Wested's ROTLA, TOD, or LC? Which do you prefer?

Post by Castor Dioscuri »

I'm trying to decide which jacket to get, but I can't quite seem to make up my mind. Given that the differences are very minimal between the three (according to Wested's site, the only differences is that TOD is 1" longer, and LC has a larger collar and press studs), I was wondering what the general consensus deems the favored of the three?

And I'm sorry if this has been answered before, but I've searched to no avail for an answer to what the definitions of storm flap, x-box stitching, action pleats, etc refer to... Anyone care to enlighten this neophyte? :D

TOD all the way!!! the best indy movie yet!!!

i'll be under the plymouth.

TOD isn't just an extra 1" longer if you really do your homework (see TOD cargo pockets thread for my specs). i am tempted to to get an LC as wested's current 'standard' patterns give quite a screen accurate jacket.

I would say it would have to be Raiders. It was the jacket that started it all.

Hey davy, your avatar is 6.4 times too wide and 4.8 times too high. Please shrink it a bit. :)

I prefer the Rotla, but if TOD jacket can be made like it was in the movie, it makes a beautiful jacket.

LC, I don't like.

I think I´m alone with my opinion :wink: but I prefer LC cause I like the larger collar and the press stud fastenings on the Storm Flap.
But ROTLA would be my second choice :wink:

First I only liked the Last Crusade Jacket but after buying a Raiders jacket.. finally I changed my mind. Raiders is the original and the 80's Fit is great!

much regards
