my wested goat jacket with the rest of my gear:)

Post by Holt »

Hi I recentley got a standard goat with special mods on it.just wanted to let you gys see how it fits with the rest of my Indy gear :D

this jacket was so stiff and heavy.I throwed it in the tumble no heat.just let it tumble and let it break in.
I recentley also got some pecards wich I rubbed on the jacket.it became so soft.
the jacket feels like wearing a lamb.it became much lighter in weigth.I dont know why but it did...

the draping became so good in this jacket.really soft and still tuff like a chain mail :D

well here are some pictures of it.I wanted to look what it looked like with the rest of my gear.still whaiting on a camptown hat from Ken
here are some pictures.

Thanks B.O.:D

the pants are westeds wich I am really happy with.

the whip is todd's 8'12 plait but I am getting a new one.I thinking of pageys :D

the whip had the wrong color on it so I redyed it with a leather dye.
it looks more used now and resembles the movie whip more

That's certainly a good looking jacket, GDM.

I'm thinking maybe I should take serious look at Wested's goat.

It wasn't bad. Went for a couple of evening walks in a U.S. Wings goat and was perfectly comfortable.
