Here are a few pictures of the Bill Kelso Hawaii jacket that I purchased from Tibor and received last weekend. Love the leather! I had a Relic Hunter a year ago in the grainy lamb (which I actually sold to Tibor) but this is completely different. Thanks again Tibor for a great deal on a great jacket...

It's a fantastic deal! I got the Hawaii jacket and I'll post some pictures when I get it. Thanks Tibor!

I currently have a custom Wested LC/CS in Copper Novapelle and I think it's really close to what we see screen. I had an off the rack in pre-distressed hide. It was a nice jacket but if your going for a Crystal Skull look then I would recommend custom copper novapelle.

Kubrik- Thanks for posting the pics. It looks great! Can't wait to get mine now!
Really like the color

Wow! Looks great!

Great looking jacket CRB...perfect fit !

I completely agree with Texan Scott. My chest measures a llittle over 45 and I got a 46
which fits perfect

Thanks croft! Yeah if your thinking about getting one I would definately recommend it! Love the pattern and
the leather Probably would be really nice in authentic or dark brown lamb too

Maybe heading by your way in a couple of weeks...I'll let you know!

My overall impression is this cut wears a bit long if you're used to Wested's Raiders or ROLA. I also would agree with this. I ordered my Hero a half inch shorter than old Wested Raiders and it's actually about an inch longer in the front. It's also over two inches longer in the front than my size ...

The one caution for you is the sleeves are sized to mortals. Because of that, they capture the look perfectly for guys with average arms. They also capture the rounded, off the shoulder slouch because of the smaller arm holes and the way the sleeve is set. I could measure the sleeve bicep when I ge...

Mine is a size 46. As far as the sleeves I just ordered my regular sleeve length I've had on other Indy jackets. Maybe a half inch or so longer than I'd like but I expect they will shrink up some.

I totally agree on the collar! already workin on it

First few pics:

Just picked up my Hero in original dark goat. First impression... WOW! Love the leather!! For me it's the perfect weight and
color. More info and Pics to come

Definately Raiders! LC a close second

I went with my usual jacket size of 46 so I'm curious to see how the Hero pattern looks in bigger size. So far I haven't seen any over a 44

Awesome! Which hide did you go with?

I went with the original dark goat same as Texan Scott and Zoltar's

Just received an e-mail from wested. Order has been "dispatched". I just placed my order last Friday...that was really fast!!

Just ordered one in original dark brown goat...can't wait!

Jacket looks great Gorak! Is that authentic brown or the new seal brown? It looks dark in the pics. How does the color compare to your old Dark brown lamb?

Looks like Wested is now offering the Hero in "standard" and "special". Standard is available up to size 48 in seal brown washed goat, seal brown lamb, dark brown lamb and predistressed hide.

Anybody know what the seal brown washed goat looks like?
