Measurements ? Certainly. I have a medium in the lamb version of this. I'd love to know what the Large measurements are. Back length: 25.25" Sleeve length: 24" Pit to pit: 23.25" Shoulder: 18.5" Is the goatskin soft like the lamb ? Wow. The shoulder measurements seems to suggest...

damieneo

Nice Scott! It looks like the jacket had a shorter length and a more snug fit compared to the Legend Cow and the Hero that you had. Would you say this is a considerably trimmer fit? Smaller in size?

Finally got some pics taken, so here ther are; http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v619/mypetelvis/todds%20jacket/DSCF1159-1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v619/mypetelvis/todds%20jacket/DSCF1164-1.jpg The length in the back fits me perfectly. Don't judge the length by the jeans pockets. I've ...

Come to think of it, is this the new run for the Todd's Standard? With the corrected Yoke/Sleeve seam alignment? If it is perhaps I'll wait for the new batch when it's available to get a medium. But ####....the textures on this Bantu Wind is really, really nice.

damieneo

What you could try is one of the insulated Jackets perhaps? Mine isn't.... And although a couple of people here have said they have them, we haven't seen any photos....Perhaps the large with insulation would solve the shoulder issues for you? :-k Guys with the insulated jackets? Any chance you can ...

damieneo

Sizing for large I can certainly help with.... Shoulder point to shoulder point, straight line measurement across the back above the yoke at the widest point is 52cm Across the front, arm/shoulder seam to arm/shoulder seam, following the straight line from the neck to the shoulder bone, 49cm and a ...

I'm tempted to get this jacket as the thinner leather would suit the climate where I'm living in. But I'm holding back because of the sizing. The two US wings that I had (Hero and Imported Old Cow Legend) although small still fit rather roomy for me. Is the overall fit of this jacket smaller than th...

I can't believe the drape on your jacket! :o Great action shots!!! They really show the jacket off and make it come to life! :H: You look great!!! :clap: :clap: :clap: Michael :TOH: Thanks Michael! :TOH: It drapes well now ever since I applied Obenauf's on the jacket. Really, really soft. I SECOND ...

Harry, love how the jacket the fit on you! Looking great :tup: As for the zipper, it's probably from a different batch as mine is the same as Kwad's, with the brass zipper and extending all the way to the bottom and the pocket is more scalloped. You'll love the leather as time goes by, incredibly so...

Gorak,

That's a lovely jacket you have there and fit is really great on you. Totally Raiders!

Scott,

The jacket fits you like a glove! Tailor-made!

The color is just about the same as on the import Legend Cowhide, other than that, great looking jacket! Congratulations

damieneo

Very cool Damieneo! The jacket is looking great. With use, my jacket has become very soft and the grain is popping out as well. I've put two coats of Pecards Leather Cream (the gell like stuff without the wax) on mine and the leather looks even better (I've also been beating the carp out of it ever...

damieneo

awesome! for one second there I could have sworn you wore a lambskin raiders jacket. great drape! Holt, thanks! I had a double-take myself when I first received the jacket. It is so soft that it drape so well and made me wonder if this was a cowhide in the first place. Some of my colleagues were su...

damieneo

Well, here's fun shot of me in the Legend. Didn't plan to but my colleague asked me to put on the jacket and just appeared in a scene for a telemovie :[ As for SA gears.... ](*,) Was using only what I had in hand at that time. Anyway, the heat that day was like 96 Fahrenheit! Sauna Legend :roll: Mus...

damieneo

Travis,

Awesome looking...that jacket is tailor-made for you!

I think with all the pictures coming up of how the jacket fits, I feel tempted to get the striated lamb...my Import Legend Cow is a little roomier and I did hope for a jacket that fits like it did for Travis.

damieneo

I have been thinking of getting this Goatskin offering now that its on offer but after looking at the sizing specs chart and seeing they have no XS on offer, I am hesitant to give this a go. The smallest on offer - Small - seems large and too big for my build. My experience so far has been that the ...

damieneo

Ian, Thanks! :) Been wearing the jacket all day. Can't believe how comfortable and light it is. The lining is really silky soft. Holt, I will try to get some pictures of the overall fit on me :) Kwad, Thanks for the suggestion. It's hard to get pecard over here, but I guess I will need to order one ...

But it is closer to the US Made Cow Legend on the US Wings website. Other than that, in m...

damieneo

Kwad, the jacket looks amazing! It fits you well, almost tailor made to your specifications. I have the Hero jacket and if you say this is different ...Wow! :TOH: Can't wait to get mine this tuesday 21st when it clears local customs. Just can't wait to wear it to my local tv industry awards ceremony...

damieneo

Great to hear that, Kwad! My jacket has arrived a few days ago, but unfortunately got stucked at Customs. Waiting for clearance after duties paid

The Hero jacket passed through no problemo last time. Oh well... Looks like I'm getting it delivered on 21st December after all!!

damieneo

Question for Texan Scott or Dr. Evil, How long did it take for delivery from the time you ordered your jacket? I placed my order on the 7th of this month, yet have not received an order confirmation email or shipping info yet. The charge has already posted to my CC, just, no notification yet. Did y...

damieneo

Hi Eric!!! Please forgive me for throwing this out there, but in answer to your first question, "What jacket color do we really see?" We see what Spielberg shows us. ;) As you said, the jacket looks almost black in many places, but I think that has more to do with the distressing, dirt, l...

Well, there is one import jacket on display, but it is not an SL (I'm speaking of Weston's Cowhide). Is it fair to assume that the production SL Imports will be made from the same pattern as the cowhide imports? At least I really hope my jacket ends up looking like that as it is the jacket depicted...

damieneo

The dark grey/brown lining looks good, IMHO a little better than the reddish color seen previously. Is it too soon to ask for some dimensions, such as back length, pit-to-pit width, shoulder width, and sleeve length? I remember reading a post by Weston on the American made thread that he wouldn't p...

damieneo

That's a lovely looking jacket. Love how how nice the leather looks. This could be a great one for a dressier look. Seems like the slider and the zipper is standardised to look like the US made. Different from the Legend Cow imported seen on Weston's.

damieneo

I received my Import Legend just yesterday, and I have to say that for $195, it is a nice jacket. The hide texture, etc., reminds me alot of washed goat without the gray-ish undertone. Just a comparison. Wow! That's fast. I ordered yesterday, but yet to receive a shipping confirmation, and that wil...

damieneo

Doesn't seem like everyone got their Legend jacket yet. I've made my order online for the imported old cow this morning and straight away the COW member discount was refunded.

Hoping it will ship soon and will post some pics in here later

Question: What is the difference between the US made Legend and the Import Legend? Is there a tag inside the jacket that reads as such? :-k Weston had both and he did mentioned the differences between the two among the threads. The US made is trimmer. The sleeves are slimmer at the upper arm on the...

damieneo

I suppose the US Made legend cow will be the best in terms of snug fit. It looks like that from the pics on the USW site. The imported cow, although same pattern, looks like a little wider in the upper arm area and overall fit. Maybe it's just me, but I was a bit bothered by the rather quite large a...

damieneo

Looks great, Holt! As always, you wear all the jackets very well and you bring out the best in them

damieneo

Seems like the Legend is a big seller. The imported SL is ialready sold-out. What about the US Union COW and the Import Old Cow? Sarge, is it OK to let us know here at COW the remaining stock balance of the Legend COW? :notworthy: It might help someone like me, who is ordering from overseas, to know...

damieneo

the jacket looks great from the front and LOVE the texture on it... but wow, that backpanel got to be the slimmest panel I have seen on a jacket.. Thanks. Actually, the back panel looks the way it did because of the way the jacket is hanging from the hanger. :D The panel is the same as before. I sh...

This is how my jacket looks like now after being caught in 3 tropical storms and fully drenched, and multiple days out in the sun on a field trip. Sleeping in the tropical jungles, crawling on the ground, etc. Basically the whole gamut of rough wear in the jungles. Talk about being built like a tank...

damieneo

:-k Was looking at the pics of both import and US AC Legend. It's getting a bit harder for me to make a decision, since the fit on the US looks trimmer (for my size anyway) and a few details I like which Weston told me about such as the size of collar being slightly smaller and the colours on the US...

damieneo

Tollan I'll jump in before someone else does. Best email US wings,Myke is the guy to talk to. The discount WAS for people who went on a list to get the jacket,but it's worth asking them. It did sound to me like the discount was here to stay for COW members in some of Sarges recent posts. BUT PLEASE...

damieneo

Seeing how good the SL looks from Weston, I guess I'm going for the import Cow and the US SL

...unless someone posted pics of the US Cow, which would made me think again

.....aargh!

I asked Sarge the same yesterday and he replied.

made will be ready the First of Dec.

damieneo

I was dithering between a US made version and an imported cowhide legend jacket as I like the look of the scalloped pocket flaps on the import version but the one on your jacket looks much much better and makes me inclined to go for the US made. It's much more costlier for me due to the exchange rat...

Fenris, Yes, I think we both have the same head shape. Jenny suggested I elongate the sides by stretching it a bit to see how it fits. Sadly, it only made the fact that the hat is much looser and sits floppily on the ears. Indiana Bugs, Yes, it does seem too big, and I wasn't confident that the hat ...

damieneo

Or they may accept an exchange. I'm not entirely sure of their exchange policy, but seeing how they changed your order, and shipped it out without your okaying it, it sounds like it would be their responsibility to make sure you got a 56 if that's what you wanted. Also, if you get a hat that does f...

Mine is a small. Initially it was rather large for me, and I had a sinking feeling that I gotten a size too large but after a couple of weeks wearing it daily, my Hero AC seems to have shrunk to my body frame, fitting snugly. The measurements I gave were the "shrunken" size.

damieneo

The shipment is on its way and I should get it by this Friday if not tomorrow. The thing is I'm just concerned about the time it will take to shrink and conform to my fit. It may be too late for me to change if I waited some time and the size is still too big. I was reading through the thread and re...

damieneo

Wow, Sarge, that really does seem like a generous offer to us at COW. For me, I've been yearning for years for an Indy Style jacket before happily stumbling upon Indygear. Now it looks like all of a sudden I will be getting some :whip: Been eyeing the Legend Jacket for a while since I bought the Her...

Thanks my friends for the compliments. :D Well, I would keep it, I suppose, even though the gap does seem a bit wider. But anyway, yea, I've been wearing it around and it has started to fit in.
