Here are a couple of pictures of my new Wested. I am extremely pleased with it, the only issue was they didn't do the XBox stitching on the straps. I can't believe at how excellent the quality of the leather and workmanship is. If you are debating getting this jacket, it is time to listen to everyone on the forum and do it!
I also donned my new Akruba for those asking to see it on.

You look kinda like Kevin Costner in Indygear...(please take that as a compliment). The gear looks great!

The hat and jacket both look excellent. Congratulations on your newest acquisitions.

I wish I'd have the money to buy that jacket, too.
BTW- I have bashed my Federation to ToD-style fedora.

Very nice setup you have there. The Akruba looks even better on. Congratulations on your acquisition.
Cheers!

Wested just ought to make that feature standard...everyone orders it anyway - makes for a more durable garment.
Looks good WK....looks very supple-the leather creases well at the inside of the elbow. Nice jacket!

Wrightknife,
Glad to see you donning your Temple gear! Finally seeing the Akubra on your head, I'd say you shaped it in ToD style very well. I also like the darkness of the jacket. I too share your enthusiasm for the quality of the jacket. I was very impressed with my Wested Raiders lamb when I got it. Couldn't believe how smooth it felt, and how lightweight it was, yet so warm at the same time!
I think Bogie1943 also has a decent amount of "Temple" gear. Temple of Doom is definetly my favorite movie of the trilogy, but the Raiders look is my favorite.
All in all, great looking gear, my friend. Now, the real question..to distress or not to distress? LOL.
Regards,

Thanks a bunch Strider, I also like the Raiders look! My next hat will be a AB in the Raiders style. The Raiders jacket is a little too high on the waist for me though and I have already sworn to only have 1 jacket.

Thanks IndyTone! I think we ALL would like to feel like heroes. I know I would. I appreciate the thoughts. Maybe I can write a few chapters of the adventures in my new gear sometime.
