: Here is just a quick review. I need time to get to know this jacket, to give a proper review. But I know you are all dieing to know, so keep in mind I am still in the honeymoon phase.
: I will give you the bottom line first: This IS a Raiders jacket! The box arrived this morning. I felt like for the first time I was wearing a true Indiana Jones, Raiders of the Lost Ark jacket. It is SO cool!(please excuse the gush) I know you have heard this again and again, but I have to say it again: The craftmanship and materials are top notch. I love the cut. The sleeves are a bit long, but that is an easy fix. The coller, the cargo pockets, it all looks like the movie. The zipper is nickle. I love the lining. (Unlike the Wested satin, it's cozy.) It is a joy to wear. The one thing wrong is, it's not chrome goatskin. They made it in lamb by mistake. Fs is going to make me a new one, but I have to say I almost want to keep this one. The FS lamb is superb. Nothing like my Wested lamb at all. It has fantastic grain to it. It will be a hard choice :-)
: I did take a couple of QUICK pics. The are a little decieving. The pants I am wearing have a high waist. Also I am not built like Ford due to my pizza diet(doctor's orders). But hey! I don't have "Body by Jake" to be my personal trainer like Harrison did either. So enjoy the pics for now. I am sure Patterson will have much better ones soon. You enjoy the pics, I have a truck to catch :-)
