Thanks for the advice guys. Since I’m usually a 44 then a large seems to be about the way to go. Seems to be an inch bigger on the pit to pit than my wested LC legacy jacket. The thought of them making the chest bigger for those then I think it sounds like I’ll be okay ordering a large. I’m in Calif...

Hey everyone I know it’s not Indy related but still a question I had about wested jacket. I reached out to wested about this but they just said do research so didn’t really help. But I want to get their wolverine jacket but I’m trying to figure my size it doesn’t lost chest size on this jacket. My l...

indyfan1234

Yes, the LC is in many ways closer to a more typical jacket. The LC collar is cut and positioned more normally, so the back length needs to be longer to reach the same as the Raiders. It's also more boxy -- the Raiders is more tapered, especially with the shoulder width. The LC's shoulders are also...

Hey all! I have the opportunity to buy a discounted last crusade wested legacy hero in size 44 and I was wondering how the crusade compares to the raiders? I have raiders in size 44 and fits me perfect and wasn’t sure if the crusade hero fits different. Thank you

Nice! The azuma color seems to match more the Wested but could be wrong.

I thought people would enjoy this as I bought the new Wested Indy shirt and wanted to show a color comparison of all the Indy shirts I have. I do like Westeds new shirt but I think overall I prefer the WPG on color and length. But details do look nicer on the wested. https://i.imgur.com/2tuPdnY.jpg ...

indyfan1234

No, i definitely say it's in the ball park of the color we see in Cairo, very tan with a very slight pink hue. My Wested )15yrs old) is very yellowish. I bought a custom from him and the color had very pink hue to it, but nothing you'd say wasn't a Indy shirt, more very military, which can have thi...

Well my shirts out till wed 27th, I can measure the shoulder seam to seam and see what it is, then check it against one of yours. If you go XL, you have to have the sleeves shortened like I’m having to do. Croft :mrgreen: I appreciate the time replying to my questions. Also does the shirt have more...

I'm 5'5" chest is 41" It's loose in the chest as I don't like form fitting as my form is less than slim. :oops: I had the misses measure from center of neck, down to wrist and I had a feeling this would be long. But go by his size chart. I typically order M with a 16.5 / 17 neck Tried to ...

This a IM off the rack (OTR) it's from his most recent batch. It's a size L and my next will be a size M It's at the seamstress now to have them shortened. But you can see the color, this is freshly washed, cold and hung to dry. https://i.imgur.com/8ovEKEMl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/fNiWW7Wl.jpg Save...

indyfan1234

I’ve seen both in person and I think they’re both good. I’d just go with whichever is cheaper. Hmmm both are pretty close to the same price to ship to me. Trying to get I guess the one with the most accurate color to raiders and details. And fitment of course. I have a large older wested but I have...

Hello everyone I’m trying to find more pictures of wested new Indy shirt and I can’t find much as far as photos. Anyone can post pics? I’m trying to decide to go with the new wested or the over the rack magnoli. Having trouble deciding.

indyfan1234

Anyone get wested new shirt? Color seems to be more SA anyone get one and can chime in?

indyfan1234

I tend to treat my gear as clothing I like to wear. Fedora- almost always Jacket- when needed satchel- whenever we hit the parks shirts- normal rotation I save the whip, belt and holster for 'special' days ;) You'll be surprised at how many compliments you get on your hat. The more use and enjoymen...

indyfan1234

The gear is probably really great looking, but the location is not doing you any favours, neither in context nor lighting - step outside and have someone take the pics and you'll look a whole lot more awesome! Yea was going to do that but my family doesn’t take kindly to having this costume and I h...

Advintage nails the SOC look. Love his fedoras and will only be buying from him now

It’s the modern. He came out with the 36 literally the day I revived mine in the mail. I love it. The modern still has that screen accurate look

Thank you! Definitely easily my favorite Indy jacket I have. The color is just great and glad they gave me a darker leather as I know there was some light batches of the shrunken lamb. Seems almost same as regular lamb but with a little more character in the leather:

indyfan1234

Just received my shrunken lamb raiders hero in! Love this jacket but never owned a lamb jacket and this thing is light. And so soft I feel I can rip it easily. But I still love this jacket. I requested they choose the darkest jacket they had since I know color can vary. http://i.imgur.com/XXURwzj.jp...

indyfan1234

if they still offered that I would buy in a last crusade hero instantly! Looks like a great leather for the hero.

With my chest inhaling it is just .1 over 44 inches without it’s actually 42.5 ish now. #### need to loose weight haha

I'm six two and 183 pounds I wear a 42 or 40 with a 26 inch back. For me a 44 is too big, the shoulder seams are oversized in an Indy jacket but in a 44 they seem to slide almost to the elbow. I prefer a longer jacket. But I never dress as Indy I wear the jacket with jeans or work pants. The job is...

I just ordered a new shrunken lamb hero and I have a older goat skin hero I bought second hand. I felt it was too short with a back length of 24 inch but I measured and seems around 23 so not sure about that but I ordered a new one with a 25 inch back but same sleeve size (25) and chest (44) everyth...

indyfan1234

100% agreed! Wested's quality and detail to authenticity is equivalent to the screen-accurate pants offered by Noel Howard back in the day - and they're a bargain at only a fraction of the price. The M.B.A. Indy trousers were $150 off the rack, $400 custom tailored, while Magnoli's pants top $300, ...

indyfan1234

I took advantage of adVintage's recent 20% off for COW members. I ordered their handmade SOC in 100% beaver from Thomas. And it is ready to ship! I think it looks pretty great, what do others think of it? Any suggestions to adjusting the bash or let him ship as is? https://farm5.staticflickr.com/45...

Boots look great. I received size 12 and only gripe I have is the boots are thin. They don’t fit wide feet people at all. They are a little too tight. Might have to sell.

indyfan1234

So I just recieved my M long shirt from WPG. Super fast shipping from Dubai (4 days and over a weekend). It's well made and seems to be the right size-- I'm usually a large. The bottom is a tad long--too long to wear untucked but nice if you hate shirts riding up. The color is good-- a light khaki....

Found a Few threads with mention of the Wested Pants. The ease of ordering a pair and the price is enticing. Anyone have opinions of them? I have ordered custom from Magnoli before, and may do that again instead. But the wested looked pretty good to me. My eye for all the detail is getting retraine...

Mulceber: Also, I'm not sure that picture is the most representative of the Raiders shirt, as the shirt in the picture is under intense sunlight. This is probably closer to how the shirt should look under normal conditions: Mmm - I see your point - the reason why I chose that pic is because his shi...

I wear Westeds Large, was considering a WPG, has a better color imo, so I would have to go with a Medium regular or long since they are on the bigger side ? It depends on your chest size and if your tall. Would only recommend L if your a tall person. And according to the site chart a size medium is...

Thanks guys! Took a year to grow. On the fedoras I guess the rabbit ones weren't as finely pounced I take it. I have seen the penmen adventurbuilt legacy and it looks like beaver but it's rabbit so defiantly see what you mean on the technique.

What stiffness did you choose?

I chose the medium. The brim is nice and floppy soft but the crown is not too floppy and not too stiff just right for me.

indyfan1234

Thank you. It's my favorite of all my fedoras. Pics of course don't do it justice. Fedoras never photograph well.

Great looking fedora!!! Just revived mine a few days ago and what a spectacular piece of craftsmanship. Easily my favorite of my fedoras

So I just saw some others who revived a SOC advintage recently as well. Seems a lot of people are getting these spectacular fedoras!! Mine is in beaver "my first beaver" love his work. Highly recommend. Took about 4 months for me to arrive. It's cloudy outside so it seems darker outside th...
