Wested and the Wolverine Jacket

Hi,

Like others I've been trying to source the supplier of the
Wolverine biker jacket from the X-Men movie, but had no luck.
So, of course, I turned to good old Peter Botwright at Wested to
see if he could help and he said he can (Hoorah for Peter!). It, of
course, will only be a replica designed from various shots I've
supplied from the film but with Peter's/Wested's expertise I have
no doubt it'll be as close as dammit !!! I've noticed elsewhere on
the forum others speaking of having a Wolverine jacket made for
$400+ (hello to meltdown and Kittlemeier) but Peter is going to
do it for Ł165 (including P&P in the UK). I'll post pics if anyone is
interested when the job's done.

Also, I see a lot of you bitching about the delivery times of
Westeds, etc. Well, do you want it good or do you want it now!!!
In my dealings with Peter and his team (I have the Raiders jacket
and the Tom Cruise jacket from Mission:Impossible) they can't
seem to be able to do enough to help and their product is
second to none, and I'm sure you'll all agree the Wested Indy
jacket is superb. I salute you Peter & Co at Wested for all your
efforts in putting movie magic on all Indyfan backs, and wish you
much continued success (and a Little Nazi Monkey salute to all
you moaners!!!)
