My New Wested Novapelle and Black Raiders...

Post by PSBIndy »

Just got my new Wested Novapelle yesterday! MUCH better than I expected. Fit is great! Color is great! (Has that classic "Raiders" color). What I love about Novapelle is that it's lightly distressed but still "dressy" enough for a shirt & tie. The cowhide leather is very soft and substantial (Great job, Wested!) Style is LC (I did not like the look of KotCS jackets....plus I did not like the movie). I contemplated about getting a TN, but in the end, I could not justify the price and I also did not like the style and color of the jacket (and I didn't like the movie). In the link below, I have also attached a picture of a black Wested ROTLA cowhide jacket I bought last year.....it's a fantastic looking jacket and something "different" from your usual brown Indy jackets.

Thanks.....Actually, it's a LC jacket (not CS). And yes, it has a bottom seam, but it really doesn't bother me since I hardly know that it's there. My pants are Wested.

Nice jackets, especially the black Raiders! It looks real unique to see it in a different color.
