Authentic Lambskin Q

Post by Cassidy »

Apologies if this has been addressed, but was the jacket-in-hiding that Peter found and then sourced the leather created specifically for 'Raiders?'

I would very much like to see this jacket. Did he ever post pics of it? Anyone here actually see it?

Cheers,
Cassidy

From what Peter told me, yes, it was an unfinished Raiders jacket that was never completed, and never delivered, found buried in a back room when they were moving to the new Little Wested House production location. The lambskin used was supplied to Wested from an English tannery, that has since gone out of business. He had to outsource to Italy to find a match. Wish he would take a picture.....Regards.

Thanks for the answer. Hmm...I wonder if a coupon for a free pint would convince him to take a pic...Hmm...
