Hi Guys,

Whilst watching Last Crusade recently, thoughts came back from the forum in which were comments made about the orrientation of the side straps. I.e Indy's face backwards etc. Well it occurred to me after mentally constructing a possible third jacket the i could ask peter to put the longer strap on the back portion of the jacket and the buckle on the front, in short reversing the sraps and the look. Any thoughts?

Bullit :D

I use this on mine. We use this in the fire service on house bundles ( two links of hose, nozle and gated wye). We strap them together using this method G-man has posted. It hold real well but can come apart with one pull of the strap.

Here's a pic of an original LC jacket side strap. Notice no x-box stitch on this one and the strap is shorter than on the Raiders jacket.
