I just got the jacket from Krzysztof Smigiel and Im very pleased with it.
The delivery was 3 days, great communication and the jacket fitted as if it was made especially for me.

The jacket looks and smells brand new and the scratches made by mr. Krzyztof himself is very hard to see with the naked eye. I was impressed how light this lamb jacket is comparred to my cow-jacket.

Here are some quick pictures I took the minute I was able to try the jacket on.

The jacket looks great on you!
Do you like the lamb better than the cow?

Whats not to like. The lamb sure is nice to wear. The cow-leather is very durable but also very heavy to wear. I like them both but the Wested lamb is my favorite. The cow-jacket is not made by wested but has been a good and cheap substitute until now.

The used wested lamb jacket was about half the price of one from Peter´s Wested shop in the UK.

Wow, that's a perfect fit! Well done!

P.S. Cool looking jacket, but we gotta do something about that hat

Yeah I know Marc. I guess your the man to talk to when Im ready for a real Indy fedora ) The fedora I have right now was the first piece of Indy gear I got. It was about 14 years ago. I guess I have been holding on to it a bit too long now. Maybe it´s time for a change. I will still keep the old one though, it was what started my Indy interest.

You could just have it reblocked.

Yeah, I hope reblocking my old hat will do the trick. I will try to bash it with steam and see if it looks better.

Perfect fit, Ace. Congrat.

...Hey Marc is inhere too

Better listen, Ace. When it comes to hats (AND other things too I´d better add) Marc knows what he is talking about!

Best regards

VERY nice, Ace!
I especially like the way it fit in the third pic. Very well proportioned.

Congrats, pal.

Your jacket looks awesome Ace. It's great when you score a nicely cared for Wested at a screaming good price. I should know, I just scored a few myself.
Congrats,

Ace,
Allow me to second some of the comments, that jacket looks great. It looks as if it were made for you. Wear it well!

That is what we Wested owners call a smuk skindjakke!

Seriously, it looks like it's been tailor-made for you, Ace. Wear it well, and in time... you know where to get the... acetone - MWAHAHAHAAA!

Yeah, yeah, nice jacket, but who cares about the jacket??? LOOK AT THAT IDOL!!!!!

However, if I can peel my eyes away from the idol for a minute, it certainly appears that the jacket does indeed look like it was tailor made for you! Congratulations on the good buy! It looks good on you!

Now back to that idol.............


Ian

You know, that's a nice idol...

CAPTION CONTEST!



Y'all know the drill... what are they saying to each other? Some helpful examples:

"Hmm... what was the name of the bad guy in Tron...?"

"*sigh*"


(swiped from Family Guy, but it seemed to fit.)

Ace: "What are YOU looking at??"
Idol "What are YOU looking at???"

Canyon wrote:Great pics, Ace.

You just couldn't help yourself with the idol, could you?

No I could not

Thanks for all your feedback guys. I dont think I could have taken the risc buying a used jacket if it hadn't been for all you great research posts in this forum. I made a lot of measures on my old jacket trying to determine what size was best for me and suddenly "WHOAW" Krzysztof had a jacket in just that size in the classifieds. What luck !

I think I will contribute to the caption contest.
Ace: Looks a little short to me but hey I think I'll grab it.
Idol: Who are you calling short you big insensitive ape

Thanks Ace

Hi Ace,

I am really glad you enjoy the jacket. I also agree with others that the jacket looks great on you!

Take care on your adventures!
Krzysiek

Ace: I recognize that ringtone... Where is it coming from?
Idol: It's called the Raiders march and I come with no batteries, so have a lucky guess!

Good one Swindy.
Keep em comming.

Ace: You want talent, watch this. When I squeeze my chin, it looks like a tiny Hovitos butt

Idol: That's great kid, but I don't think it's gonna get you a part in Indy IV.

Idol: -I'm not the idol you're looking for.
Ace: -You're not the idol I'm looking for.



Regards,
Swindy

Ace: "Uuuuhh.. I'll take the cheeseburger combo meal."

Idol: "Would you like to super size that for an extra buck?"

WHWHWHWHWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Sorry, Bink tipped over the Jerry-meter...

(Honorable giggle for the tiny little hovitos butt...)

Nice jacket


Ace: "You think I need to shave?"
Idol: "No, the five o'clock shadow works on you, now let's discuse those pants."

The pics with your back to the camera, very creepy; think "Blair Witch"

Ace: "You sure are one ugly little cuss."
Idol: "You ain't no Cary Grant your self."

Ace: "I was thinking of going to a plastic surgeon and getting an Indy scar on my chin, what do you think?"
Idol: "…No comment."

Ace: "Well, we've beaten off the bad guys, rescued the damsel in distress and got home in one piece. So what shall we do now?"

Idol: "How's about a game of 'pull my finger'?

Ace: "What are we going to do tonight, Idol?"

Idol: "Same thing we try to do every night, Ace. Try to take over the world!"

(cue music)

Ace: "When I said I wanted to be on American Idol, this isn't quite what I had in mind.."

Idol: "You call that singing?! A chainsaw has a better singing voice than you!"

And the hits just keeps on comming....
Guess theres no end to the possible captions you guys can come up with for that picture.

How about this one:

Ace: Are you supposed to be the ancient chachapoyan artifact. ??
Idol: Are you supposed to be the Indiana Jones look-alike ?
Ace: I might depends on who's asking
Idol: Me, Im the Marion look-alike. So you're my date for tonight.

Idol: “Don’t look at me like that, I’m not the one who broke into your temple and stole you off of your pedestal. Now where’s that French toast I asked for 20 minutes ago? And don’t forget the extra butter!”

ACE: Why does that idol keep staring at my groin ?
IDOL: Hmmmm .....Indy had a better package.

I loved Pinky and the Brain.

Great looking jacket!

Ace great looking jacket!



Now how about

Ace:"Will Indy IV ever be made?"
Idol:"The outcome is doubtful."

Ace: Are you the talking idol?
Idol: ...

Idol: Is that goat, lamb or cow?
Ace: I'll tell you the hide, you'll tell me if you're MK, Magnoli, Gobler or eBay!!
