Jacket arrived (Collectors Edition Vintage Cowhide from US Wings) - absolutely perfect. Fit, color, everything - weight is great - should be wearable here most of the year.

Yes, I'm notoriously good (maybe that's bad?) about reviving long dead threads with thread CPR.

Dude - you are the infamous guy of "U.S. Wings" website fame. Nice work! And nice jacket. Is it still holding up well? (The "CE").

Cheers

Great looking jacket :clap:
I think the CE jacket is for me too.

Re: What Indy jacket is the best value for the money?

...The lack of a distressed finish would be the only thing that would lead me to believe the Wings would suit you better. Perhaps you could order that first and return it if you don't like the fit. A G&B goat would require some treatment to achieve a vintage look sans 10 years of wear... It's d...
