Good news!
Will do! I really like the fit.Sakis said:Great, enjoy your new jacket and post some pics. Be careful with the tight fitting, I have a 18year old Wested on a daily basis and I have changed the lining twice because it's rubbing against my jeans.

It's best to stick with Authentic Lamb, Goat or Shrunken lamb. Shrunken lamb is not available on the ToD though. I would say Authentic Lamb, but it's brand new looking and has shine you said you weren't keen on with the goat. The shine wears off eventually or you can distress it off.
Re: the pics. You need to host the pictures somewhere like imgur and the post links or embed the links here.

VKDG77 said:So the jacket came in today. I was very scared of how it would turn out and let me tell you. It fits great. Keep in mind I like tight fitting clothing but this is just right. Almost waist high, not too slim but still shows off my upper body figure while looking great. Color is spot on which I was afraid it would be too dark.
I'll post a picture later. I'm going to attempt to shrink the sleeves. For me I like shorter sleeves. These were just a tad too long for my liking , so I'm going to try the shower treatment and shrink the sleeves up. Overall great experience and great jacket

Thank you drone! And also thank you for the response with the TOD. I agree with both you and the Major. I love how they S&L looks but I'd have to sell a few things to cover it.Drones33 said:Excellent, I?m glad you?re happy with it.
VKDG77 said:I have to say, I ordered a Steele and Jones custom tod pre distressed. This jacket runs loops around my wested OTR. I'm not saying wested is poor quality or bad in any way. Just shows how incredible Steele and jones really is.
Major West said:Steele and Jones is definitely worth the extra money; you're paying for the attention to detail only a fan vendor will give you. That said if you know how to distress a jacket properly you can work miracles with an OTR wested. Anyway Let's see some pictures, you still haven't posted any yet.
