Oh my.

Looky here.

Bit of a revival... Happened on this thread as I was diving into my yearly ritual (I was looking for a conditioner for my SL Legend). Here's mine. Come about late August or early September, I start pulling my jackets out and getting ready for the season. Checking seams, fit, levels of wear, etc. and...

Dragonlady Jones

Dude, remind me not to let you near my laundry room.

Dragonlady Jones

Thanks guys, lexol on order via amazon.

Now, while I certainly respect a Gearhead's right to practice unnatural water-related distressing, there's no way in hades that my SL is getting anywhere near the washing machine. Just saying...

I've used Pecard dressing on every jacket I own, except my SL. I've been holding off because I'm trying to break it in and allow a bit of natural distressing to take hold (that...and I've been deployed for a year and a half). Regardless, I've realized that now is the time to start caring for this ja...

Dragonlady Jones

Outstanding work boss.

Pretty sure that's my next jacket purchase.

Dragonlady Jones

Talk about extra credit...

Glad this ended well. $\:D/$

Option three.

"Bathroom Window"...love it. Great jacket Wade!

(After all, a thread is worthless w/o pics!). http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/tt282/spooclark/DSCN9899.jpg http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/tt282/spooclark/DSCN9906.jpg Are these Indy postage stamps? :TOH: I think they were resized when the thread was past its expiration date... :Forrestal:

Dragonlady Jones

I don't know man, I think you have me beat in the jacket pics department - based on quality and sheer volume (of jackets)!

Dragonlady Jones

Yes, I'm notoriously good (maybe that's bad?) about reviving long dead threads with thread CPR. Dude - you are the infamous guy of "U.S. Wings" website fame. Nice work! And nice jacket. Is it still holding up well? (The "CE"). Cheers It's holding up great, and I've seriously abu...

Dragonlady Jones

Wow, a little thread necropsy...

Thanks Chariot!

Dragonlady Jones

Ummmm....

Couldn't resist.

Great color, great fit, great jacket! Thanks for sharing the pics! I have to admit, I'm a little jealous...

Dragonlady Jones

Thanks from me as well...awesome bag.

Dragonlady Jones

My two cents: The Legend is supposed to be based on one of the original ROTLA patterns, so it's probably the closest you'll get to "Screen Accurate" from USW. I own a US-made SL and absolutely love it. When it comes to the color, texture, and drape of the hide, I think the the striated lam...

Dragonlady Jones

I'm with Michaelson:

(Minus the mustache and glasses of course.)

You made the right call, that Small is just too much jacket. Speaking from experience, I'm sure USW will make it right.

Dragonlady Jones

Ok, so it took me a while to get around to posting pics. Here's my 1000 mile boots with about 500 miles on them. What can I say, they're great boots. They fit like a pair of slippers and can take a surprising amount of abuse. If you're looking for an Alden alternative, these babies have great charac...

Dragonlady Jones

I have to agree with Weston...wow.

Dragonlady Jones

Great. Now I have another movie to watch.

Dragonlady Jones

I think you're right - nice boots!

Dragonlady Jones

No worries...rock on bro.

Dragonlady Jones

Got them at the Gap. Very comfy and they're on sale to boot.

Dragonlady Jones

Aw shucks Mitch, you're making me blush. :oops: I'm married though, so don't get any ideas! :lol: Seriously though, many thanks. I knew the pictures were pretty cool, but didn't expect such a positive reaction. Glad everybody likes them. I guess I'll have to get out there with the camera a little mo...

Dragonlady Jones

Lookin' GREAT , DJ! :D :tup: And like jl said, I'm loving the (slight variation of) colors we're seeing in those shots... Just the slightest variation in lighting can give the WPG a more/less grey/cream/beige hue... and the fact that you're wearing a white tee underneath will make for what I'm sure...

Dragonlady Jones

I'm about 5'11" and 185lbs. I normally wear a size Large shirt (size 43/44). I initially purchased both a Medium and Large with the intent to return the one that didn't fit. Out of the package, the medium was a good fit in the chest and upper body but the arms were much too short. The Large's a...

Dragonlady Jones

It's out west, north of Green River.

Dragonlady Jones

Awesome kicks! Now I have to get ANOTHER pair of boots...

Dragonlady Jones

Beat me to it Texan!

Dragonlady Jones

Bapty all the way.

Dragonlady Jones

One of the best jackets I've seen you in. Kudos...

Dragonlady Jones

No worries. The Large was just right in length, but way too wide. It makes a big difference when you have someone make it fit exactly the way you want...

Dragonlady Jones

Thanks again guys. Michael, humble thanks for the compliments. They're almost too much...almost. :lol: :TOH: As I've always said, I'm "Indy-inspired" and I prefer my own take on the gear. Although, I am glad you guys like the shots with the WPG. That's probably the closest I'll ever get to...

Thanks for sharing, great fun!

No worries. For the record, I agree with you.

Dragonlady Jones

As promised...my tailored Size 'L' WPG shirt.

Dragonlady Jones

Awesome shots!!! :clap: Have you found that your's has worn in or started to distress? I know that it was implied that these jackets would distress fairly quickly with just regular wear, but I've not found that to be the case at all.....I've had mine since Jan and worn it practically every day, not...

great pics! the 3rd one is my favourite where you are legging it. P.S is that the grail diary in your pants or were you just pleased to see someone lol Enjoy!

Thanks guys! It was actually a lot of fun. I was in White Horse Canyon, very cool and really beautiful. I did feel a little ridiculous though; running full speed at the back of my stationary truck...

Thanks, it's Striated Lamb.

Dragonlady Jones

Soooo...I just happened to find myself in the high desert of western Wyoming the other day. (Jacket is my Legend and the shirt is WPG) http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/tt282/spooclark/Indy%20Gear/IMG_8825_2.jpg http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/tt282/spooclark/Indy%20Gear/IMG_8791.jpg http://i620...

Dragonlady Jones

Totally agree. The thicker fabric seems to last longer and it's far more rewarding when you break that bad boy in!

Dragonlady Jones

Alright Michael, I'm finally following up to my old post. If you recall, I bought both the M and L hoping to find the perfect fit. The M was way too short in the arms; the L fit great but was a touch too wide in the chest. Solution: I returned the M and took the L to the tailor. Result: Absolutely a...

Dragonlady Jones

Agreed. Great looking jacket! You need to break that thing in though. Now get out there and have a buddy tow you behind a truck or something.

Dragonlady Jones

Very similar, except for the obvious lack of "moc toe" stitching. For the price, might as well get a pair of Aldens...

Dragonlady Jones

You wear it well! Good work.
