Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Gee,I´d really like to have Todd´s jacket but I can´t figure out the size...
I´m 6foot 1inch ,44"chest so which one is it...Large or Xlarge?!

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Definitely XL for a 44" chest BUT!
XXL for the height.
I am 5'10" and 44" XL is just at the right length for the Raiders jacket.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
To make sure,I´d like to see some exact numbers from actual jackets..sizes Large to XLarge;the current run mostly,if you please.
1.chest,sleevelength(cuff to seam),backlength and shoulders(top of backpanel)
The main reason for this is that I´d like to copy the Raven Bar Look,you know,the snug look and Todd´s Standard size Large seems to fit the bill, at least for a 44"-chest cuy like me,how much room does the Large or XLarge have to move anyway?

OK I am 5'10" but 42" in the chest and 208 lbs. so I should consider an XL as well?

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Guys, I'm 5'10" and 44 Reg. and I wear a Large Todd's Standard. I highly recommend it as an XL is WAY too big in the chest! If you are the same size as me you will be "swimming" in the chest area of an XL. If you wear a 42" DEFINITELY get the Large!

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
We've been having some rather mild fall/winter weather in my area so I've been wearing my Todds Jacket (with my Henry of course!) as much as possible and I just keep falling in love with this thing!
It really is such a comfortable jacket and I often find myself not wanting to take it off when I'm indoors.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
I'm extremely glad to see so many nice things said/written about Todd's Jacket! I have wanted this jacket for the longest time now and since I finally have some steady income coming in I'd like to get one real soon. I've really done my research on other jackets but reading all the positive things about Todd's, plus being a really good price, I've narrowed it down to getting this one. This will be my first Indy jacket and I'm really excited!
Now this is where I need some help from you guys, cause I have no idea which size to go for? I'm around 6' 2", 150lbs, 38-39" chest... yeah I'm just a skinny fella. I was thinking of going with the Large, mainly cause my sleeve length is right there with the 35 1/2" he has listed on his site. Then again I don't want this thing to be so big that I am swimming in the thing. lol So what do you guys think? I guess if worse came to worse I can get the Large, if it's too big just trade it in for the next size down.
Thanks so much for your help guys!
James

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
I have a medium, I'm 5'10" 165lbs 38R size jacket size and it fits me just perfect. I would say get the large - you may have to have it altered by a local drycleaner if you are inbetween sizes, but I'm sure Todd will accept an exchange.
Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
So,Kentucky...where are the pics of your jacket and what size did you order!?

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread-soon to be
ive done some searching around, and I know that Todd's brand is "Coyles", but what does the designation 'custom' mean, other than the measurements? I have an opportunity to get on and since im a larger guy finding one in my measurements is a bit of a challenge to being affordable. Its a cowhide, almost new, cotton lining. Todd's Costumes website doesn't seem to have anything on it about making custom jackets, but I see 'custom' in the forum all the time. What does that mean?

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Todd did offer custom jackets in the past ( He has talked of starting makeing them again).
Basically they were made in the US rather than overseas as the standard jacket is.
The custom jackets had a choice of leathers,the size was "custom" to your specs,and by all accounts wereare very well made jacket. Much better than the Todds standard.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
thanks, Daymond-thats kind of what I was angling for. Do we know the maker that he had for them, was it anyone that is 'known' to make jackets? Not really important, but curious, thats all.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Yes, they are made in house by my talented team who also make our other custom leather wear - Xena dresses, boots, scabbards, etc. and our leather Gladiator armor and boots. We don't advertise them because, honestly, business-wise, they're not worth the trouble. After subtracting $100 for leather and other materials, the day and a half for labor, and the hours of customer service involved, it's a break even deal. And then the returns and alterations (usually because we're given faulty measurements) and then we're losing money. We do consider special requests, if it sounds like a straight-forward job. Really, we'd have to charge $800 to make it worthwhile. Worth it? I don't know. They are top-notch and the leather we use is much nicer than what you get in a department store.
Reasons for returns? "the left pocket flap is too grainy for me" or "My sister was attacked by ninjas and I need the money back" or "I just don't like it". I know, we're crazy for accepting returns on custom made items.
If you need one, give us a call and we'll see what we can do for you.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
So, what hides do you have available for the custom, how much are they and do you offer options like liner materials and inside pocket configurations? Lots of questions, I know!!!

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Hi, Todd! Thanks for replying. Im getting one from a fellow collector, I think. He's been really helpful, and he *was* a bigger guy (think 6+, 250+) so my finding one for a 52" chest and being 5'10" this is a great find. Ive just been looking for details since im more familiar with US, GB's, and Westeds.
Thanks for jumping into the pond!

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
We have lamb (very nice) and we can "wash" it which gives it a more casual look. We have cow, and goat. My favorite is the washed lamb. We can also put a layer of fleece or flannel under the lining for cold weather wear. Custom linings - we have cotton silesia and nice synthetics. If you want something special, you'll need to send it to us or you'll need to pay for us to go shopping for you. special pockets - we'll just have to charge an hourly rate for the extra workl.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Todd, thanks as always for being a Vendor who is so forthcoming with available information...
I'm curious, too... can anyone here lead me in the direction of a photo of a Todd's Jacket in the "washed lamb"?
I'd really like to see what that looks like.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Eric, don't you already have a Todd's? From what I recall it's one of the best looking ones around
Anyway, the new ones will be in even quicker once Todd starts getting low on the inventory he has...so Mitch should stop hem-hawing around already

so why don't you pop on one he's got in inventory too! I already told Mitch if he buys one and doesn't like it, I'll buy it off him...but you're bigger than me so...

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
I'll admit it: I'm guilty of being an overly cautious buyer...
But your words are duly noted, RB... and I do feel the "pressure" (more than anything, though, I'm simply tempted by how nice these jackets look)...
but I'll confess, I AM still "hemmin' & hawin'" about the leather...
Can't help myself... sorry

i thought i remember hearing that todd had some rediculous number of jackets in his inventory and that it would be a looooong time before he got a new batch in. on top of that, he couldn't be sure that his specs would even be correct. does anyone else recall that or am i mistaken?

I recently purchased a used HH Wested from a member here, and because of weight it's a great fall/winter jacket for this North Dakota weather...
but I still LOVE my Todd's. It just SCREAMS Raiders to me when I put it on...it's just what the movie jacket was (a couple minor details aside).
Can't wait to see your pics Zane!
Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Hi Todd,
I have bought quite a few things from you and I can only give you the highest compliment on excellent products and service!
Your Raiders Jacket is simply AWSOME.
Keep up the good work!
Many thanks from down under,

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
I have a Todd's standard size L. It is a great fit. I am 5'11", 185lbs, chest size is a 42. I love how light weight this jacket is because it forms well to my frame and is a perfect spring/fall jacket. Plus I can stuff it in a shoulder bag.
The sleeves are long enough, the chest is just right. Zipped, it is a snug fit - not too tight. I will post some pics soon.
EDIT: I threw up some quick and dirty pics. Sorry for the quality, but it gives you a good idea of the fit.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Here's my XXL Todd's Standard. I can't really zip it up since it kinda pushes out in a weird way in the chest. But the Raiders jacket is only supposed to be zipped up half-way if that, if I'm not mistaken. I love the jacket, $149 shipped can't go wrong plus its lightweight, which is great for FL.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Hey JC,
As you know I have a Tood'S as well. So..... I used Lexol on mine and it did wonders! It has formed to my body better. Also I'm getting very nice wrinkles on the sleeves. Just thought I would share my newest info on my jacket.
Cheers,
Zane

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
I heard Todd provides made to order jackets? I saw indyclone mention it on youtube in his jacket review...
BTW... I just noticed Todd's Jacket is available through ebay and his website...I checked the sizing...and there seems to be a discrepancy...e.g. small on ebay has a sleeve length of 24.5" while on the website it's 33/5"? Or maybe i'm reading something wrong?

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Just two different ways of measuring the sleeve length. The first is simply from the arm/shoulder seam down to the cuff,
the latter is from the centre of the collar at the back down to the shoulder then down to the cuff. The latter is the better way of measuring, since it takes into
account shoulder width, which can make a big difference in how the sleeves fit.
Not sure why Todd uses one on one site and the other on Ebay though.

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
Any word on Todd's being offered in skins other than "lightweight lambskin" as described on their website? Still waiting for either a goat or cowhide option.
Also, what are the physical dimensions (shoulder width, sleeve length, pit to pit and back length) for their Large size?

I would suggest calling with your measurements and let them tell you what's the right size.

Medium if you want a looser, but not baggy, fit.
Small if you want a well-fitted, but not tight, fit.
I have one of each and that's how mine fit me.

Well mountaineer, going by the photos posted I'd say the medium looks like the better fitting of the two.

Awesome pictures mountaineer, judging from the pictures, the medium does look better. Do you have your measurements handy though?

Re: Todd's Jacket Owner's Thread
James,
Height: Between 5'7" and 5'8". (Depends on if I slouch or not.)
Weight: 150-155.
Suit coat size: 38.
I like them both, but for different reasons.
The medium is the more "correct" (for lack of a better word) in my eye in achieving the "look". It's got a great leather, both in color and grain.
The small is one I like to wear when not going for the Indy vibe and just want a leather jacket. It was one of Todd's early jackets and has the less-grainy (some would say it is pleathery) leather.
I know from experience that (p)leather type has been rectified. I also believe that he had stated those early jackets were not properly sized. (Over time it did get short in the sleeves, hence the medium.)
A call to Todd would confirm both points, but my belief is that both "issues" have been rectified since February 2008, when I purchased (and was photographed in) the small.
