Here's my USW Limited KOTCS that came today..

Post by Venkman »

Well, I was pretty sure I ordered a large, then was fretting when I saw how big the other pics looked. Today I received mine in the mail, and they actually sent me a medium, which as it turns out, is pretty comfy. Sleeve length is good, and I could definitely fit a tshirt with sweater/sweatshirt underneath if so desired..

And with the rest of my gear:

Almost ready for May 22! Still got some wested stuff to come, Aldens of course, and a bullwhip on the way from bullwhips.org. Getting there though!! (My white close enough shirt is at the cleaners)

That jacket looks really nice. The sleeves look just like those in the newest pictues from KOTCS.

It must be exciting to have the gear you're wearing in the picture, and know that the rest is just on the way! :D I love waiting for new gear (except for my AB - because that's just *killer!*).

Lookin' good! I'm not a huge fan of the CS jacket, but it looks like it fits you nicely, and looks like the one I keep seeing in these pictures from... idk, some movie... :lol: :wink:

Nice fit.

It looks like a standard predistressed leather though, lighter than the photos we've seen.

The variability of colour from one panel to the next on a couple of these jacket is... disconcerting.

Why? We've seen exactly the same color variation from jacket maker to jacket maker when it comes to flash photography of pre-distressed leather. Sometimes with even the same jacket from shot to shot.

Venk......
Your jacket looks Great. Be glad they sent you the wrong size.

As luck would have it, my USW KOTSC Jacket came today, also. After much fretting about receiving a large, I think it looks pretty good. However, I've ordered a Medium to compare. One will be for sale, for sure. I will let all know which one I'll be selling, since I've had several requests for the Large.

Many Thanks
Randall

Based on your measurements, I think I'm going to like the Medium a lot more than the Large. We'll see.

Many Thanks

Very good looking jackets on both of you. Those pics make it tempting to get yet another jacket!
