Which one should a buy from, Wested or Indy magnoli

Post by mobius »

I was wondering, I´m thinking about geting a jacket, shirt and pants. And I can´t decide whom I should buy it from, wested or Indy Magnoli. The price is not that important to me.

I really like what I´ve seen on the magnoliclothiers site, and people have been praising Wested.

Please help.

Shirt and pants from Magnoli (100% English Wool for the pants) and jacket from Wested!! That's how I have my gear and I love it.

In Christ,

The Wested jacket is really a high quality piece of gear. Really soft leather and well made, for example the collar of lesser-quality leather jackets is all stiff and stands away from the neck, but the Wested's collar is soft and hugs the back of the neck like a cotton shirt's collar. Besides, Wested makes jackets for all kinds of other movies, such as Pearl Harbour, so it really is a company specialized in high quality movie jackets. A jacket has really to be well made to appear well on the screen. Cheap or badly cut jackets show right away on the screen.

Not Pearl Harbour, but Memphis Belle, and some other movie jackets. Anyway, the quality really is amazing.
