lookin hat AC...i know what you mean bout the AB. Since i been wearin mine it has definatly grown on me. Cheers mate!!!

ydam

yup...i think the experiment was a success. Looks great G!!!!

all i have to say is....

ydam

sorry michaelson...guess we managed to get a bit off topic aye. :P Anyway....ummmmm.....I never had a problem with my wested. It was a short wait, perfect fit, and got exactly what i ordered. Guess i might have been one of the lucky ones but I love the jacket and never had any complaints with the cu...

ydam

The hat looks great!!!

Welcome to the Club GI. Glad ya joined us here at COW!!!

ydam

What is an IOAB? thanks From what I've heard you can't go wrong for the price! http://www.winrichwhips.com/indy.html I just picked one up a few weeks ago and i have been really happy with it. It is a super nice whip for a super nice price. If like the indy look but dont like the indy cost i would r...

ydam

I think the jacket looks great and the sleeve length is perfect.

ydam

I havent seen this tutorial or how it works. I just cant imagine settin a hat on fire though. If you get a chance to post some pics Ron I am really interested in seeing how this turned out.

ydam

thanks guys...i really must tip my hat to steve on this one. I did not actually buy the hat from Steve and he still offered to get this thing to look right on me. I definatly think he hit the nail on the head with this one. I know i have told ya 1000 times but i am gunna say it again..."Thanks ...

ydam

Well i was going to wait until i got my HJ reblocked before i posted pics of the AB, but i cant help it. I think the brim trim Steve did was right on. I think he took 1/4 inch off the brim width total. Needless to say this hat has continually grown on me. I very pleased how the hat is coming along a...
