Received my Todd's custom

Got my Todd's custom in the washed lambskin from UPS yesterday. First of all let me say that I placed the order and received my jacket within a week! Second but more importantly, the jacket is a beautiful work of art. I will post pics when I get a chance later this weekend. The leather reminds me of the early Wested predistressed jackets(Circa 2000) but much darker brown. The lining consists of a cotton body and satin sleeves. When I look at it it just screams Raiders. I own one Wested(which I love) and have owned 7 in the past but this jacket comes the closest to what's seen on screen in Raiders. Definitely worth the cost. I like this one so much I'm considering getting a custom cowhide from Todd at a later date.

These will have to do for now. I'll get some pics of me wearing the jacket when I get a chance.

Wow, the finish on that leather looks really exceptional, less shiny than the stock version. Also, it seems the leather is more substantial although it also appears that it somehow retains the drape quality. I may have to get a custom lamb or cowhide someday. It will be interesting to see how it looks on you.

one of the biggest differences i see is the pocket scallops look alot better. I know they could easily make the stock versions as perfect too, but maybe thats a way they can entice people to buy the custom version.

I too just pre-ordered one as well. Thanks to this forum I have been able to save alot of moola. I almost bought a Wested but as much as I really wanted one I had to divert funds to other props!!!

Anyone know how soon the XLs will be available? They state backordered until Feb/March which is NOW.
