Wngs vintage andventerer jacket

Post by damian della morte »

heres a wings, i think it has a last crusade feel to it (single stitching on the shoulders, collar a tad rounder, pockets larger and rounder at the bottom)) more then CS, even though they used a CS leather, its the Signature Series Indy-style Vintage Adventurer Jacket, it has a very large collar stand (1 1/2) and the pocket are very large too (7x9) but it seems to work for the jacket, also the pockets are swept back a good 2 1/2" from the storm flap, I think this seems to makes the jacket look nice zipped or unzipped

Here is my US Wings Collector Edition Signature Series Indy Style Adventurer Jacket. Really a great jacket. Soft and supple but, a bit heavier for my preference. Perfect for the winter and fall seasons.

After some closer examination, the storm flap snaps are indeed black. The zipper is an antique brass color.

Thank you, Michael. :TOH: But, your Tony Nowak "Last Crusade" jacket is IT. :notworthy:

As for the snaps, thank you again for the information, which I will take as a suggestion ;). The snaps do somewhat have a unusual contrast with the jacket. Well, time to see if I have some fine sandpaper readily available.

Both of these jackets look fantastic. I agree that they really carry the LC/CS vibe.

here is the snap and a strap from the above wings close up the zipper is pretty close in color to the rings but slighty antiqued
