Jacket on display.
Hi gang,
just thought I'd show you a few pics of my LC Wested on display (my wife bought me the tailors bust as an early Christmas gift).
Hope you like them.

Re: Jacket on display.
YES!!!
Love it. your jacket is one of my favortie LC jackets. it may not be a clone of the LC jacket but it aint far of either. love it. and this just prooves it again, brown lambskin IS the best skin for LC.

Re: Jacket on display.

Re: Jacket on display.
I hope you guys who have doubted about this being the closest you can get to a LC pattern like I have been saying all these years start to believe. YES, some details may be off but this pattern has to be identical to the LC jacket seen on screen. come on, LOOK!

Re: Jacket on display.
Agreed, it is very close. Shame, just a bit more attention to detail from Wested and it could have been perfect.
Re: Jacket on display.
Exactly,
and thats why I really put some heavy duty work into making out the details. jan/feb I will have the new LC jacket I hope.
I hope they will save the specs like they did with the ''agent5'' raiders specs so all can enjoy.

Re: Jacket on display.
Wow! That looks perfect! One of the best, if not THE best, LC jackets I've ever seen! Well done.
Re: Jacket on display.
Fantastic looking LC on a worthy display. Well done.
(If you guys want to see a sad excuse for an LC you should see my 1999 Wested "LC"....)

Re: Jacket on display.
Wow, that is just simply a beautiful jacket, perfect distressing, I would say the best LC jacket I have seen that replicates what is in the movie. How long have you had this Wested? I really want to give Wested a chance on a LC jacket I just am not sure how it is going to turn out. I would hope something like yours, obviously minus the distressing. Thanks for sharing, wear it well.

Re: Jacket on display.
well, guys, I was talking to my wife and she wanted to give it to me a jacket for X-mas. ah, my baby..do I love her
it will probably be in Lambskin or that Aniline cowhide they hopefully still have. that was the most PERFECT skin ever besides lamb for LC. If I go for lamb it has to have a thick look and feel to it to replicate the LC look.
so, I'll send over my LC specs to wested. Hopefully they will follow and when I have it I'll give my review on the jacket. But I dont think I am going to send my super LC spec list I updated 2 weeks ago. it's REALLY big and I dont think they want to put that much time into making my jacket. It would probably cost extra and its a gift from my wife.. so?..., so just the basic key details. That's good enough for me.
I'm calling them tomorrow

Re: Jacket on display.
Thanks folks,
some of you have asked for information on distressing, so I have updated my post in 'care and distressing' (my process for distressing Wested LC (pics).
