Random Indy jacket in Germany

Hey all, in Germany at my daughter's swim meet and saw a local magazine with this little gem on the cover. The jacket looks like a Nowak to me. I've been out of the game for a while but I like the gear

Probably not a Nowak - zipper pull doesn't look like it goes to the bottom. I would guess an early Wested, pretty nice.

No idea. If that's an early Wested, than it is one of the best I've seen. I don't recall any having nailed the pocket flap shape like that. Leather looks a bit thicker than Wested's typical lambskin offerings. Collar appears wider, more like the Hawaii/South America jacket.

I'm pretty sure that's a US Wings Legend US-made in their thick lamb. I have one too, and the leather is my favorite by far. Cool pic!

I think so too; I had one that looked EXACTLY like that. Pretty cool find!

Did the Legends have the zipper pull on the correct side? That's not the usual Wings MO.

The thick edged flaps do look like Wings tho.

Thats a wings Legend jacket

As Kt said, the zipper pull appears to be on the correct side (left) side, although maybe we just can't see it. I remember Wings making a fuss about not switching up the zipper.

I'm liking this jacket !

Ya, there's no way that's an early Wested. Those pocket flaps look way too good. I say USW

Isn't that a picture of Indiego Jones (or the guy he uses to model his S&J jackets)? Looks like him to me. See for reference: http://s1357.photobucket.com/user/indie ... w.jpg.html

Nope, not me.

Could the jacket be a Magnoli...?

Cheers.-

Thanks indiego.
Magnoli: That's what I'm now wondering. It looks very like the USW Striated Lambskin (Schott made) that I have but mine has the zip is on the US sid. Also, the one in the picture is nickel coloured; mine is brass coloured. Of course, the guy could have got the zip replaced.
