US Wings Russet Indy compliments

Post by Kokopelli »

This is the jacket I bought a month ago at the retail store. I wear this often, and I have had more compliments on this jacket than every other Indy jacket Ive had combined! I'm talking perfect strangers stopping me to compliment and ask about it. I try to direct them to Wings, and to here before their eyes glaze over as I get into how all four movie's jackets were different...

That is a beautiful looking jacket, love the red tones of the russet.
I just went to the site and the one pictured in russet looks very shiny and has a complete different looking leather.
Is yours one and the same or is this a different Indy US Wings in the russet.

Love that jacket, wear it in good health.
And if ever I =n NH and I see you wearing it, I'll sure to compliment you. And my eyes won't glaze over.

FYI, they’re on sale now for $195 as they’re clearing stock for new merchandise. Only 20 left.

As an owner of the russet jacket, they do not come all shiny like those pics on the website. They treat the leather...

yes- not at all shiny and 'crunchy' looking.
I'll get a couple pics of me wearing it up soon.

I had one in this leather and I can say I really liked the leather. Ended up going to charity as the lengths on the new USW Indy jackets were too long for me as I wear a XXL. It looked a over couple inches too long in the back and I like them a little longer than the movie versions.

Still a great jacket for the price.
