Maybe overthinking it ... we know they travelled by Sub at periscope depth from an Egyptian port (likely Alexandria) Now .. weirdly the onscreen map has them sailing East past Malta and onto Greece...

He clearly is .. in the first program there are a lot of shots of trucks etc taken in what looks to be the Tunisian Raiders locations .... its supposed to be vague african scenery but there was a lot...

Too true .. As you say the thinness is key and being an 'old git' i remember from back in the 80's leather jackets were all super thin ... it was obviously the trend. I'm not a fan in any way of...

Thanks for that ..

its still a little shiny compared to the TOD even though the hide is exactly the same ... i put some AutoGlym leather feed on it straight after the distressing which got rubbed...

So here are some quick images of the Jacket with a weeks wear and some limited distressing on it ...

Hi

I just received post Christmas my New Steele & Jones Raiders jacket ..... I asked for similar/same leather as the S&J's Temple Jacket ... i''l remind you by posting this image of that one
...

Nice jacket ... clearly you've been doing a bit of distressing to it ..... Is that a specific hide they used or the standard brown lambskin?
you on Twitter as well as Instagram?

I've had a couple of MK VII's recently where the webbing loops that go around metal hoops have started top decay. My original bag was not so bad but the immediate replacement i brought had the...

Hi

i have a wested Hero ... i love it but its a size 44 and just a tad too large for me. Its been distressed as you can see from the images. less than six months old. The hero does and is supposed...

I have to say its a great jacket. A lot of effort went into it on Diego's side only for me to then mess up and distress/degrade it. If you're not familiar with the black art of distressing i'd...

so to continue on ...

Wear wise after a couple of weeks its softening down really nicely ...
Comfort wise its awesome .. like wearing a feather and terrifically cool in the heat ... now we...

I Edited this and posted a load more pictures but got bumped off before i finished so i'll be back ... suffice to say its an awesome jacket

Been meaning to post these for a while ... post going to Comic Con in london ..

Generally I'd say the leather is more tricky to distress at first but after a while it really takes a good...

OK so i did a bunch of Weathering/distressing last night and since then i hit it post weathering with a lot of Leather Feeding lotion which has knocked it back .. until that fully dries and lightens...

As you guys hopefully can see .... my new S&J's Temple of Doom jacket from Diego and Roberto is awesome.

My experiences of buying jackets to date have always carried with them a little ... ok a...

Very not good. Bad news coming Doctor Jones! ... Lol

I'm with you on that one ... its the best leather i've ever had on a jacket ... its quite stunning and for a Doom Jacket has all the nice warm undertones as well as being able to take a hell of a...

First .. NB I'm pretty darn sure Peters talking about the Website revamp NOT the jacket. Rebecca has a design background and has been helping him revamp the whole Wested site look .. you'll have...

Here my Best and favourite TOD Jacket ... .. this was made the same year Peter got the NH jacket ... its in an oil-pulled hide ... with heavy distressing ... the sleeves were made 1.5 inches longer...

It's not a better fit, it's a completely different fit. I've had six Wested TOD's ... I love them but they are not the most comfortable jacket being generally tighter fit overall. The Hero on the...

In fairness having just posted about utterly destroying a jacket by buggering about with the distressing to the point of oblivion ... i should be careful what i say about it! lol

I've got the Hero in the standard Dark Brown Lambskin and i love it .. the Jackets been distressed by hand which gives it a more realistic look .. the leather is very hard wearing .. I have to say...
