Boy, that is one of the best PB customs I've seen in a LONG time, my friend. Your gear has come a LONG way since I met you at the 2nd QM summit! :D

High regards! Michaelson

Very, very nice :D

I actually just received a custom Indy from Perters Bros. also. Perhaps the same exact style. Although I asked for a black ribbon and got brown.

You have done a great job on your whole attire!

I remember the first time I met you, Jeff. You had nothing in the way of gear except for your original Stetson Indy hat that looked like a bottle-cap on top of your head. I agree with Michaelson...You've come a LONG way baby! :wink:

P.S. That is still the BEST Wested I have EVER seen! Keep it safe.

Regards, Dr. J

Authentic goat? Looks as dark as the dark browns I've seen. Must be the shade. Looks good!

Hope they send my leather samples this time. I'm itching to get a Wested that the sleves are long enough but won't do it before seeing some real samples of the leathers.

Very nice gear. Impressive 8)

Will the large Idol fit in your bag? If so, I want YOUR bag. I carry so much stuff, or as they say, EDC so many things that my briefcase and bags weigh 20 pounds. :shock: I'm too old for that. :roll:

A wonder of trick photography. See how our friend is out of focus. Maybe I'm out of focus. Where am I?

Jeff,

It all looks great. I know it was a long ordeal, but now that you can enjoy a perfect jacket, I am sure that you feel that it was all worth it.

Croft,

That is one of the idols that Jeff made. They really are great looking.

I am fortunate to have one of Jeff's grails that I think are the finest I have seen. Considering that he made them from a mold from a screen used grail, you can believe that they are very "screen accurate".

hahah...thanks for clearing that up, KT...see, I thought the idol was BIG...now I know that Gobler is only 9" tall. :junior: Thanks for clearing that up! ;)

(Yes, we understand forced perspective...but that's just no fun. ;) I used this same lack of logic to prove to a co-worker, who was obsessive about thinking his head was TOO BIG, to prove to him that his head was in fact no bigger than a can of diet coke. Neuroses solved...

Sorry Jerry, that sounded like I was being obvious, it's a reference to an episode of Father Ted, I thought you might have seen it, anyway the scene goes something like this....

"FATHER TED: H*LL (Season 2 DVD, 1996) The priests head for their annual summer holiday on a caravan site. Ted takes advantage of the long, dull days to try to “finesse” Dougal’s limited knowledge of, well, everything. Picking up a tiny toy cow, Ted says: “Dougal, for the 50th time, these are small, and those (pointing out of the window at cows in a field) are far away.”

Image

Come on: forced perspective joke and a bovine reference how could I resist!

Gobler your jacket looks great, don't let Strider anywhere near it. ;)

Your Indy gear...

Fantastic gear Gobler! I envy all of you with your Westeds. That will be my next purchase and I plan to order it in about a month. Right after I order my AB fedora. The hat and the jacket are all I need.
