: : : What exactly makes Peter's ToD jacket a bad copy besides the size of the pockets?
: : Off the top of my head...
: : -Side strap placement and length. Very short straps, with rectangular pronged buckles - not slides or rings.
: : -Storm flap is too damned wide on the Wested
: : -Side vent is too long. It's only about 3 inches long on the ToD.
: : -Collar is wrong shape, though I don't know that I've ever seen a Wested with the same shape of collar.
: : -You said other than the cargo pockets, right?
: : -Bi-swing pleat should be lower across the back, and the seams should line up pretty close - within 1/2-3/8 inch.
: : I'm probably forgetting something...
: : Cheers!
: : Patterson
: : Actually, the side cut is two inches on the TOD jacket. Regards, Dr.Brody
