A Wested that Actually fits Me!!!

I got this a couple of months ago from Holt - a thick lambskin Wested LC jackets. It took a chance, based on the measurements he gave me, and it fit very nicely. Better than the long-gone custom one I ordered as my first Indy jacket back in '06. The color and finish resembles the washed lambskin I used to own from Magnoli.
Anyhow, I waited this long to finally get pictures of it. One outdoors, one indoors. Not the most dynamic, but since it was 90+ degrees, and I'm not much on action poses to start with...
Before you ask, the rest of the gear (same in both photos) is;
Hat; Adventurebilt Raiders
Shirt; Noel Howard Raiders
Pants; What Price Glory, lighter weight wool blend
Webbing Belt; Todd's Costumes (early run).

Best looking Indy pants that don't completely murder the wallet. The color and texture are great. That said, they have a lot of room for improvement. Considering what I did pay for them, the assembly work should be much cleaner and straighter. If you do buy a pair, look them over really good, in case an exchange is in order (my first pair were a mess).
