WOW You made my day....Now for some very bad news.. We are sold out of Med. and it is only the 7th of Dec. Not a very good story! I will see if I can have more made but it does not look good.I honestly did not think we would be sold out of some sizes this soon.. Guess a lot of COW members knew a good thing when they heard about this Legend Pattern being made into a Kids Jacket and the Major COW discount.

WOW! I'm glad I bought the med for my son last week. I just received it today and my wife and I are amazed of the quality and work put into it! Fantastic! My son is going to flip!!!
Can't wait to see my SL USA Made, more than ever. I showed my pop the Horsehide A2 I picked up from you guys last week and he was highly impressed! (which is not easy to do at times.. LOL!)
Many thanks Sarge!

I bought my 2 grandsons USW kid's Indy jackets (Originals) early this year and they looked great up against my Nowak CS jacket. I was very impressed with the craftsmanship.

:shock:
WOW!
Sorry to hear that the Mediums are now Sold Out but I am also unbelievably relieved!
I called U.S. Wings last night (about 6:30 my time) and spoke directly to Myke (with Sarge speaking up - and offering info - in the background) and ordered a MEDIUM in the Kid's Raiders Jacket for my son.
Payment was quickly arranged, sent and confirmed!
*Phew!*
Now I read that within a couple of hours (according to the time Sarge posted) it looks as if the availability of this great-looking jacket -specifically in Medium- has come to a close... talk about making it under the wire!
I feel like a big stone door was rolling down to close off a corridor and I jabbed my arm back under just in the nick of time to grab my hat!
:D
Thanks again Sarge!

You are one lucky person!! Did you know the Kids Legend XL will work for a person that is 125LbS.. That is Our Shipping Managers weight.. Lisa... You talk about a deal...
OKay.. I had one size Med. Kids Legend set aside.. Just for that COW member that really needs it.. Who ever calls me before I go home can place their order.. This one is the last of the last and I don't know when We will have our next shipment! I have all the other sizes but of course they also will be gone soon.

I don't want to bother Sarge with another email, since I am sure everyone at US Wings is very busy right now, but does anyone here know if there were any supply problems or anything with size Large Kids's Legends?
I know they sold out of Mediums earlier in the month, but this thread went cold after that. I ask because I ordered one for my son on November 20, and it now looks like we will not be having a very leathery Christmas, as the jacket does not appear to have shipped yet. Any thoughts?
It's not really that big of a deal, I guess, if it doesn't arrive before Christmas, I just am curious, and need to have some idea if I should keep looking for it to ship, or if I should be looking for a stand-in gift for my son to hold him over until it Does arrive.

I'm sure the best response here will be "Call Wings and Ask Them", but, like I said, they are likely very busy and I don't want to bother them right now with something that isn't really THAT important in the grand scheme of things, and am hoping that maybe someone here has already asked a similar question and can pass along any info to me.

Thanks!

Man, too bad these weren't around when I was in high-school. At the time I graduated, I was 5'8" and weighed 130 pounds soaking wet. I soooo would have rocked a kids legend jacket! :lol:

My son's jacket arrived today!

*Phew* JUST in the nick of time, too!

Sarge & Myke, it looks gorgeous! It's really something.
Thanks very much for helping me play Santa, guys!

A few shots of my Junior Adventurer in his new -and unexpected- U.S. Wings Jacket!
:)

He went bananas for it! And when I said I wanted to take a few photos, the little guy dashed off to his room to pull on a pair of khaki pants and one of his hats!
I told him we could just take a shot with him in his jeans and t-shirt, but he said "No way, I want to finally get to look more like the real deal!"
(And it's also worth mentioning that - just like his old man- as soon as several FRONT shot photos had been taken, he was quick to adjust his stance for a profile shot and back shot as well!)

Thanks (again) Myke and Sarge!
:TOH:

That's fantastic!
Their hurry to put those jackets on RIGHT THIS SECOND says volumes about how excited they obviously were to WEAR 'em!
GREAT photos, Travis!

My sons jacket came yesterday (customs delay and tax to pay :x ).


WOW the quality is amazing,the leather,the construction its just sooooooo good.

He took it right out of the box,put it on,and it stayed on untill bed time!

The one thing that did make me smile the most is that being English he did struggle with the zipper pull being on the right :Plymouth:

Made me smile because I have jackets with pulls on the left and on the right and it never seems to bother me or make me struggle :-k

Still patiently waiting for my sons to arrive. I called and wings did tell me that they were out of size Large but that a shipment was waiting in customs being delayed by massive snowfall. Hopefully soon. I directed my son to their website on Christmas and showed it to him, so he knows it is on the way and has started asking every day when it will be here. Hopefully I will get word about it today

Finally arrived the other day! Unfortunately, the sleeves are a bit short, so it is unlikely he will be able to wear it next year, but he loves it anyway!

OK, educate me, folks. Why are my pics not showing up? They are links to Facebook. Normally I set up small web pages for this kind of thing, but I thought this would be easier. For now, I have changed these from img to url tags, but I would still appreciate knowing what I have done wrong. Anyone?

My daughter broke out her Indy gear on Father's Day. It is a shame that the Kids jacket sleeve length is a little short; the jacket would be wearable for many more years if they were a couple inches longer (her old one from 2000 seemed to have longer sleeves, but we gave that jacket away last Christmas). Looks fantastic, and I'm so jealous of her hat!

Thanks, guys! I think she learned how to humour me from her mother.
