Yet Another Virgin Wested Owner!

Well, I have the jacket... and I have it for the Summit! It really is very nice, and much lighter than I was expecting, even if I did order Lambskin. I see what all the talk is about with the authentic brown. In poor lighting it just does not look like the screen jacket color. But in the proper light, I can't argue about the authenticity!

So, here's the vitals;
Auth. Brown Lambskin Raiders
Size 50 with an extra inch added to the front length, and shortened sleeves for my mutant stumps.
X-box strap stitching, with d-rings (I ordered the rectangles, but I don't care about the mix-up at all).
I also had them put an american zipper in, no leather facing, and NO inside pocket.

I will probably not be able to post pictures until after the NY Summit, but that might work out better, anyway.

Sounds good sir, you will get used to the colour believe me and any greyness it might seem to have goes away after a while.

I'm pretty sure he hasn't got any black/grey sliders right now as there have been no reports of people getting them for a while.

Chewie, congrats on the jacket. I am glad that it got here in time for you to wear it at the summit. I look forward to seeing it in person, next week.

....Ummm.....that jacket sounds like it is just about the right size to fit GraveRobber. I hope he doesn't try to mug you or anything. I hate when that happens.

......just kidding. Actually, Curator Rick is going to have some awesome opportunities planned for you to take some pics while you are there. You will have plenty of chances to get some good pics of your jacket to post when you get back home.

I'm really looking forward to it. I lost my first night's sleep last night thinking about the Summit. Anyway, now I have to save up for Goatskin TOD!

PS: Love that new-leather smell!
