Well, word I have - once confirmed by Peter himself, as well as Noel Howard - was that nothing used in ToD was a Wested product. Seems Peter broke ranks and did some work on a Bond film without going through Bermans, and was sumarily "snubbed" when it came time to make ToD. When you look at the details of the jackets on screen, they're just not the same jacket you see in Raiders - collar shape, pocket shape, side strap configuration, pronged buckles vs. slides. In Peter's defense, I understand Ford hated that jacket, though, which may have opened the door when it came time for Last Crusade.

As far as specifics on the maker - I'd check with Noel Howard. He actually has an original ToD jacket he has allowed visitors to examine.

Hope this helps!
