Feel bad for ya man..ive seen TONS of these kinds of threads..and this one will be shut down soon just like they were.I personally think there should be a STICKY just for AB missing orders for people to discuss and complain and vent..Maybe get some attention..Just report to BBB and try to move on.

eh,if anything its close enough to TOD..but yea..a good reblocking might make it a tad better.

youngjedi71

old young middle age..dont matter..what matters is face,body structure. You either look well in things like hats, OR,..you dont.

youngjedi71

that is ridiculous..and that is just keeping it rated G for the forums soft ears. send back..get money back..Chinese knockoffs would be better..

New.

Look how much nicer the soles are on th...

yep..these people want to charge 300-1000$ for a pair of shoes/boots...they better dangwell make them right and fix them right..

I like everything about my otr Wested except the jacket in my opinion is way too short. Needs to be another 3" longer to be actually comfortable and not rising up..I dont like that part at all. IF money was no object I would buy from another vendor and get it custom..

I got a phone call returned from a Mr Clark, who is a sales manager. He listened to my story and asked that I return them to his attention. I asked for his email as well, so I could go ahead and send him the pictures to look at. I've got them ready to drop off at the post office; I'm thankful they ...

Was recently complemented for my AB at Disneyland again by someone wearing a Dorfman Pacific. However, that someone tried to boast that he has the official Indiana Jones hat and the same as the one in the movies. Oh, how I wish Disneyland lets you bring a revolver or a whip into the park.... you sh...

Well I am at wits end and need some advice or direction. I just hit my 7 year mark on two hat orders. I have written Steve through the AB website email once a month since my initial post back in January 2015 from my initital email address from 7 years ago. I have also written from two other account...

Quite some years since i have posted on this forum, could not help but take a peak and see that steve delk is sending out new hats to recent orders. My order was about three computers or about eight years ago, full payment at the time. Tried a couple of emails over the years, learnt that steve was ...

OUCH..

you can buy Indy boots with hike soles..

youngjedi71

OP you gonna just have to get use to the shortness of the jacket OR send it back. Ive worn mine pretty much every single day from like Sep till just a week or so ago..AND I still hate how short its cut. Just because its a "jacket" doesnt mean its supposed to be so short. Its not a coat unt...

youngjedi71

Yes, and your post above is technically enough to have you thrown out of here for a bit. It read like the ranting of a 15 year old on Facebook... It had absolutely no bearing on the discussion. Most of us here are fairly intelligent adults, and try to act in such a way to reflect that. Some don't. ...

We could just do what other forums do, and let it all just run rampant, OK corral style... Then let's see how folks react... Dalexs I would much rather be able to speak my mind as to be censored all the time. Being shut down and made to hold in your opinion is what hurts more than speaking it..This...

yep..i had to pay like 23 or 24$$ when UPS delivered mine..makes me unhappy for sure.

MOD EDIT: Whereas this post had some merit in keeping focused on bigger issues in the world, it's tone and language are a violation of the site rules.

Not sure why this forum is so uptight about debates? WHo cares if it gets a little heated. I mean if every thread follows the rules then every thread consists of the same boring mess thats been talked about for 10 years. Same with people posting about being unhappy with Delk..Sometimes things need t...

youngjedi71

Well, I've ordered one in late Sept. Was told he'd ship in November with tracking number. No tracking number or fedora yet. Left a few emails to inquire. No responses. Heard that he's been responding to new order request emails. honestly i think this is what drives people mad the most..When you try...

youngjedi71

just wear the heck out of your jacket and soon it wont be shinny and squeaky..let it age even rolling around in sand,dirt,etc..Go on some hikes..

youngjedi71

YEP..unless people want a jacket that rides up and is way too short you should special order..I know my jacket is the same..AND im thinking there is zero difference from film jacket to film jacket from Wested..I have LC/CS and looks the same as yours OP..IM disappointed with mine,..BUT I wear it eve...

I caved and did the same thing about a year and a half ago on both of mine.

After almost 6.5 years my AB CS showed up on my doorstep last week. :lol: The color is such a deep dark rich brown. It fits like a glove but the front brim stuck straight out so I've been breaking it in by pushing it down like the scene in South America. I've been wearing it daily rain or shine, be...

youngjedi71

Great. I like the jacket so much that now I want another one in lamb! Will this never end? It will end if you let it! Don't go down that rabbit hole if you can avoid it. Take it from someone who has owned at one time or another 9 different Indy jackets in the same number of years. :oops: Be happy w...

I get a flying-squirrel effect when I lift my arms away from the body.

Well, I hope I like what I get. One of the first things I ever said was that I wanted an Indy goatskin jacket. I guess if I don't like it, I can always return it and get the lambskin. The goatskin is my favorite though so I hope I like it... I wanted to return mine..and they told me it would cost s...

youngjedi71

I wear my LC/CS goatskin everyday I can..but i'll never be happy with it..Wested gives false advertisement "to me"..That jacket looks NOTHING like the pictures and is NOTHING like a CS jacket..Add another 3" to the length of the jacket..Add a real collar to it..and fix the color..THEN...

Jedi, you don't even have it on a hat stand for display? nope..leaving it out it collects dust,lint etc..so it stays in the box..

good going Penman on your part ..Maybe since you all figured it out,you can post what the issue was "if its not something private?"..would be interesting to know.. It's exactly what I thought it was. I went via phone to cut down the time, that's all. Oh..good..thanks for being here to help

You can't rely on the behind the scenes footage, most of it is shot in 16mm some of it in 8mm and it was stored in really bad conditions the color is incredibly poor.

nobody is attacking..Just stated what came to mind..maybe get some red powder or dust whatever some prop shop might sell ..dust it..might give you that red tint you are looking for. :H: for me as long as the felt is brown its close enough..What gets me is Indy's hat brim looks 3"+ but hat maker...

So I know filters may or may not have been used in filming raiders. There seems to be a very red color to the fedora. A rusty red. My AB does not have that. Is there any fedora out there that gets that right? I have seen some old threads that speak to rabbit fur showing more of the red tint. Dude.....
