Yes I say it again,, nice jacket Mark

JC I'm 9,5 and if you look at my pictures a little higher up on this page you will see my jacket when it was new, exactly 28 long! Would say that 26 had been more moderate, but I'm happy with a slightly longer jacket when the plan was to have it as a winter jacket. I would say that the hero jacket f...

Great pics, Joakim!!! :clap: :clap: :clap: The "understated" (if you will) pockets and collar are part of what I love about my Expedition. (Pockets are around 6 1/4" x 7 3/4" and it's a 44T) Great gear shots! My favorite (of course ;) ) is the partial zipped shot in #3. :TOH: Th...

but, daaaaannnnng that's still a pretty nifty lookin' jacket!

Rudolph, those photos of yours look FANTASTIC!

Thanks Mitch

Rudolf

Hi franco, Glad you like it :TOH: It´s a ROLA in soft goat. The biggest problem for us long guys are sleeve length, and I think this has worked well with Wested (that you can order almost any length you want ) O:) Also see my post in http://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=51983 Cheers / Joa...

Very happy with my (non SA! HERO jacket) from wested. Requested to the same length as my Custom RoLa Jacket from 2009 ie 28 inches long, see the Link http://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=44509 Size 46, the purpose was to have a winter jacket that I can fit a heavy sweater underneath. The ...

Rudolf

Wow!! Well done in just 15 years, it makes 7 jackets per year

And I think I have had many jackets (around 20 since the 80's)

My Raiders jacket got some screen time in David Finchers Girl with the Dragon Tattoo ( ie 1 sec ) :lol: http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/6479/dragon1y.jpg The Team needed a handsome person to block the window to the left of mr Craig, so I had to jump in! :o But I like how the sleeve wrinkle nicely...

Rudolf

That looks great. How did you get rhe arms tapered? Usually wested have very roomy sleeves? So if that's a 42, do you mind me asking what your actual chest measurement is? Thanks CRB I guess it looks like they are tapered because they are so long 29,5!! and for your knowledge, my exact chest measur...

Rudolf

After one and a half years, this jacket is finally formed after my body, rear panel has shrunk by almost two inches since it was new! No artificial distressing, has only been using it more or less daily since December 2009 I really like how this jacket has been shaped.... O:) http://img706.imageshac...

Nice!

Rudolf

Rudolf

I would say go for it. This is my Iron Rangers two years old
they are guaranteed to last for 10 more years.

Rudolf

Eric Congratulations ( den e fin den )

Rudolf

And here a picture of my piece a realy Great replica!
the look is right but a little light ,not like a real gun /and quite expensive......

But realy! realy! Great replica!

Rudolf

Thanks. :TOH: yes, I know what you mean Travis. its one of the best jackets I have seen to. I own many westeds. I mean many. and this one hands down is by far the best jacket I have from them. not only leather and attention to my specs but my god is it constructed like a top drawer jacket. there is...

Rudolf

se this http://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=40292

Rudolf

great one!

Rudolf

Nice collection, Mitch! Me like!!

Rudolf

Great one!

Rudolf

Looks really good. What size is your jacket, and what dimensions did you specify for back length, sleeve length, shoulders, etc? Ron The jacket is size 42 (tight on me!) that I wanted it! My other jackets are 44-46. Back length is 28 inch but will quickly shrink to 27 by experience. Sleeve length i...

Rudolf

The jacket looks very good. Good front length, a bit long in back. Is this to the 'Hero' pattern? It doesn't look like other Wested Raiders jackets. I can tell that this is not the hero pattern. it kinda looks like a my specs for the jacket but its longer. it looks like it is in lack of the longer ...

Rudolf

Thanks everyone, nice that you liked it! Because I like it really much

Although it is brand new it feels just right, so in a year it probably feels amazing!!
/Cheers

Rudolf

After three years and three jackets I finally got the jacket I wanted!¨ The first was the cow and is too heavy, for some reason, so it smells too #-o The second was the lamb and are very nice in summer, but feels a bit fragile. And two inch too short, but as I said a nice summer jacket #-o The third...

Rudolf

Wery Nice!

Rudolf

Sorry Rudolf please don't take his the wrong way, it think that jacket is just too tight and short for you. IMO it needs a little more room in the chest and shoulder, more length in the body, longer sleeves and wider sleeves at that. It actually gives the impression of being about a size too small ...

Rudolf

I really like your nowak ,how long is it in the body and sleeves? I think we are about the same length 6,5.. Here are the measurements:From the bottom of the collar stand to the bottom of the JACKET BACK is 26” From the bottom of the collar stand to the bottom of the JACKET FRONT is 24” (Along the ...

Rudolf

Something is amiss on those measurements, as there is no way there is a 6.5 inch disparity between the sleeve and front lengths. My TN has a 24" front with 26.5" sleeves and that 2.5" difference is just about spot on (and is the same as the original jacket, which has a 23" front...

Rudolf

Her it is open and from the front....with dimensions.

Rudolf

Michaelson , I know that the sleeves tend to be slightly curly on my other jackets they have been 0.5 inch shorter not more Re-read my original post. I said 'up to 1 inch'. .05 inch is within that statement. ;) Regards! Michaelson Hmm?( you've experienced the regular 'ride up' in the sleeves, those...

Indiana Holt wrote:29'' sleeves

no wonder you feel that those sleeves on your jacket are short. you dont exactly have short arms if you need 29'' sleeves

Yepp thats me the long-sleeved man

they are 27.5 on the picture 29 on the one I ordered today. ( I hope !)

Rudolf

Michaelson , I know that the sleeves tend to be slightly curly on my other jackets they have been 0.5 inch shorter not more the strange thing about this jacket was that the shoulders were a little higher which I think is good but it made the sleeves shorter than usual. RCSignals ,I think there are ...

Rudolf

wested spits out new jackets, and in a much better design than ever.
I got this one last week.

well done wested!

The only problem is that it is 1,5 inch too short

Time to order a new one.......

Rudolf

Dog, niciiiiceeejacket!

a question, you added an inch front up to 24? and 2 inch back to 25? or 25 +2 inch up to 27?
is the jacket 25 or 27 inch back now?

because my jacket is 22 front and 26 rear?

anyway great jacket....cheers!

Rudolf

Me Like!

Rudolf

VP it Looks good!

Rudolf

HA ha ha ! Mitch , superb

Rudolf

It was probably just temporary, I hope. back to English all ... :D Erri The jacket was left until a year ago, but it was in a bad condition to be saved. At the same time, I ordered a new one from Wested that I have now. But I will see if I can find more pictures of the old home-made one. Indywannabe...
