Thanks for that piece of info RCSignals. I'm about to order a TOD jacket from Wested myself, do you have any other spec details that I should include with my order? I know Holt says that you need to specify a lot of specs if you want an SA Raiders Jacket - does this go for the TOD too?

No specs needed, though you can order it with a cotton lining now.

Thanks :) - but did the original have a nylon or cotton lining?

The one I saw had nylon.

Some people were bemoaning the fact that it was nylon on this reproduction.

They weren't bemoaning that it was Nylon on the Wested reproduction, but that it was rice paper thin and comes apart at the seams just putting the jacket on.

An unfortunate occasional downside of using a 100% SA material.

Actually been wearing my 5 year old lamb the last few days... perfect for the 50-60 degree F temps we are having about now. I'd totally forgot how fantastic this jacket feels and why I fell in love with it in the first place.

BTW we have hijacked this thread long enough.

Back to the Nowak jacket.
