Who out there has an Indy Jacket from Magnoli? I would love to see some pics... I haven't really heard anything about them... Details? SA? etc.

I owned the prototype, now sold - fantastic jacket, high quality craftmanship all the way.

Indiana G · Post by **Indiana G** » Fri May 18, 2007 5:48 pm

why are you selling? it looks like it fits quite nice. looks like it has a nice fitted (80's fittish) look to her.

i don't like the 2 pic sleeve panels though.

Those pockets look a bit off, otherwise a reasonable product (to look at).

Here are two shots of my new pockets, first with flash, the second without:

The leather is a very nice, relatively thick lambskin.

Kind regards,
Indy

wow, that are great pockets. got any pics of the whole jacket? would love to see that.

CM · Post by CM » Fri Oct 12, 2007 6:33 pm

Looking good, Indy.

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 8:33 pm

Here is the full jacket. I'm playing around with making a vintage-adventure jacket hybrid, blending a few styles... so this one has a pointier collar than the standard Indy jacket:

Kind regards,
Indy

Indiana G · Post by **Indiana G** » Fri Oct 12, 2007 9:57 pm

you got the indy iv collar going on on that mags. very nice. looks like really great hide as well. she's meeting the storm flap correctly as well.

well done sir

(ps - if you don't like me calling you mags, just say so and i'll stop....its an automatic hockey locker room instinct that i have)

Hey Magnoli my friend,
In those pockets I think you need to move the seam a little bit closer to the edge. It will look great.

Doctor_Jones · Post by **Doctor_Jones** » Sat Oct 13, 2007 8:08 am

that's a great looking jacket! thanks for sharing.
looks beautiful.

Nice

What material is that prototype made from, Indy?

Regards! Michaelson

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Thu Oct 18, 2007 3:58 pm

It's lamb... though feels heavier and thicker than other lamb I've seen.

Kind regards,
Indy

Post by **Michaelson** » Thu Oct 18, 2007 3:59 pm

It's a VERY nice looking material. Sounds like the old hide that Peter used to get hold of back in the day....

Regards! Michaelson

Magnoli

How about some "action" pics.... You know, a real person wearing one of these babies!

What other hides/colors do you have available?

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Thu Nov 01, 2007 4:57 pm

The one in that photo was way to big for me to model personally, but I'll get some new pics up when my new jacket comes in (which will be a true vintage-Indy hybrid). As for leathers and colors, I have goat, lamb and cow available (prices go up in that order) in most colors.

Kind regards,
Magnoli

Here is my newest Vintage-Styled Adventure Jacket:

This was made in a very nice thick cowhide with a dull finish. You'll also notice that I used a plaid wool lining for the body to add to the vintage look. This jacket will end up being around $595 (shipped). I'll be adding it to my site shortly. I'll try to get some shots of me wearing it up tomorrow.

Kind regards,
Magnoli

Nice Indyesque styling and looks like a beautiful leather.

Castor Dioscuri · Post by **Castor Dioscuri** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 1:04 am

The back is certainly a departure... But it looks excellent!

St. Dumas · Post by **St. Dumas** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 1:09 am

I think the back looks cool. And the lining is great too.

Hi Magnoli,

Looks great. What are the pocket measurements?

binkmeisterRick · Post by **binkmeisterRick** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 8:19 am

Sweeeeeeet. I really love the back and straps of that jacket. Gotta ask, is there an inside pocket?

Satipo · Post by **Satipo** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 8:34 am

That is exactly how Indy's jacket would have looked in a parallel universe. Nice job!

djd · Post by **djd** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 9:20 am

Very nice. How Indy's jacket would have looked if he'd appeared in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow!

Indiana G · Post by **Indiana G** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 12:06 pm

that is a beautiful jacket. the back is very smart and clean. well done indy. that is a great vintage mod to the indy design......you got me reach'n for the credit card

nicktheguy · Post by **nicktheguy** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 12:18 pm

Those action pleats look like they'd remain functional too!

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 2:28 pm

CM wrote:What are the pocket measurements?

About 6 3/4" wide and 7 3/4" tall.

binkmeisterRick wrote:Gotta ask, is there an inside pocket?

There are three.

Kind regards,

Curse you, Magnoli, for showing me this one AFTER we completed our project!!!

Regards! Michaelson

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 5:29 pm

Sorry, Michaelson... there's always room in the closet for one more jacket.

Here are two shots of me wearing the jacket:

Kind regards,
Magnoli

Post by **Michaelson** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 5:34 pm

BRAVO!!!!

HIGH regards! Michaelson

rhboyd · Post by **rhboyd** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 5:48 pm

holy moley!!!

It's a thing of BEAUTY!!!! I totally ADORE the lining...

Guess I'll start putting away the pennies!!!

-r!

Indiana G · Post by **Indiana G** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 6:52 pm

geez indy, that looks better on a person than it does on the manequinn (sp?)......you have a real winner there, and that's coming from an SA nut like me. i think you may just convert me.

Post by **Indy Magnoli** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 7:02 pm

Thanks! If I had been there in 1980 to help with costuming... this is how the jacket would have turned out. I'm not sure how I would have managed that at four years old, but I'm sure I would have thought of something.

Kind regards,
Magnoli

CM · Post by CM » Tue Nov 06, 2007 7:05 pm

That looks very impressive. Can you do one in a good quality goatskin?

Izza veerrrry nize!

Geez, the LAST thing I can afford is another jacket, but this one's a beaut! Okay, folks, gather round. I need to "borrow" some more wallets.

I still have those videos of your high school 'costume efforts', so you've been at it for a while, haven't you?

Oh, dear me! That is one beautiful jacket! Curse you Magnoli! I'll have my revenge!

I love that new jacket Magnoli

Great work :!:

nicktheguy · Post by **nicktheguy** » Sun Nov 11, 2007 7:19 pm

Just great! Now I gotta decide between a second Wested or a Magnoli....both perhaps?,,,,,AAARRRGGHHH....

Castor Dioscuri · Post by **Castor Dioscuri** » Sun Nov 11, 2007 7:25 pm

Any chance Magnoli offers a lightweight vegetable tanned leather?

nicktheguy · Post by **nicktheguy** » Sun Nov 11, 2007 7:53 pm

I'm starting to feel like Magnoli is like Willy Wonka....anything you could dream of, he has his finger on it.

CM · Post by CM » Sun Nov 11, 2007 8:12 pm

Can anyone here tell me what their Magnoli jacket is like and how long the waiting period was for them?

Sometimes, I wish he'd just say "No, I can't do/get that." It would make life much more affordable. Then I smack myself in the face for my blasphemy!

I'll have to double check... but I'm fairly sure this leather is just that:

As for the wait time, jackets have been going out within three weeks in the last two months.

I can't do horsehide... though the cow used above feels awful close.

Magnoli, that new adventure jacket is just the jacket I have been looking for. My good friend Dan has an original 1930's jacket very similar to that. I have always loved that jacket. Let me tell you this new jacket you have created is very tempting to me. It's so tempting I know can't resist forever. It's a perfect mix between the Indy and the 30's jacket Dan has.
