Congrats on new jackets! Could you do me a favour and tell me how much inches of room does Raiders have in chest and in waist? I mean how much does it taper.

The one thing I could never get on with my Nowaks was the lining - some kind of polyester that makes you sweat easily. Maybe it was screen accurate - but I prefer cotton. Both my shrunken lamb and my 747 had the same lining and I just couldn't get on with it.
Nice looking jackets though and a good fit on each.

Thanks guys! These jackets are truly the best leather jackets I have ever owned. And I have owned Indy Jackets from just about every major vendor we have! Since getting these Nowaks I have decided that I don't need any of those jackets anymore. These have scratched my itch for Indy jackets to sort of speak.
tomek- I can do that for you. It will just be a little while until I can dig out my measuring tape... or the e-mail Riley sent me with the measurements of this jacket.
pagey- I have never worn these jackets in warm weather so I never had that problem with it. Although I notice that the lining on my Raiders Shrunken Lamb is different than the lining in the CS. I am not sure what material they are though.

Riley just sent me my 3rd TNO jacket! It's a Surrogates in 747 leather. It's fantastic and Riley NAILED the specs!

i wasnt critisizing you. but in general i tend to like less grainy jackets. i like the smooth look of jackets with little or no grain to them

I know- but the real Raiders jacket is not a smooth jacket at all.

Wow! I don't know how I missed this thread. Spectacular jackets, Nick!! I honestly can't decide whether I prefer the Raiders jacket or the Crystal Skull jacket. That 747 jacket looks very spiffy as well. Congrats!

Thanks Josh! I myself prefer the Raiders over the Crystal Skull jacket. It seems... more "me." The Crystal Skull jacket has a lot of room to move around, so I usually wear it when I am wearing a sweater or something underneath.

I'm the exact way with my Raiders jacket. I prefer my Wested LC because it fits my gear better, but my Wested Raiders is more comfortable. I wear it most often as a fall, early winter jacket.

I'm exactly the same. Although right now I am just wearing my new Surrogates jacket. It's hard not to wear a jacket you just got!
