Ordering a TN by Riley which Shrunken Lamb color to choose?

Post by IndianaChris711 »

Hi everyone, I just got a response back from Riley and he sent me this picture below of this darker version of the 000 shrunken lamb next to the 000 jacket. At least that is what he said in his e-mail. Is this new darker version any different than the 000 shrunken lamb that people already have already. Should I go for this darker shrunken lamb 000 style or just the regular 000 shrunken lamb. Just would want to spend my money wisely and seeking other opinions before deciding. Any thoughts?

No one will no the leather and color better than Riley. I would suggest asking him these questions. Ask him how much darker is it? Which does he think is more like the Screen used jacket Tony had in hand. He will know best and steer you in the right direction.

The #000 jacket isn't shrunken lamb. It's just lamb; matte lamb, Tony called it. Nice colour though.

Yes the #000 jacket is different, and its a lighter colour. If you want the Raiders color, I suggest going with the darker coloured skins.

the only way for a raiders jacket IMO is a dark almost blackish color. look at the film, what do you see? do you actually see the lgiht brown version on film even though it is in fact original? I only can see it once or twice in the movie. 90% of the film we see a dark dusty blackish jacket. so like Travis, go dark! :tup:

I believe there are some even darker shrunken lamb jackets here, for example Yojimbo's.
The darker, the better ;)

I have to agree with most of the comments above. The darker colour looks lovely. Definitely the way to go!

Don't make me Destroy is the next line I believe Mitch :P ;) I believe I will JOIN the Dark Side of the jackets... Thanks guys for pointing that the 000 is just a lamb jacket, not even shrunken lamb. I was really confused, why he put that jacket in there. Oh well. I did e-mail him back asking him which one is more SA, but have not heard from him yet. I will just go ahead and e-mail him again when I have what I want to say as far as the embroidery goes on my jackets. Thanks guys for your opinion, I figured the DARK SIDE was the way to go.
