General jacket lingo question?

Post by archvile »

Hi, as I'm new to this whole Indiana Jones jacket thing I have a few questions? First, what exactly is a gusset? Second, do Wested jackets come with gussets as standard? And lastly, has anyone purchased a jacket from www.flightjackets.com yet? Thanks 8)

Check out the main site at IndyGear.com for your specifics.

A gusset is an added piece of leather under the arm to help ease restricted movement that some experience. You have to specify them with Wested, but come standard on the FlighSuits jacket. You should also peruse the Leather jacket board as these are discussed often. You can use the search function to ease your quest.

Does that sound familiar to anybody? Next is "My name is Archvile and I am an Indyholic..." Welcome to the forum! Do not say you were not warned... :wink:
