: : Glad to hear about your new jacket. Is it lighter than the new lambskin Raiders? How would you describe the feel of the leather? Sturdier lining? D-rings or what? Are you planning on posting your own pics of this jacket here, and/or IndyGear?
: : You know we'd appreciate it!

I'll work on that over the next few days. Yes, it is slightly lighter then the new lambskin Wested. It is very soft to the touch, but is more rigid as compared to the lambskin - I cannot imagine having the problem of the bi-swing pleat relaxing over time as my lambskin Wested did in a matter of days. The lining is a poly-cotton blend, and feels more substantial then the cotton in my Wested LC. It did itch a bit yesterday - like a new shirt will sometimes itch. I gave is a bit of steam when I got home and it went away - probably would have anyway in a day or so.

D-rings - yes, though I've found a trick that is a quick fix. Just turn the rings so the flat side is outwards. The use your trick (I believe) from the IndyGear FAQ of pulling the excess back through. It looks great.

Cheers!

Patterson
