Well from the initial posting by Marc, I thought in his picture this new offering, the color is extremely lighter than what I was thinking. Personally I really like my other AB Alden boots, even though I mostly just wear them for interviews. I bought my other pair of Aldens in 2007 for $300, geez, I...

I have never had Todd's pants, and looks like I won't be able to cause I don't think he going to be carrying my size currently as I thought he was not getting another order of pants. I believe Todd's pants are like ordering from Magnoli, measure yourself. Get some cloth measuring tape and actually m...

I would suggest getting a Penman hat, reason why I haven't gotten one is I'm still waiting on hat from Steve Delk or Adventurebilt and my order was placed 6 years ago. I don't think you will have to wait that long now if you get a hat from Steve, but the price has increased. So if you got the money ...

IndianaChris711

I know everyone like's Todd's, but I got some from Magnoli and they really nice, you may have to pay quite a bit for them, but they really look and feel SA, plus you can make requests to your liking. I'm sure Todd's are great as well, I have seen them and they look great as well, just my two cents I...

IndianaChris711

Is there any way besides an e-mail to get through to Steve? Does anyone thing writing a letter and sending it in the actual mail would be better than sending an e-mail? I guess I am just trying to figure out even if Steve has my order, I think I recall him saying he lost some orders the last time he...

IndianaChris711

interesting photo, where was this may i ask, and were they actually selling aldens, if so how much??

Hello IC, You still have that gray Raiders hat? ;) I ordered my normal size and it fit fine in the chest. However, you might want to know that the jacket is constructed to fit a thin guy, with long arms and somewhat of a thin, short torso, like the the original Raiders jacket made for HF. Keep that...

IndianaChris711

Thinking of placing an order for a SL Hero pretty soon. Anything I should know about ordering a Hero jacket as far as size goes. I have a size 40 from wested, and it was a custom, and it fits great. I was just wondering if there is any adjustments on the back measurements sleeve measurements or anyt...

IndianaChris711

I was wondering if these shirts are available for order. I have been hearing about your shirts Azuma and all I can say from what I have seen here I have been very impressed. I would like to order a shirt if it is still not too late.

Regards,

IndianaChris

IndianaChris711

Well at least Steve looks to be doing ok if a hat finally arrives to someone, I thought something maybe happened to him. I ordered a hat in January 2008 and still no hat, I tried e-mailing him on the after I saw his post about the lost order fiasco. I guess I will try e-mailing him again, hopefully ...

IndianaChris711

The bottom line is Peter was let down by his supplier. Having been down to the place i've seen the rolls and rolls of shrunken lamb that he has piled up. In retrospect yeah, he should of gone through all of them before taking orders but you don't expect 90% of your stock to be inadequate in some wa...

IndianaChris711

Steve emailed me this week (12-07 order here) confirming he had all my info and asked for my address. This could be a good sign or he is just making sure his records are accurate. Either way That is good to know, was wondering how Steve is doing these days, have not seen him post on the boards in a...

IndianaChris711

This is at least the 2nd or 3rd jacket from Wested that looks just awesome. Awesome jacket Whiskyman, fits well on you. I am thinking of ordering a Wested myself here soon. Is this just a custom order, or did you ask for the Hero jacket he is making? Just amazes me, I have seen at least 2-3 custom o...

IndianaChris711

We are always sending out samples and sometimes 2 or 3 times to people who say they have never received them. On investigation it appears that in the case of USA as there is no documentation i.e. customs declaration in the envelopes they are not allowed in the country and are often destroyed. Not l...

IndianaChris711

I like the fit too! Dude, I thought I was looking at Zac Brown!!! Travis Haha thanks man. I've been called "The Dude" before at random times when I don't wear my hat. Both are pretty good compliments, man. Btw, I'm not going to do the whole dryer thing. Ill just see what happens with natu...

IndianaChris711

Interesting because my AB boots from Marc way back have the cotton lining, which I like actually. I'm not sure if it is SA or not, but I was told Marc was making these stitch for stitch the boot Harrison Ford bought back in the 1970's. I really don't know why the change anyway. The only change I saw...

IndianaChris711

Awesome hat fifthchamber, always nice to see something new from Steve. How long ago did you order? Was wondering if you were in the Nov/Dec 207 order as there was a tons of hats ordered then. Great hat, can't wait to get my first adventurebilt from Steve. I've waited long enough, over 3 years now. A...

IndianaChris711

Both are nice jackets, obviously I like the Nowak more. I tried putting in an order with Riley, we communicated for a while and was going to make me a jacket but said he wanted payment once he started the jackets. I e-mailed him what I wanted on my jackets never heard from him after that. I guess he...

IndianaChris711

I'm interested to see how your jacket will look Holt, if it is pretty close to what KT has I am probably in for a jacket from Peter. Peter, thanks for the update, I think everyone here was wondering why it is going to cost so much. The cost is justified, and much cheaper than getting a jacket from R...

IndianaChris711

A poster on The Fedora Lounge received a 12/7/07 order today. Steve is still churning out hats, as always. Was wondering how he was doing, have not seen him around COW in a while. As soon as he gets to the January orders hopefully things will be better for him. I have not gotten my hat, I am a Janu...

IndianaChris711

Wow KT, that is one nice looking jacket. I love the grain on that jacket as well, just looks very nice. Hopefully these have more of a baggy fit with the Raiders jacket. I am excited, Wested has come to my attention once again, I really like what Peter has been making lately and Veg tanned leather I...

IndianaChris711

Well Tekors, just heard about this. I think you deserve a replacement at a 'Hero' price. Contact me through Peter@Wested.Com to sort it. Funny I am following the events worried also as I am due vacation at Taba, Egypt Red Sea end of Feb/early March. Cheers Peter :clap: :clap: :TOH: Wow, how about t...

IndianaChris711

I dunno what or how, but all these jackets actually look custom fit to me.....Even IndianaChris711, both those jackets looked great on you (how can that be?!! :-k )...I know why you were having such a hard time deciding (I'm still for the large though :TOH: )...... Croft....That jacket is perfect o...

IndianaChris711

Well today marks 3 years since I e-mailed Steve for an order for a hat, and got a quick response back. If I have waited this long I am sticking with it. I don't want to put any pressure on Steve or anything, I know I will get my hat eventually, I just hope its not another year. I know Steve is busy ...

IndianaChris711

Hi IndianaChris711 , the new set of pictures shows really well the fit of both sizes . I would say keep the medium , it looks perfect on you , but my ultimate advice is ... wait for Holt ultimate advice ! TMFR ;) TMFR, ya I am really torn between the medium and the large. The medium when I first pu...

IndianaChris711

Here are some pictures Holt and TMFR requested of my medium and large jackets. Medium backpanel. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5283/5381771633_46fb0716e9_z.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5208/5382377922_f5f0dfea03_b.jpg Large backpanel http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5129/5382383594_efc13ae947_z...

IndianaChris711

I'm sorry not being precise enough .I meant pics taken from a distance to show you from head to feet ! TMFR Oh ok, got it, the weather here is not the greatest, been extremely cold, I might try to get some pictures outside maybe, if not I will try to get some pictures inside hopefully that will hel...

IndianaChris711

IndianaChris711 , could you show the same comparison pics between large and medium but in full-length ? IMO this is the only way to know which jacket fits you really well as far as your overall figure is concerned .This may not be a concern for COW tall guys , but you said you're 5'6'' , and a jack...

IndianaChris711

Indiana Holt wrote:could show a picture of the back zipper/unzipped?

I will try to get some shots of the back tomorrow on both. I feel like the large lays flat more, but I will take some pictures tomorrow.

IndianaChris711

It IS a nice jacket but IMO you should go Large. the medium looks alittle to tight in the shoulders and your only wearing a T-shirt under it.. imagine winter and a thick sweather under it... That is one thing I notice about the medium, if I am wearing a sweatshirt it is going to be really tight. On...

IndianaChris711

Zipped the medium looks kinda tight...Unzipped the medium looks good, and this jacket loosens up from new. Your call. Travis Well yes I agree when zipped up it does feel kind of tight, but the more I have tried this one on the more it loosens up. Unzipped it is ok, the end of my shoulder on the med...

IndianaChris711

Well everyone, after waiting about a week or so, my medium Straited Lambskin is here. It is a bit more stiffer than my large jacket, it is also more tighter in the shoulders and chest. My chest is 39" tight I usually wear a suit size of 40. I do weigh 162 lbs as a correction, I am on the higher...

IndianaChris711

The observation must be made... In that third picture, with the contrasted lighting, the frilly drapes and the couch and your arms outstretched as they are, you appear as a zombie from some 1930s Lugosi type film, rising from a coffin in a funeral home. :lol: That said, great looking jacket! :tup: ...

IndianaChris711

Looks nice, but if your 5'6" and weigh in at 150 -160lbs. Hmm a med might be a closer fit. See I'm in line for an imported SL (or maybe something else, calling Sarge tommorrow about that [-o< ) and I'm getting a medium, going by their size chart. I'm 5'5" and weigh in at 140 - 150lbs. and...

IndianaChris711

Yeah...I think Travis might be on to something there. If you're considering "trying on" a medium, do so. I'd be interested in how much better it fits through the shoulder area, too.... But, if you're happy with it and your parents are, too...well, then she's a keeper!! :TOH: Indydawg Actu...

IndianaChris711

That's a tough one. Hard to tell how well it fits by a picture of it right out of the box. This leather is pretty stiff which can cause the fit to seem weird until it relaxes. I would put more weight into how you like the fit through the shoulders, chest and waist. Those sleeves will develop crease...

IndianaChris711

Wow thanks guys for your thoughts, I am definately keeping the jacket, Sarge just really nailed the look of these jackets. I may ask him to send me a medium, just to try one on, but from what I am getting from you guys, it look like I have a winner. So its a keeper. This is really a different jacket...

IndianaChris711

Here is my U.S. Wings Straited Lambskin, I love the jacket, the grain on it is just amazing. :D Just I thought it was a bit too big as far as fit, mostly in the sleeves just a bit, I know some of the pictures are a bit out of focus on a couple. This is a Large, I thought it might be too long in the ...

IndianaChris711

Just got notified that my jacket has shipped, kudo to Sarge and the people at U.S. Wings. So far the jackets I have seen look spectacular, keep them coming. I guess I won't get mine till the 10th or so. Then again, I hope I am there to sign it, otherwise I have to go to UPS and pick it up I guess an...

IndianaChris711

Has ANYONE from 2008 received a hat yet? Waiting on my Nov 2007 order. Wow, I am not surprised by that considering, 500 order were placed in nov/dec 2007, that's a lot of hats. I thought we would be past those orders, apparently not. I am sure Steve is still working hard on these orders, hopefully ...

IndianaChris711

I definately see the gap in the first three photos, and agree there is a gap there. However on the fourth I am not sure it is as big of a gap as on the ones above. Looks like the back panel creates a shadow and your using that as a gap. That is what I see. I like to think things in three dimensional...

IndianaChris711

Man that is a nice Raiders cowhide jacket. :clap: Well I was wondering whether to even get a cowhide, but look at this one, and it is an import. Very good quality. I ordered a Straited Lamb from Sarge, just don't know if the pocket flaps are going to look like those, these look perfect on this jacke...

IndianaChris711

Is it too late to order one of these? Tried sending Myke an e-mail and no response back.

IndianaChris

IndianaChris711

I am beginning to wonder if and when I am going to get my hat, been almost 3 years and still no hat. I know Steve has been working hard on our hats, just did not think it would take almost three years for my AB. I was hoping maybe I would get it for x-mas or even before, but I have not seen anything...

IndianaChris711

Wow, that is just simply a beautiful jacket, perfect distressing, I would say the best LC jacket I have seen that replicates what is in the movie. How long have you had this Wested? I really want to give Wested a chance on a LC jacket I just am not sure how it is going to turn out. I would hope some...

IndianaChris711

Chris, it is USELESS to resist... Join the DARK side! :twisted: Don't make me Destroy is the next line I believe Mitch :P ;) I believe I will JOIN the Dark Side of the jackets...

IndianaChris711

Hi everyone, I just got a response back from Riley and he sent me this picture below of this darker version of the 000 shrunken lamb next to the 000 jacket. At least that is what he said in his e-mail. Is this new darker version any different than the 000 shrunken lamb that people already have alrea...

IndianaChris711

Wow, is all I have to say on these SL Legend jackets, absolutely great looking jacket. _ said that if you were looking for a jacket earlier on from U.S. Wings to go with the SL jacket. Wow, this jacket just is awesome. Even more awesome than that is that Sarge is giving COW members in good standing ...

IndianaChris711

If Kim is not answering I would try Stefan, tell him you have tried e-mailing Kim e-mails with no response back. I don't know if Kim is somewhere, but you never know, plus there is a huge difference in time. I would try Stefan, maybe he can at least help you out.

IndianaChris

IndianaChris711

I sent Riley an e-mail with my measurements for the jackets I am wanting, I did decide I am getting two from him, both a Raiders and a Last Crusade. I just have not heard back from him yet. I know he is probably busy with a lot of e-mails. Anyway, just was seeing if anyone has gotten in contact with...
