Actually, the quality of construction is pretty good. Frankly, his Indy jacket pattern is a bad copy of a Wested(pre-recent revisions), and he clearly does not understand how a bi-swing pleat is supposed to work. The jacket pictured is not what was delivered, and that was disappointing. The underlying construction is top notch, though. I hear good things about his A2's and G1's, and I would tend to believe it. The absolute best thing? The vintage goat was the most interesting leather I've seen. It was more red (russet) than most would probably like, but he claimed it to be actually 40 years old - really! And - tell me if you agree Shawnkara - I would tend to believe him.

Bottom line - interesting jacket, but way overpriced. The Indy jacket is not in his core strengths. I think if the A2 bug ever bites me, I'd be a customer.

Cheers!

Patterson
