I'm going to move this to Jackets as it may get better responces over there and it does involve Wested.

That picture on the M:I-2 page on the Wested site is of a single-breasted blazer like the one Cruise wore in the first Mission:Impossible. In Mission: Impossible-2, Tom Cruise wore a double-breasted black leather blazer which he stole from Sean Ambrose's head goon, Harry Stamp. So before you order decide which style you want.

I like the single-breasted blazer best but I would like to see it from the back before i order it ! How long is the blazer ? Does anyone know ?

I think it's the same deal with the Lethal Weapon jacket. I can't remember right now, but I'm pretty sure it wasn't worn in the first movie. Maybe in the second or third one, or even the fourth? It would be interesting to know if Peter did this specific jacket for one movie or clothes for all the LW movies. The one on their site looks pretty neat I think.

Good eye Swindiana. The leather 'Lethal Weapon' jacket was only worn by Riggs (Mel Gibson) in Lethal Weapon 4 as there were no other leather jackets in the earlier 3 films.

I'm actually looking at a Memphis Belle jacket (a bit warmer for the winter months). I'll let ya know how it turns out!

I loved MI-2 and the jacket. Did you here the director for MI-3 walked off. A bit off topic but not really.

I think that the Lethal Weapon jacket is pretty swanky myself.
