jeremy3178?

As far as I know the only treatment these boots got was the abusive kind lol but I could be wrong...I'll ask Jeremy to respond asap.

I didnt have time to get pics but I will get them and post them later.

My brother came down to visit this week and we started comparing our Raiders style Wested jackets. Jeremy has had his Wested since 1999 or 2000 and I just got mine in September of this year. We were pretty surprised how much difference there was in the jackets. All things being equal but the year of...

I got home from work around midnight and found I had a packaged waiting on me. It was my 8 ft. Indy whip from Gus! I haven't had any time to really have some fun with it but it is just in time for Halloween! It looks great too! While I definitely plan on getting a DM, this is my first whip and am ex...

Mine are still in the store with a price tag on them My close enuffs just ain't good enuff

djd,
I want to do that pretty bad but I have two concerns: how bad does the jacket shrink, if at all, and the weather is starting to cool down and I'm not sure it would totally dry without the possibility of mildewing. What do you think?

Strider, I just saw that pic and had to put it up...God I love those movies. Yeah and as far as my jacket, I put brown Pecards on it as you suggested and yes it definitely makes the jacket look SO much better. I need to take some new pics (without the flash :wink: ) The jacket, in my opinion, looks ...

That's because I was gonna wait until you came to visit and do it in person, bro.

No action pleats were distressed in the filming of this movie:

(no offense intended, JA). None taken. I am very pleased with the way it has come out. Like I said before no one has to wear it but me, so I distressed the jacket to my own personal satisfaction. I can say however, that just in natural light most of the scratches are not visible, the camera flash r...

Thanks Kap, I'm definitely going to do that! As far as some calling it a TOD jacket, which is great because that's my favorite (the first I was old enough to see in the theater, I was 4), I think its kinda funny that I used a LC pic as a general guide: http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e188/jagordon...

Yeah this definitely isn't the finished product...got some Pecards to apply and theres a few more places I want to get the shine off...But so far I do love it and I'm pretty excited about how I "think" its gonna come out.

J. A.

I'll keep you guys updated.

If I made marks that I didn't like, I found that moistening those marks would darken them a bit-- I didn't know about Pecard's then. Jack, Yeah after I took the pics I noticed that there were some lines that I didn't care for too much, they were more noticeable in the pics with the flash than in pe...

Thanks Indiana G, yeah it still kind of a work in progress but I thought I'd put up a few pics...I'm trying to stay away from chemicals but we'll see.

Ok guys I decided to use some sandpaper on my Wested to get the new off...I roughed it up pretty good in my opinion but I'm very pleased with how it took the shine off of it...Oh and if you dont like it you don't have to wear it :lol: By the way, these pics were taken with a Sony Ericsson cellphone ...

Noel Howard Price List I got on Sept 15 07: Shirts (dark or light buttons): $115.00 Tousers(machine or handmade):$185 - $335 Bag Used:40 Bag Unissued:20.00 Bag Strap (4 different):32 And then the list goes into holsters, gunbelts, etc. If anyone wants the current list just let me know...It took a li...

This set of off days I'm gonna give it a shot...I'll post'em if I take'em

Alright Jeremy...back to cover

.....oh yeah, Why are you in a bathroom? I know I know.....

Like I said before bro, it looks 100 times better than it ever has before....maybe now people will stop asking if its "pleather" :lol: Seriously though, it looks great...My goal this set of off days is to distress my jacket...I'll get some pics if I actually work up the courage...was think...

I think some guys are just in a position where they just can't justify spending 300 dollars on a jacket...or just can't get permission to spend that much on a jacket. However, they can justify spending 100 - 150 dollars on a "close enough." Not saying this is the case in this instance. I j...

you're gonna like it. order some pecards while you wait.

Ordered that yesterday as well! Thanks ZT!

I think the coast is clear Jeremy, you should come out from under the Plymouth and post some pics of your distressed lambskin jacket.

Based on the info above I just ordered a whip from Gun and cannot wait to get it!

J. A. Gordon

KT, First thanks for the tips, as I need all the info I can get my hands on. I got the Raiders Authentic Lamb. I'll have to get back to you on the pics in the next day or so.

J. A. Gordon

Thanks, Nick!

Great lookin whip! I've now got one on order from Gus!

My Wested just arrived last week and it is great but with one problem...the sleeves, for my taste, are a little long. Is it possible to alter the sleeve length through a leather shop or seamstress? I want to get this issue resolved before I start to distress it.

Thanks in advance
J. A. Gordon

Not bad in my humble opinion, especially for the price...the pockets look good.

Your hat looks better in person brother, unlike my peters bros.
