Great pictures, yes it is a good fit.
Have you done any distressing yet? Do you plan to?

Ah Pandora! At last, looking good! Why is it that you ladies look better in the gear than we do? D'oh, forgot it's because you look better than we do anyway!
The body length is perfect, sleeves might be a touch long/wide but I've found that might mean difference between being able to wear a shirt or a thin fleece under it.
Hope the job situation is improving.
Best regards,
Kt.

Those sleeves will eventually ride up a bit more on goatskin. At least mine has as time has passed.

It's a standard jacket raiders style with special messurements but no further mods.
I don't plan any distressing - I could never ever harm my wested. I will let it distress the natural way. I like the sleeves and the whole jacket to be a little bit loose because I want to wear it in winter and need some space to wear a sweatshirt under it.
btw: some words to the rest of the gear:
the hat: donated by Ace (it's a noname made in china - not by Lao che ;-))
the bag: WPG replica distressed, buttons changed
the strap: TAG
the shirt: bought in a normal shop, nothing special
the trousers: also normal cargostyle trousers
@KT: thx, yes - job situation is OK at the moment.

Very nice pics, Claudia!
Folks, I had the chance to see the jacket in person, it's really nice and fits her perfectly.
When Claudia and me went out for dinner, many people were staring at our jackets (mine is distressed and Claudia's is not). Funny if you ask me

Were you both in full gear or just the jackets? I just have this funny image of the both of you eating at a restaurant dressed as Indiana Jones...Which is pretty much how I dress at restaurants

That's the funny thing: We were NOT dressed as Indy, we just had our jackets and normal streetwear. Maybe they thought "from which part of the country do these guys come?"
Anyway, we had a nice evening...

Pandore, Great jacket! And I like that slightly looser fit.
Gee, you sure have done a lot of traveling in that jacket already!

Awesome setup. The jacket looks great, and I am glad you enjoy it. I like the pic of you in front of the Pyramid.

You look hot, in those last two shots too!
Great jacket! And as a wise man once said only minutes ago, the sleeves will ride up a bit and wrinkle beautifully.
(The sleeves, not Michaelson.)

Before I read your and erri´s post I wanted to say the same. Yes, Pandora, you look like Gilian Anderson. You can take this as a compliment
And your jacket looks great, too.

Boy am I slow. I just saw this thread now.
Claudia you look stunning in your new jacket, what a nice fit. Im glad to see you still got my old hat.
Indygear certainly does work for both guys and girls.
It will be a pleasure to see you in gear at the next summit.
Cheers
Ace
