Re: My Garrison Raider (Garrison owners unite here!)

Just received a beautiful Garrison Raiders Travel Fedora in rabbit. It's the best fitting Indy fedora I've ever owned, period. I got some help modeling it. Thanks David! https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3952/15372780310_4e4af03a35_z.jpg https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3928/15372407037_b332535159_z.jpg ...

Re: Show us your US Wings Legend COW US made or Imported jac

I ordered a size large in USA Cow and it's way too tight uder the arms and the sleeves ride up. I don't understand how the sa...

Re: US Wings Kids Raiders Jacket ***pics added***

I received the Kids Legend jacket yesterday and it is awesome. I hung it beside my Hero jacket last night just so it could soak up the smell a little. I love the color, more of a darker, greyish brown, very Raiders. I'd love to have a Legend cut from the same skin! My daughter is going to love it! T...

Re: Show us your US Wings New Zealand lamb jackets

Hey Fitch. The lining in my NZ lamb jacket is very rich, soft and silky. My latest jacket has a nylon lining like your describing. There is some "crackle" to it. I've been wearing it for a couple days now, and the crackle is fading. I hope you keep your jacket, as this is a unique skin th...

Re: Show us your US Wings New Zealand lamb jackets

Did the first run of jackets have this type of satin lining? I don't remember reading any negative comments. It really is loud and annoying. It's like there is a paper layer between the satin and leather.

Re: Show us your US Wings New Zealand lamb jackets

Today I just received my NZ lamb that I ordered back in July. I ordered a Med Reg and it came without snaps?? While the leather is absolutely beautiful, the satin lining is very stiff, thin and paper-like. It's noisy when I move, and I'm not sure the lining will ever soften up. Between the missing s...

Re: Show us your US Wings Antique COW Hero jackets

I typically wear a 40 regular jacket. ;) Ah, got it. Didn't Wings adjust the sizing a bit with this batch? Or am I wrong? I wear 40R as well, although my chest measures in at 38 inches. My Medium fits pretty well, but a bit on the loose side. I guess I shouldn't try sizing down to a Small after all...

Re: U.S. Wings Antique Cowhide 'Hero Jacket'

I'm 6'-1" and weigh 165 lbs with a slender frame and ordered a Med. The body of the jacket fits me absolutely perfectly, but the sleeves are about 1" too short, just enough to ride up my arm when stretched. I 've tried a Large from Wings before and they are huge on me! I guess I'll return ...

no, you didnt get lucky as this is standard for wested to do and it IS wrong if you want the jaket to be screen accurate. in real life then yes, this is the way it should be. and I asked you if you asked for the sleeve to match the yoke. if you didnt and you still got it, it would just be one of th...

ooooh . me like. but brown is my favorite. but black sure is nice! I see you have the sleeve seam /yoke alligement matching. you wanted that? if you ask me its a much cleaner look and is how I think the raiders jacket should have been made. oh, and welcome! I didn't ask for it, I guess I just got l...
