Thanks PH!
I took the same approach with my Wested that I'm taking now with the G&B, by trying to allow nature to take its course and let the jacket distress through normal wear and tear. I left the Wested alone for the first couple of years, and the natural distressing worked fairly well. It wasn't until about a year or so ago that I decided to go "gung-ho" and distress the Wested using some artifical means (sandpaper, mink-oil, knives, etc.). That worked out well and I think the Wested looks great. And since I've already got a nice, distressed Indy jacket in the Wested, it's allowing me to go "all natural" when it comes to the G&B.
