Re: Best Indy Shirt?

I have the WPG and the Azuma (raiders) shirts. The material used on the Azuma is a lighter weight and more comfortable shirt than the WPG. Azuma is very close to the NH that l have.

Re: Is the G&B lamb about the strongest version of that hide

I would say that of my four lamb jackets, the only one "robust enough to survive a modest bar fight" is the G&B. I've abused it pretty good over 3 and a half years and it looks close to new. While the lamb from Wilson (non Indy) didn't survive a hike in the woods without a tear to the ...

Re: Sandpaper?

Higher grit sand paper can be found at auto paint stores. Also maybe try auto parts stores like advanced auto, auto zone or napa. Ask for the wet sanding sand paper. hope this helps.

The leather is distressed boar hide. I haven't seen that one before. Now if I could get them to embroider hakuna matata on the inside pocket. (It's close enough to warthog right?)
