I just spoke to Tony for half an hour and ordered a jacket. He is such a nice man. I know he is honored and humbled by his involvement in KotCS. The way he describes his jacket makes you realize what you are paying for. He reinforces them from the inside! I think this thing is going to be built like a tank. He says they will ship the 22 and I should have it the next day. If you are looking for a new jacket stop and think about the fact that if you like the KoTCS jacket you can have THE ONE. This movie and the internet give us the rare chance to get it right the first time. No looking at still for 30 years trying to guess what is right. It is alot of money but cosider that many of us end up going through many jackets trying to get one that is perfect so why get it right the first time. I might be jumping the gun but in my conversation I realize this is the one jacket I have been waiting for.

I guess I will have to call to order. I tried sending him an email, but he must be really busy. Congrats on your jacket. Hopefully I'll be joining you in line for one of the 777 jackets.

from what i've seen from KT's an Castor's....wested makes a mean CS jacket.
i honestly was contemplating getting one for myself thinking that TN's jacket was going to be overpriced......but i tip my hat off to kryptonian for sharing the news.
wested makes the CS jacket in their novapelle hide....at least thats what KT's jacket is. i just got a wolverine x-1 jacket in novapelle and that hide is aaaaaaaawesome!!! thats why i was thinking of going to wested again for a CS jacket in novapelle.
i may still bug Peter for a raiders novapelle once i grow another kidney to replace the one i gave up for the nowak jacket. i concur with han jones, mr. nowak is extremely professional in customer service.
from what bernie pollack said about him being just as nice as steve, i thought......really??? another guy thats just as nice as mr. delk??? no way....now i'm starting to believe

Tony is a great guy. I would love to have a long lunch with Tony and Steve. I feel honored to say I have been able to speak with them both at great length. I can't wait to see this jacket.

Platon quote: "Secret formula, no thanks" - looks like Platon has a real problem with Nowak. It's curious. Does he have shares in Wested? Is he Peter's long lost son? Is he being paid by Wested? Is he just being an overly loyal fan? Read Platon's posts on Nowak and they are all indirect ads for Wested.
By the way - I'm not annoyed by this - I just find it amusing.
Cheers

Reserve a seat at that table for me! Even though I haven't had the honor of speaking to Steve yet, if he's anything like Tony, it's little wonder the community loves him! I'm still also a fan of Wested though, but here's how it works: I admire Wested's product, but I admire Tony.

There are people on both sides doing this.
Genuinely disappointing.

I'm getting sick of people on these boards knocking the price tag etc, As far as I'm concerned Tony is running a business and is allowed to charge whatever he feels is appropriate, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY IT!, there is plenty of choice out there. I spoke to Tony when I ordered and found him a great guy, I really like the look of the new Jacket. As it happens I will also be ordering a raiders at some point soon from Wested, choose what you like just drop the heavy handed moaning. I'm here because I enjoy the films and enjoy this hobby what are you here for?
