Only one pic of their LC back In the video... D-rings and large yoke. Be nice to see how they do the Raiders jacket back. To me, that’s the real test. Looks like nice quality and considerable effort with the details, the above notwithstanding.

The jacket is bade in Pakistan, they claim the jacket is made based on movie.(I asked which model their jacket based on,I was thinking maybe it's wested or TN).
The price is around $360 and it is non-returnable, custom order is 10%.

I like the leather a lot, the color is accurate and looks thick enough for LC jacket, their antique cow leather is better for CS jacket.

When I saw the title of this thread, I was expecting to see Robert DeNiro wearing a leather jacket, chewing a cigar, and saying something about doing, "Fourteen years in a 4x9 cell with men who were less than human."

Anyway, never mind. :oops:

With these sorts of offerings it is not always certain that the photo is of the jacket you are getting. A common ploy is to use someone else's worth jacket for your photos and sell junk. But I Cady may be more ethical than that.

They are solid. Not one of the type of vendors you refer to.

The pictures look decent. Not the most screen accurate, but not bad, you'll get a well manufactured jacket and the leather's probably decent.

The LC one looks like a copy of the Wested LC/CS. ie. Double seam arm holes and overstitched hem at the bottom of the jacket. Not seen a pic of the insides, if it has facings then that confirms it.

The Raiders looks a repro of their basic Raiders too with the tall pockets.

Weird, I do know there used to be a guy who would bulk buy Westeds to resell in Japan, nothing wrong with that as long as they weren't undercutting the UK retail price, which I'm sure they are not. Some Japanese collectors are happier buying from a Japanese language site, the others might even be them overlabelling Westeds though I have no idea why you would do that. If he's set up his own production line then... well everyone tries that eventually.

Glad I'm not the only one. But I am old enough to imagine DeNiro and Mitchum.

I'm old enough to remember when it was a novel called The Executioners.
