I don't actually have the Indy jacket, but I do have his "Vintage Adventure Jacket" which is similar. Basically, Magnoli's jacket quality is great, and I must say I love his dull-finish cowhide. Now, his Indy jacket is not the best for screen accuracy - I know that much. That's never been my concern, but stitch-nazi's will not be happy.

The quality is there, and the customized measurements are there, and he is always willing to modify the design. I've worked with him several times, and he aims to satisfy. The only reason I don't have his Indy jacket already is because my budget is limited and I already had a Wested.

Also, he claims that his lambskin is a little thicker and heavier than Westeds, so it might actually be closer to what Wested says the original hide was like. As soon as I can afford it, I'm getting one!

Is anyone else having problems with his site? It's taking like 10 minutes to load a page, and then it finally died on me altogeather with a "Cannot connect to server" error.

Make sure you're going to the right website. Check the Vendor section for a recent update. Otherwise, I know that Mag's sometimes has problems, but it's usually fixed by the next day.

Hmm... my website seems to be working (www.magnoliclothiers.com), but there is something fishy with the on-line catalog. :evil: I'll look into it...

Kind regards,

Yeah, it was mainly the catalog I was having issues with. I don't know if it matters, but several of the pages had pointers to different sites that appear to be down, so instead of clicking the link to Accessories and having it take you to "magnoli.dot.wherever" it tried directing you to "indymagnoli.dot.wherever" and then crashed with a 404 error.
