DOHERTYJAX, the jacket suits you quite well! :tup: :TOH: Best wishes, Nebraska Schulte Thanks, I really love it. Only problem is that it is officially too hot in Florida now to get any use out of it.... :) Please send some of that heat to the Pacific Northwest - we could use it here ;)[/quote] :lol...

That hat looks great

It protects and preserves the leather. I use the cream. And yes it will darken the leather

Here are some pics.....not the best quality. Jacket still has the tags on it as well as a fresh coat of Pecards http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj85/dohertyjax/hero4.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj85/dohertyjax/hero1.jpg" onc...

When you get a chance, I'd love to know what's on the CD and the book...and pics, of course =)[/quote]

The book is "The Life of a Warrior" The story of Sgt. David Hack.

The CD, which I thought was a DVD is an interview with Sgt. Hack.

Well, I bought the hat from Movie Shop..........It arrived yesterday. It is definetly not as good as the Federation I used to own, but it will do fine for what I need it for. The only thing I really dont like is the fact that the felt is too soft to hold a proper bash. I will need to stiffen the fel...

My Hero jacket arrived today. Thanks to this form I chose wisely when it came to the size. At the last minute I decided to downsize. I have had a Wested, a Todd's, and a Lucasfilm Ltd., and the fit was never quite right. This jacket fits me perfect. I was amazed with all the free goodies US Wings th...

DOHERTYJAX

After reading about the sizing I decided to change my order and go down a size. I received an email today saying the jacket should be shipped by Friday... I can not wait till it Arrives.....

DOHERTYJAX

Is that a wool Christy's or Movie Shop?? Here's a wool version: http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v5164/69/42/577781563/n577781563_2070013_1919064.jpg Then the same hat after about a year of abuse: http://a6.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/5611_119350386563_577781563_2457999_1836981...

I am going to try to find some edge dressing tomorrow.....

DOHERTYJAX

I ordered the Hero jacket on the 25th. I had not heard anything as of today about shipping. I called US Wings and found out that they were out of stock in my size, and the jackets would not be in for another 6 to 8 weeks................

DOHERTYJAX

Yeah, I contacted them to see if it was a Christy's.........They said that they (Movie Shop Ltd) make the hats themselves. I may be the guinnea pig and get one. The price is good, and as far as the felt goes......Wool is ok for what I would use the hat for...............Around the house, cutting law...

DOHERTYJAX

I used to own the Federation...............Needed money a while back and had to let it go along with my Wested goat........But I amslowly getting some gear back.....Just ordered the US Wings Hero jacket. I found this hat on Ebay, and I was just checking it out.

DOHERTYJAX

Found this hat on ebay. Looks interesting. No brand name listed,but it reminds me of the Christy's Adventurer. I contacted the seller,and the hat is made by Movie Shop Ltd. The specs they list are as follows: - Light sable brown, wool felt fedora hat - Dark brown Petersham Ribbon with bow - 5 1/2 &q...

DOHERTYJAX

Boots arrived today. I was amazed as to how good they looked. The pictures do not do them justice. Very comfortable straight out of the box. They provide two pairs of laces, tan and dark brown. I will post pics with the different laces as well as before and after pics with the edge dressing. Here ar...

DOHERTYJAX

Any one have any feedback on these jackets? I was thinking about ordering one. Seems like a good deal.

DOHERTYJAX

I had a pairt of those about 2 years ago. They were very comfortable. They tend to scratch easily though..............which I guess is good if you want a beat up look..

DOHERTYJAX

Edge dressing??? I will have to look into it. Thanks Wow.....Those look pretty cool... I should have mine by wednesday. The only thing about the ones I ordered that I dont really care for is the color of the soles.....I wonder if there is some sort of dye I can use to make them brown.... I have a pa...

DOHERTYJAX

I wonder if you could get someone to add the stitching to these boots to make them look like the moc toe.........shouldn't be too hard to do

DOHERTYJAX

I just ordered a pair of Timberland Earthkeepers from Eastbay. When I found these boots, I was unable to find my size, but Eastbay had them. I also found a promotion code for 15% off the order. Brought total to around $101.00. http://www.eastbay.com/product/model:148814/sku:84557/timberland-city-esc...

I was searching Craigslist and came across a set someone was selling that they won from the Florida Lottery. It came in a nice box which looks like an old crate with "property of Dr. Jones" on it. I originally thought the jackets that came with these were made by US Wings. But this one was...

DOHERTYJAX

Ok..........I was scared, but the surgery is over..............Shoulder padding removed with only minor scarring.

Thanks

DOHERTYJAX

Is there a way of taking the shoulder padding out of the jacket without ruining it?

DOHERTYJAX

What brand are they?

DOHERTYJAX

Thanks Michaelson.................I will go to their website and place an order.

DOHERTYJAX

Thanks guys...........................Looks like I will be going with the size 10

I am three weeks out of surgery for a torn labrum.............My physical therapist about killed me this morning, but my range of motion is better then expected at this point...........I will be in a sling for another 2 weeks while everything is healing............I hope to be able to start using my...

DOHERTYJAX

I had shoulder surgery on Feb 16th...............It's is going to be a while before I can crack a whip again. I may try my other hand, but I am sure I will injure myself.

DOHERTYJAX

I wore mine in the shower to break it in. In hot water.......My mistake............After the jacket dried, it became stiff...........Will Pecards help restore the jacket???

DOHERTYJAX

I have the same jacket. I love it.......You got it at an awesome price

DOHERTYJAX

How are Todd's in size compared to Aldens? Bigger, smaller, the same? I am thinking about purchasing a pair, but I want to make sure I pick the correct size. I had the Aldens in the past in a size 10.

DOHERTYJAX

I first tried the close enoughs. I bought the Farnums. Then I was reading about everyone buying Aldens from Schmidty. I saved up the money and ordered a pair. They are a lot more comfortable than I expected them to be. Plus they are well made and will most likely long outlive the Farnums. And they a...

DOHERTYJAX

I bought mine a few weeks ago from Schmidty. I love these boots. They are starting to take on some character after wearing them to work almost everyday. They definetly get better with age.

DOHERTYJAX

I have a pair of the dark ones listed for sale in a size 10 if anyone is interested. I ony wore them to work for about a week befor I broke down and ordered some Aldens.

DOHERTYJAX

You made the right decision. I have had mine for five days now, and I can not wear them enough. They feel great. Unfortunately, I can't wear them everywhere. My wife said they did not go with my workout attire. I thought a little sweat would help break them in quicker, but she didn't go for it. Anyw...

DOHERTYJAX

Sorry for the confusion. It was MGM that had the shirts, not Blockbuster.

DOHERTYJAX

I was there last month. No jackets for sale. All they had were Dorfman hats, baseball hats, and t=shirts. I was a bit disappointed. But my kids were chosen to go up on stage as junior directors for the Indy show. That was pretty cool

DOHERTYJAX

Blockbuster has a bunch of nice Indy stuff including baseball hats for $12.99. The same hats are selling for $21.99 at MGM (Hollywood) Studios. I was going to buy one when I was down there last month, but I opted for a Raiders t-shirt. I am glad I did, because now I can buy one and have money left o...

DOHERTYJAX

Thanks Schmidty. I used Kiwi select premium paste in brown

DOHERTYJAX

Well I got my Aldens this Saturday from Schmidty. I love the boots, but I wanted them to be darker (brownish), so I used brown shoe polish on them. Now they almost look oxblood to me. What can I do? Is there a way to make them look more brown than red? Also, is there any way to lighten the lace arou...

DOHERTYJAX

I have a Wested goat, and it is great. I had a lamb from Todd's, and the goat seems like it can take a lot more abuse. Not that I even plan on abusing it. I am not sure if the Wested lamb is any different.

DOHERTYJAX

Just put them on. They are perfect. Thanks Schmidty.

DOHERTYJAX

my walmart has them too, but not that color. did they have any XL at your store?

DOHERTYJAX

Im in the same boat with my 6 year old, but I dont want to spend too much money.

DOHERTYJAX

I had that problem with mine. I sent it back to the whip maker to have it tightened back up. It is something that can be fixed.

DOHERTYJAX

My wife called earlier, and my Aldens are waiting for me at home. I still got 2 hours until I can see them..............................She was shocked when she saw the price I paid, but I had to remind her that I sold a bunch of stuff to come up with the money and Schmidty gave the best deal....

DOHERTYJAX

Thanks Schmidty, I will let you know when they get here. But hopefully the ones I ordered will work out.
