I have 2 1/2. I have a Wested Raiders lambskin, which is my only true Indy jacket I suppose. I also have a black goatskin from US Wings. The 1/2 goes to my Magnoli Vintage Adventure Jacket which is very similar to an Indy jacket. That one is cow hide.
Basically, I have my heavy leather, my light leather, and my black leather. One more should make me happy... maybe two...

Jeez, I really am an amatuer at this! I only have one...a Wested LC lambskin. Which I love to death and intend to be buried in!
When I was a kid and the first movie came out, I commandeered my Dad's military flight jacket (an A2, I think, it had a furry collar) and wore it almost to pieces. It's still in a closet around here somewhere, in the last stages of disintegration. He got it in between Korea and Vietnam so I guess it's entitled to show some wear!

I got two from Wested but I need to loose some weight. I've become fatter over the years and my first one doesn't fit me that well anymore and my second is still quite okay but it doesn't sit comfortable anymore. So I usually wear my A2 which fits just fine.
I should loose some weight or else I should by a complete new one.

i have waaaaaaaaay too many.......about 10 or 11 i think. and that's just indy jackets. my lateset acquisition is a brand new pre-italian/british made belstaff trialmaster classic (alot of you won't care or won't know what that is but i had to jump several hoops to get it )
i'm looking to top off my collection with the tony nowak jacket when it becomes available.....and if it's not at a ludicrous price....that way i can justify wearing the bag on the outside of that jacket

2 now, Wested Raiders Goat and USW Vintage Cowhide. Had 5 others at one point, USW Rooskin (didn't fit right), Wested Lamb (too thin/cheap feeling), Wested Cow (too sqeaky), 2 different G&B Goat Expeditions (both from clearance page, neither fit, sent back). Wested Goatskin is the best of the bunch.

that's the diference between us and Indiana jones..he was a movie figure and we are the fans that try to achieve his gear look,so of course he wouldn't care...he just put something on without any detail atention about pocket flaps are too big or too small ...CM wrote: or caring about the design of his jacket.
high regards

authentic color. It's very nice. I'd heard that it would be really stiff, but it wasn't at all. Nice and soft, and very tough (just like people describe horse-hide as being). I once fell off a moving vehicle with it on and it really saved me from a lot of scrapes and bruises, while only taking a few scratches itself.
It comes HIGHLY recommended! :junior: -M

Lets see, I currently own:
1) Wested Lamb Raiders style from around the year 2000
2) Mgm Cowhide Coopers Indy jacket bought in 1990
3) Christies auction- NYC in 1992- LC cowhide, very distressed but in great shape. Afraid to wear it.
4) US Wings vintage cowhide
5) G&B Goat expedition. Love this one a lot.
And probably 15 or more other Indy jackets over the last 19 years, I either sold or gave away.
Best regards,
Indiana_7
