: : Yes, it's all true! I mean the good stuff about the jacket. I'm
: : wearing it as I write this.
: :
: : First things first. I received exactly what I ordered. All my
: : requests were honored. This is an undistressed lambskin LC version
: : with the cotton lining. It has a zippered interior pocket on the
: : left and leather facings on the inside of the collar as well as
: : on both sides of the zipper. Even the snaps are there.

: : Fit and finish are absolutely exceptional! The jacket is made
: : extremely well. Every stich is in the right spot! It is very
: : obvious that this jacket was not bought off the rack, but
: : custom-made.

: : I gave my measurements to Peter and the little tag says it's a size
: : 46 (British). Since I added an inch to my shoulder width, I can
: : wear a thin sweater under the jacket. The color is a very nice
: : and dark chocolate brown. The jacket smells great!. it also seems
: : to have been pretreated with a conditioner (the famous Letap?).

: : Gregg, you were asking about pocket dimensions. The interior pocket
: : is 18cmx14cm/7.25"x6.25", exterior pockets are 18cmx16cm/7.25"x6.5".
: : The handwarmer pockets are useable, although I don't have small
: : hands.

: : Upon arrival I had to pay a customs fee of US$ 17.15. It seems that
: : the package was shipped on June 20. That suggests it took 7 days
: : from London to San Francisco via Parcel Force Worldwide. Of course
: : my jacket had gone on a little side trip to Canada before!

: : Did I mention that a certificate stating authenticity comes with
: : the jacket? It is signed by Mr Botwright himself...

: : Was it worth the wait? Absolutely. I will do it again! Just make
: : sure you know when and how it is sent. For your piece of mind get
: : the TRACKING NUMBER!

: : Last thing: Thanks to all those people who have volunteered so
: : much information on the jacket. You are commended!

: I've been watching your plight, along with the others in the same boat, in silence as I knew that once your jacket was in your hands, all would be revealed. I'm happy to see that it has. Congratulations, and enjoy! Regards. Michaelson

Thank you, Michaelson! It sure was worth getting some grey hair
and with Patterson's latest news regarding a more streamlined
production, things should go more smoothly in the near future.
I'm already wondering if I should get a 'Raiders' next...
